2024 Cadillac CT4-V Gets New Velocity Red Color: First Look

The 2024 Cadillac CT4-V adds four new exterior colors to its palette: Cyber Yellow Metallic, Coastal Blue Metallic, Black Diamond Tricoat, and Velocity Red. Here’s our first look at the new Red hue.

Assigned RPO code G7C and touch-up paint code WA-130X, Velocity Red is one of nine exterior colors offered on the small luxury performance sedan, which include:

  • Summit White
  • Black Raven
  • Argent Silver Metallic
  • Midnight Steel Metallic
  • Radiant Red Tintcoat
  • Black Diamond Tricoat (new for 2024)
  • Coastal Blue Metallic (new for 2024)
  • Cyber Yellow Metallic (new for 2024)
  • Velocity Red (new for 2024)

The Velocity Red color is an extra-cost item that adds an additional $625 to the sedan’s price, and can be combined with all interior colorways.

For reference, here are all two available interior colorways offered on the 2024 CT4-V:

  • Jet Black with Jet Black accents
  • Sangria with Jet Black accents

The 2024 Cadillac CT4-V arrives with some important updates and changes compared to the preceding 2023 model year, including a new Red Accent Package arriving for the 2024 CT4-V.

Additionally, the 2024 Cadillac CT4-V and CT4-V Blackwing both get additional elements to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the V-Series sub-brand, namely a 20th Anniversary grille header decal and unique instrument cluster wake-up animation.

The 2024 Cadillac CT4-V rides on the GM Alpha 2 platform and is equipped as standard with the turbocharged 2.7L I4 L3B gasoline engine, developing 325 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel and all-wheel drivetrains are available, both connecting to the GM ten-speed automatic transmission.

Here is everything that’s new and different on the 2024 Cadillac CT4-V.

Recently, Consumer Reports gave the 2024 Cadillac CT4 a Recommended rating.

Overall, Cadillac ranked average in the Consumer Reports 2024 Reliability Report, though it still placed above the average dependability of U.S. automakers.

Production of the 2024 Cadillac CT4 at the GM Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan began this past July and will end on May 30th. Looking forward, there has yet to be any official confirmation that there will actually be a 2025 Cadillac CT4.

  1. I think the darker red looks better on a luxury sedan.

    1. Bright red looks weird on a fancy 4-door.

  3. I hope they NEVER drop the Mack Truck vertical marker lights. It’s the only styling detail that separates Caddy from the other generic sedans .

  4. When they start repeating articles on information that’s over a year old, you know the model is dead. Long live the CT4.

  5. Saw this color in person on one of the older models and it’s absolutely striking in person. Hope they bring it to the CT5

  6. Say’s it’s offered it FWD or AWD. Clueless it seems…RWD platform guy’s come on.

  7. I read the 2.7 requires premium gas, is that true ? Same engine in the trucks don’t require premium, just regular is my understanding.

    1. Yes it is true. Not the same “tune” as in the trucks.

  8. Hey brad I am not understanding the logic, the trucks actually putout more power so why does the ct4 have to waste more money on premium gas. Seems strange to me and I prefer not to waste money on fuel. Thanks

    1. 325HP vs 310HP
      The V tune has increased timing. Don’t confuse HP vs TQ.

  9. I think the CT4 version of the 2.7 is a tuned version of the gen1 2.7 of 310hp/365t in the 2021 GM 1500 trucks. In 2022 the 2.7(gen2)truck engine got some improvements that included a reinforced block and a torque increased to 430lbft. It would be nice to see Caddy bump up to the new block and spice up the CT4V just a bit.
