Changes, Updates, New Features
The 2025 CT5-V will see a mid-cycle refresh, headlined by a new front fascia and a revamped cockpit with a new 33-inch display spanning the gauge cluster and center stack.
Although GM revealed the “regular” 2025 Cadillac CT5 in September, it has not yet announced the refreshed CT5-V. We expect that to take place in the first few weeks of 2024.
Note that we have spied prototypes of the 2025 CT5-V on the following occasions:
- July 2023: Refreshed CT5-V Spied in Argent Silver
- October 2022: Refreshed CT5-V spied testing

The 2025 Cadillac CT5-V continues to utilize the Alpha 2Â platform, otherwise written as Alpha II. The architecture underpins GM’s various rear-drive luxury sedans, along with the sixth-generation Camaro muscle car.

The 2025 CT5-V continues being offered in a single seating configuration that features two front bucket seats (providing seating for two), along with a bench seat in the rear (seating three), resulting a 2-3 setup.
Beyond 2025
Beyond the 2025 model year, we expect the current model to remain in production at least through the 2026 model year.
