Got my 2021 CT4 last week. This is the most comfortable, easy to drive car I have ever owned. Cadillac fan for life here!! Still learning the bells and whistles it has.
Would the base version handle the same as the one shown in this video ?
It’s been a year. Have you had any problems? Would you say it’s been pretty reliable?
I also would like to hear your 1-year review.
Any updates?
It's good to see Cadillac upping their game
I totally agree with you Adam!
It’s certainly better than their 80s/90s UBOATS
@FBI with everyone trying to go with harsh sporty rides a classy luxurious ride like a mini Rolls would be nice for a change
@FBI yea definitely, they wanna come back to that style again. Cadillac is just my favorite luxury car , im not really a bmw Mercedes guy
American Muscle😄 🇺🇸
Can't wait for the ct4 v blackwing! Whoever is reading this thread have a safe and great weekend!
Thanks Mohammad! That is so wonderful of you to say!
@@RaitisRides thanks for bringing good contents in youtube. Have a great weekend!
@@raheemmohammed4777 What. A. Story.
Still waiting...
@@beastbee0118 on February 1st there gonna reveal the ct4v blackwing as well as the ct4v blackwing.
You’re pumping out excellent content after excellent content like theres no tomorrow. Great job.
Joe Raiti one of the best car reviewers on UA-cam! I like how he gives a perspective in the intro then goes into his routine. Describes the vehicle in his own unique way.
I’m glad I chose to get my ATS 2.0 turbo over this they are basically the same car you’ll notice most interior and trunk rear cabin is all the same as ATS. I mean some of the things that to me make the ATS a better looking car is a real exhaust on my 2.0 turbo with rear diffuser base model the stock rims seem to be a little better looking and the 2.0L turbo produces more power than the 2.0L turbo for the base for the CT4.
The cue system the only thing that sucks about older caddilacs
I've had both the CT4 is way better than the ATS in my opinion
How sad is it that I didn't realize this wasn't a CT4-V video until you got to rear....lol. I think they nailed on looks and it is top 3 in my favorite small luxury sedans for looks.
They made this look really good! I have a CT4-V coming soon!
I’m glad i got mine in 2022 just read the last ct4 is coming off the line may 30 2024..it had a. Year run..after almost two years and 12000 miles i dont regret a thing
Any issues since 2022?
@@user-Thomson1311 no and its going on two years next month with 13000 miles.. i love my cadillac ❤️
Atleast looks better than the interior of the new IS (which doesn’t feel new at all)
That is a good point!
Yet the IS is probably the best deal you or anyone can get in that class of cars. So it is sad to pay a good looking junk while there is better deal in the market. However this caddy is better than the European junk as it seems.
Keep Revving, Riding And Reviewing. 🏎 💨
You are awesome Dan! Thanks for being so supportive!
I remember my mom bought a cadillac in like 2000 but the car was a little older than that but it had a digital dash i thought it was the coolest thing lol
I'm going tomorrow morning to buy this car for me . CT 4 but RED
I just bought the 2022 in red
I love that Raiti's not only lets us hear the cars rev now, but also serves up a takeoff so we can see what that looks like. Very nice!
Thanks Chris! If is on certain press fleet vehicles then I can do that!
That's a real nice sized 4 cylinder too, I like that. Probably should have just thrown in a 3.0 V6 but hey, 310 hp out of a 4 banger ain't half bad! My concern would be reliability. If it were reliable (big if) this model actually intrigues me.
I totally agree with you!
Damn $45K ?!?! A Toyota Tacoma TRD pro brand new cost $48K !!!! Lol this is awesome ! Love Cadillac ! Way better then the Germans ! Lexus also be up there ! Great review ! Cadillac and Lexus ALL DAY BABY
German is way better
I’m glad someone covered this nice color combo. This is the exact combo I’ve been looking at. Looks awesome.
I am so glad that I can bring it to you!
That is a LOT of car for $45k. I've been waiting my whole adult life for a GM / American car I'd buy and finally they exist. So impressed.
Agree, strong powertrain, great tech, really nice interior and beautiful exterior. I've seen quite a few on the road, and these new Caddy's really catch my eye. They look very high-end. Love the new look
This is a very attractive car. I like what Cadillac has been doing lately in the styling department.
Good looking ride Raiti! See what I did there? Hahaha - I’m not a GM guy but I can’t deny when a vehicle looks good! And it does! Thanks for bringing these cars to us Joe, Lori and Crown Vic!! Love it!!! Happy weekend family!
I really appreciate you taking the time to say that and being so supportive!
Joe, what am I missing here? A new absolutely stunningly gorgeous Cadillac that is over 300HP, AWD, and loaded for $40K. ? Huh? I looked up a bunch of these for sale and they are MSRPing for $35-40,000. This sure seems like a lot of car for the money. These things are going to be a song and a dance in 24-36 months off lease. I like it!
Same size as 3 Series.. actually a tad longer. . I would never compare this to the smaller cars.. Genesis G70 costs much less than a 3 series.. but nobody compares that car to a 2 series or CLA .
Man I love how you use food as what could fit in spaces in the vehicles you review. Cause that's most likely what I will be using them for 😆
The way he describes the vehicles makes me wanna buy. Great representation,
Outstanding!
Oh the memories of when Cadillac was the top of the heap. The reliability issues and GM issues are going to cause a deep discount for this to sell. 👍
It will be interesting!
How does your cameraman keep from cracking up with all of your food comparisons? 😂
Taco Bell😂
Jolly ranchers,
M&M’s🤣
8 paydays? Lol
Pandering to the greedy? great job!
The way he ‘up-sells’ the basic dashboard with words like “cornucopia”...brilliant!
Mine is an old 2011 CTS-V. Thanks for the Vlog Joe!
You have a keeper!
Man those older CTS-V's are epic.
The dash cockpit will go fully digital for the 2021 luxury and V for CT4 CT5
We will see how it pans out!
Yah it's a lot nicer I own the 2022 CT4
Cool! The BEST video on UA-cam on the Cadillac CT4. I just bought one with the 2.0 turbo premium luxury Satin Steel with cinnamon leather. Awesome ride!
I was just at the dealer checking these out, along with the XT series. Good stuff.
Is it bringing enough? Tough market.
It is hard to say, but it did have some surprises for me.
I’ll be buying one of these in a few years when they depreciate definitely a cool car
As an ATS4 owner this is slightly longer with more rear legroom. The 4cyl turbo is a couple tenths quicker but I like my V6. The dash material may hide fingerprints but now it looks like dust all over it. I’ll keep mine for a while longer and who knows, maybe I’ll check out the Blackwing. Thanks for sharing it Joe. See ya later for the Lambo review. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Thanks Larry for sharing that great ownership perspective! I appreciate you being so supportive!
Since you drove both, would you say the 2.7 L is worth the extra dough over the standard 2.0 L? Was there a difference in the handling?
Like it a lot, especially in this trim and color. Don't believe it has a real spare tire, though, just an inflator kit.
live as if you were to die tomorrow, and Work as if you were to live forever this is you my friend!!!!
The ats is still the best looking modern caddy IMO
I love the classy interior it has. This is a nice car but the interior looks cheap compared to the ats
I like the brown and beige interior better than the standard black interior that cadillac uses. The brown and beige combination makes the interior look a little more luxurious.
Thanks Joe for reviewing the CT4 i appreciate you so much ❤❤
Im looking at one of these tomorrow. I want mine in the Wave Blue Metallic exterior and Whisper Beige interior
A Cadillac is literally my dream car🥺✨💗
Gnocchi: Meow! I love the sound of the car when coming to the front. 7:13 Puurrr! Purr! Purr! Purr!
I had a feeling you would like that!
Gnocchi: Meow! Thanks
Joes when will you get your hands on the Lexus IS 350 f sport
Actually next week!
@@RaitisRides Oh that's PERFECT!!!!
@@thegoodman3810 AGREED!
Glad to see your going to review the Lexus IS as well. I'm in the market for mid-size. Thanks for all the exceptional videos Joe. I wish I could send you a box of Twinkies.
I just bought 2022 ct4 awd…super happy with my new Cadillac
Dammit Joe stop reading my mind...
It's my many years teaching psychology! LOL
What people don’t understand is these videos are reviews, does not necessarily mean the car is reliable in the long run, this is something you have to discern on your own.
No, the styling is not new, looks like a refresh of the previous ATS. They still didn't fix the only problem I found with the ATS, the small back seat.
Getting famous off of comments day 144, so I can live the dream, live life to the fullest .🚀🤙
Oh, it’s you again! You HAVE to do some urban POV riding, I’d totally watch you play around in the city on a bike
You are doing great!
@@beastbee0118 that would be fun!
I like bumpers that actually bump.
One of my favorite cars! I hope to own one myself in the future! 🔥🔥🔥
I test drove the 2020 ES 350 and it was so noisy on the highway I couldn’t wait to end the drive. I for one will be looking g at these Caddies- maybe the CT5-V. V6 TT.
That’s weird because the LS has something to prevent interior noise
Just got my 2022.. nice so far after day 1…didnt have any issues with the turbo
My best features would be the Bose sound system 😍 and that subwoofer in the back is deep and powerful
Been waiting for this thanks
I am so glad that I can bring it to you!
I love the style of these new Cadillacs. And these new Caddy sedans drive real well, to boot. Speaking of da boot, I think that's the best part of this new CT4-that ducktail/boat-tail butt. Donald Duck butt, esp in white. Love it ;). JV Johnny
A more than beautiful sedan. Interior and exterior is spot on, I see no Zonks. Although the AC vents are very small for the back passengers they should be out on the side pillars, I’ll let it slide though.
If you had to choose what car would you purchase from the list below
CT4
Audi A3
BMW 2 series
Thanks 🙏🏿
My wife likes the XT4 I'm partial to the CT4 (base RWD model) the test drive will tell the tale.
Great video beautiful car, even more beautiful background. I wish I was camping in fort desoto right now.
That is so cool Philip! Thanks for letting me share it with you!
I absolutely love it as is...so great that the Seville has Evoluted to a GRAND
I still miss the rich engine tones of the V6 in my 17 year old Acura TL; 4 cylinders have a sound that I find less pleasing. But I suppose if one never had a V6 it wouldn't be much of an issue.
Gorgeous car. Great video. One of these may replace my XTS VSport one day. This car is a home run.
Love the review Joe!
Thanks Rich! You are awesome!
How are you Joe? If this vehicle didn't have any power supply in the back, I would have Zonked it hard, especially if it is in a Cadillac for $45,000. Acuras and Hondas really need to start adding some for their sedans.
You are so very right! 💯
@@RaitisRides ;D
@@stellantistom6881 you are awesome!
@@RaitisRides ;D
Love to see the rear is simple n small tailights not big ass taillights on the trunk lid
I just bought my 2022 ct4 2.0 turbo awd and i do have all digital dash
Which will you take joe Cadillac Ct4 or Honda Accord sport 2.0
$45k is not too bad for this Caddy. I’d have to get a different color for both the exterior and interior. Great review 👍 Thanks Joe!
Thanks for another great review Joe!
Your "undisclosed location" looks warm and tropical hahah. Frost here in the mornings in Ontario Canada, I'm jealous 🤙
Very unique way to car rating, I like the detail about the exterior styling, great points! I’m in Canada so I’m going to research an AWD model, I’m looking for a sports sedan in early 2021 so I will add this to the mix. I will watch again, great work.......jokes are corny BUT who doesn’t like corn?!? ;-) lol
your reviews are AWESOME! gonna get this for my lady.
how does a car with 370ftlb torque and over 300hp does 0-60 in mid 5's? A3 with messily 260 does the same.
Good review!
Not crazy bout the back end i think the ct5 back side looks a lil better
I got a cla250. The CT4 will be my next car.
Nice man!
Rear wheel drive RWD
#BURNOUTS #SMOKE
I want to see you do the updated 2021 Audi Q5. I know they are at Tampa dealers now! :-)
Would love Joe to review an Allante next, because its like him: Italian and American!
Are those power and torque figures with premium or regular fuel?
I used to own an ATS it was awesome but idk the front of this kinda looks like a Chrysler 300
Ya they do look good
I am so glad that I can bring this one to you!
Good review. Thanks
I SWEAR Joe reads my mind! I literally said I want to see a review on the CT4 and LOOK At GOD! Your reviews are always the best! the #ZonkKing
I'm really liking this too. Enjoyed😎
Have you done any Jaguar models or Lexus IS models
Isn't compact executive cars equivalent of midsize cars? I think it is bigger than compact cars and it size is similar to non luxury midsize cars.
Nope it's still considered compact
this is the replacement for the ATS?
Yes
I'm really liking these new Caddys ...
Nice car, though the interior is bit black and plasticky. Price is not the highest either, so i guess its okay. Black bezels around inforntainenment and old school gages look dated for a brand new car. Cadillac is always close to a great car, like last gen when they ruined it with Cue system. For example the 100+ k new escalade has black switched from a 50k cadillac.
Did it have a sunroof?
Joe, still waiting for you to drive the CT5-V!
I was thinking between this and the mustang mach 1 and honestly this cars kind of a let down, nothing bad but nothing really impressive. The instrument cluster seems outdated
great presentation of a handsome sedan with RWD.
Navy Blue would perfect match for this vehicle
You are so very right!
Really digging this CT4 👍🏿
Wow a luxury version of a Cruz !!!!
I’m trying figure out if I want a sport car (dodge charger,Ford mustang,Subaru BRZ,or Hyundai Genesis coupe) or a luxury type of car (Cadillac,Mercedes Benz )
I’m 18 going for 19 In may
Those are the vehicles that caught my attention and I don’t know :/
You're young go for the sports car then switch to luxury later on
I have one they Ight but but it has a couple problems at 10k miles and has a couple recalls
What's the problem at 10k? I was gonna get me one
My top pick in the segment
Thanks my friend!
2020 cars should have full digital dash. Let's start this new decade off right!
Why should they?
@@lifesAtrip513 because its common tech now. If a Ford Mustang has it, a Cadillac should definitely have it seeing that Cadillac is a luxury brand and luxury cars are usually at the high end of the tech developments.
@@XBLHAX my 2022 has it
