Cadillac's flagship sedan showcases the brand's design and technology; both with electrification and semi-autonomy. Find us on your TV @ www.motorweek.org/about/statio...
Carlos Clivilles, I've been watching this show on PBS since the 80s myself and I can say that he's pulled up in the cars a few times, but I've never seen him do it on the road like this ever.
Seeing John do a review is like seeing Dr. Dre, Snoop, and Ice Cube rap. It brings a smile on my face. My passion was ignited because of John yelling at me early in the morning as kid. I couldn't wait to see motor week.
I like that John wears a tuxedo, and other "business man" clothes with it when he presents a test car, but when he test drives it, he has a random casual outfit like he goes for a ride to the beach
I gotta admit this Ct6 is growing on me with every review! Can't wait to see the new 4.2tt version when it hits the streets! It should be a home run?! Just a little more interior enhancements (more aesthetics/symetry) & I'll be in their dealership with cash in hand!!
What a cool high tech car! Re Chinese Cadillacs, Cadillac has a large plant in Shanghai. Currently only the only Chinese built Cadillac sold in the States is the Hybrid. The USA Cadillacs are mostly made in Michigan still, but the ones sold in China are often made in China. The Chinese love Buicks and Cadillacs, so it is a big market for GM, and the Chinese government is very hard on import companies that don’t have plants in China. Cut GM a little slack, they are just trying to sell cars and keep afloat.
Is the whole car from China or was it just the hybrid system that was made there? A lot of people hear Buick's are made in China which they are but those ones are also sold in China, The Buick's sold in America are mostly made here with a few parts made in Canada/Mexico but the whole of the car is assembled here.
Thanks, thats what i thought but everybody was getting all upset thinking Cadillac is made in china, also people tend to think everything from china is cheap poorly built junk but in reality china builds products to that low standard because their American clients ask for the cheapest method possible.
Why does all the hybrid vehicles have to be basic bland & plain looking? Thats what i like about the Tesla & BMW i8 they still looks like a sports cars unlike UGLY and boring hybrid vehicles like the toyota prius honda civic chevy volt and every other ev or plug in out there
It’s funny to look back six years ago and see what has changed. Cadillac was still trying to convince people to choose their sedans over SUVs. But instead, people kept on choosing SUVs, even though they are comparatively worse value for money, worse to drive (especially compared to a car as good as this), more expensive to maintain, and more wasteful. Unless the US Government steps in with excise taxes, the SUV will win the race.
weirdshibainu Not everywhere on the navigation maps dictated by Cadillac and they do make sure that your eyes are on the road even if both hands are off the wheel. At least, they kind of addressed Tesla’s fully autonomous system, which, as you know killed people.
Stefan Unson the only way we can have true autonomous vehicles is if we sink a trillion into a smart network infrastructure that directs and controls every vehicle...putting cameras on individual cars and calling it even semi autonomous is bullshit
You really don't get it. It is just like cruise control and is great in bumper to bumper traffic or on the highway. It releases stress....why am I even trying.
LOL, Cadillac not having a lot of CT-6s on the road is most definitely not okay with them, an aspirational car is a Ferrari, not a CT-6. For the people complaining about China, you sure don't seem to have a lot of problems with companies like Mercedes, BMW, Toyota and Honda building or assembling cars here, hmm, hypocrisy?
Rock Auto is garbage. Sent me the wrong product numerous times and expects you to send it back at your cost. Gonna start buying from other online retailers. Enough of them
You lost me at "made in China". Not just lost me, but alienated me toward GM as a whole. I won't buy a made in Mexico Ford. Ironically my Honda Civic is assembled in USA, engine made in USA, transmission made in USA.I won't be going back to the general anytime soon. I hope the latest tariffs screw up GM's plans.
Hi John, It is you that isn't that bright a fellow. The door is open, a precedence has been set, if we aren't protesting this move by GM immediately, then soon all sorts of stuff from the general will be made there. There are already too many components sourced from China. Why blindly accept more? Especially after US taxpayers bailed out GM? You John, are the moron, the guy that's too slow to see the end results of this action. The prick that's too selfish to even care about the consequences.
Chris M Like i said before you really aren't bright are you? The hybrid version of the ct6 was made with china in mind because of their high taxation on co2 and displacement. We do not have these taxes in america so why cadillac waste time and money re tooling american assembly line for something that wont sell in the states. Also without china cadillac wouldn't even have the money to develop their new cars and technologies that sell in America.
Well I won't be buying a car made in China, or made in India anytime soon. I buy Japanese cars, I've owned Toyota's and now a Honda. I've also owned lots of U.S. made cars, and even a few German made cars. None of the foreign car makes of the cars I've mentioned have received large bailouts from the U.S. government lately either. GM has no loyalty to the country that saved its ass from the brink of financial ruin. Should've let the bankruptcy court have GM. They clearly care for profits on Wall Street more than jobs in America. I wish there was still a US car company that made cars entirely in the U.S. but that no longer exists. Apparently you flame throwing hypocrites don't give a rats ass about it. I stopped buying american made cars when the quality went to crap. When you are new car shopping the have stickers in the windows showing how much content of a car is sourced from which countries. I consider this information, reliability, and safety scores, fuel economy, appearance, driving dynamics, and then buy what makes the most sense. I wasn't about to give Ford more money for a less reliable, more expensive car, made in Mexico. I picked the car with good reliability and crash test rating that was made in the U.S. and had a U.S. built engine and transmission.
I doubt you are half as bright as you think you are. What did you study in college? Political science? Liberal arts? GM has been making cars in this country without help from China for a long long time. The government that helped GM was the U.S. government. I know that GM builds cars in China quite differently than here. Importing them here and selling them as premium luxury cars sends a message that I don't agree with. Apparently you can't see that. I'm glad a few other people aren't as slow as you though.
