Cadillac CTS 3rd Generation
2014–2019 · Alpha (stretched) · sedan
Third-generation CTS on GM's stretched Alpha platform (sibling to ATS, Camaro 6th gen). 2.0L LTG turbo I4 (272 hp), 3.6L LFX/LGX V6 (321-335 hp), 3.6L LF3 twin-turbo V6 in V-Sport (420 hp). 2014 Motor Trend Car of the Year. Final CTS-V (2016-2019) runs the 6.2L LT4 supercharged V8 (640 hp). Replaced by the CT5 for 2020.
