2017 Cadillac CTS-V

Having launched for the 2016 model year, the high-performance Cadillac CTS-V Sedan gets a few new features and updates for the 2017 model year.

The most notable 2017 CTS-V changes are new features that include:

  • Following Distance Indicator
  • Rear Camera Mirror, which is included in the available Luxury Package
  • Auto ventilated seats
  • Cadillac CUE updates that include CUE Collection and Teen Driver:
    • Collection provides access to browse, select and install apps to your vehicle. Apps include Pandora, iHeart Radio, The Weather Channel and more (data plan rates may apply)
    • Teen Driver is a configurable feature that lets you activate customizable vehicle settings associated with a key fob to encourage safe driving behavior. It can limit certain vehicle features, and it prevents certain safety systems from being turned off. An in-vehicle report gives you information on your teen’s driving habits and helps you to continue to coach your new driver
