The 2020 Cadillac CT5 impresses as a luxurious sedan that pampers its passengers with premium materials while rushing from 0 to 60 MPH in as little as 4.9 seconds. This stylish driving experience makes your ride safer and more interesting with a host of high-tech features.
Enhancing the User Experience
You can control the infotainment features of the Cadillac User Experience (CUE) in three convenient ways: through the 10-inch diagonal multi-touch HD color display, by speaking commands that use Natural Voice Recognition, or with the rotary controller, which is mounted on the center console.
It connects to your compatible smartphone so you can make calls, access selected apps, or listen to text messages while you’re on the highway. You can customize profiles for each driver or connect other mobile devices using three USB ports. A built-in LTE Wi-Fi® hotspot allows for Internet browsing.
CUE lets you keep watch on young drivers who want to drive solo by engaging Teen Driver technology. It encourages good driving habits by letting you set limits on speed and sound volume, automatically turn on available safety features, and mute the audio system until front safety belts are fastened. It also issues an in-vehicle report that encourages you to examine what your youngster did on the trip.
Keeping You Aware
In the 2020 Cadillac CT5, the following technologies keep you aware of your driving environment so you can quickly respond to issues:
• The Following Distance Indicator tells you the gap time between you and the next vehicle to prevent following too closely.
• Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning provides subtle steering turns to tell you that you’re drifting across the highway without engaging a turn signal.
• The Head-Up Display project information like speed or navigation on the windshield, helping you to keep your focus ahead.
• IntelliBeam headlamps automatically switch between low and high beams depending on the presence of additional traffic at night.
• The 8-inch gauge cluster puts important operating info behind the wheel.
Guarding Your Safety
Numerous driver assists increase your confidence behind the wheel by guarding your safety:
• Forward Collision Alert tells you if you’re about to hit the vehicle in front of you with Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking stopping the CT5 if you do not react in time. Front Pedestrian Braking does the same thing when people are involved.
• Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert shows indicators on the appropriate side mirrors when other vehicles enter your blind zone.
• HD Surround Vision reveals virtual bird’s-eye views of your surrounding, making tight maneuvers easier. The Surround Vision Recorder can record and store this video for later playback.
• Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control automatically adapts vehicle speed to traffic changes to keep you at a safe distance from the car in front.
• Automatic Seat Belt Tightening tightens your safety restraints during sudden braking or emergency maneuvers. When conditions turn to normal, the seat belts increase their slack.
Making Parking Easier
To make parking and side views easier, you can power-adjust the power-folding mirrors. When you back into a parking lot, the Rear Camera Mirror projects an unobstructed view of what’s behind you on the rearview mirror. Rear Park Assist provides distance alerts so you know how close you’re getting to hazards in the back of you. If a person walks behind you, Rear Pedestrian Alert tells you that somebody is there. When you back out of a parking spot, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert can tell you if a vehicle is crossing your reverse path.
To help with parallel and perpendicular parking, you can also turn on Automatic Parking Assist to take care of steering and braking. You follow text commands to control gear changes and can override acceleration and braking as needed.
Assisting with Security
To protect your investment in the 2020 Cadillac CTR, the self-powered Theft-Deterrent Alarm can set off warnings when somebody tampers with the vehicle. With Remote Start, you can run the engine before you reach your vehicle. This gives time for Climate Control to make the interior comfortable.
Although OnStar® & Cadillac Connected Services help with such tasks as turn-by-turn navigation through real-time traffic and remote access of your vehicle, their most important function is to help you when the unexpected happens. I
If you’re involved in a crash, built-in sensors automatically connect you a live OnStar Advisor even if you cannot call by yourself. You can also contact an advisor at any time by pressing the red Emergency button. The advisor can then dispatch first responders or roadside assistance to your location. He or she can also help local authorities to locate your vehicle if it is stolen.
