The Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing have begun arriving at General Motors dealerships across the U.S., GM Authority can confirm.
Production of the Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and CT5-V Blackwing began at the GM Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan in early July. With production now in full swing, the ultra-performance sedans have begun arriving at dealerships in larger numbers.
While production output at the GM Lansing Grand River plant has been almost non-existent throughout 2021, particularly with regard to regular versions of the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 sedans, GM has prioritized the launch of the new Blackwing sedans to ensure they arrive on time. Production of the standard CT4 and CT5 sedans is expected to return at Grand River later this month.
First production Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing
As we reported previously, the first production 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is a Shadow Metallic example with a Natural Tan interior and black cabin accents. It was also ordered with a GM 10-speed automatic transmission, rather than the base six-speed manual transmission. Details on the first production example of the Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing are not yet known.
Pricing for the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing starts at $84,990, while the slightly smaller and less powerful CT4-V Blackwing starts at $59,990.
As a reminder, the 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is powered by a supercharged 6.2L V8 LT4 engine, which produces 668 horsepower and 659 pound-feet of torque. The CT4-V Blackwing, meanwhile, taps GM’s twin-turbo 3.6L V6 LF4 gasoline engine, which produces 472 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. Both sedans are rear-wheel-drive only, come standard with a six-speed manual transmission and offer a GM 10-speed automatic as an option.
Customers interested in either of the two Cadillac Blackwing sedans can view the various available options and features using GM’s handy online configurator tool, which went live back in May.

These are cool cars, the end of an era…
not
According to the claimed performance statistics, these Blackwings are going to lay waste to all others in their respective categories. I am very interested to see some real world testing. It took long enough for Cadillac to get them to market, but congrats nonetheless. Both appear to be straight-up nasty and you can get a manual as well! 🙂
I just want to see the sales numbers, I hope there is an ample market for GM to sell to. I myself am out of the low height car market, I enjoy the high seated autos, but I am wishing GM all the success in their venture back into this category. (go GM)
Hopefully the 2022 ZL1 1LE Camaro will have the upgraded Horse Power ratings also
Need more information on the Lyriq.
Thanks!
—don’t know how to spell it??
It’s coming next year and the production interior is nowhere near as exciting as what they showed during the debut. I don’t care if it cost $20k more, I hope there is an option to step up to that interior as that’s the only one that interest me so far.
love my 2013 coupe and only wish I had the moola for a new 5.
Just got my VIN number from the dealership on my CT4-V BW. I was able to score one of the 250 for 2022. Can’t wait for the call. Time to start shifting cars around the garage to make room!
I love the new CT5-V because for all the hellcat lovers this is the luxury hellcat and its lighter and it has really competitive pricing and the best part is even the CT4-V with a TWIN TURBO V6 yes a v6 can beat a Scat Pack so I think this is gonna fly off the shelves
Ordered my CT5 BW on February 22 this year and still don’t have a production date……..
