A powerful engine, star-class cabin, and semi-autonomous driving technology are a guaranteed formula to make business and leisure travel more exciting. Merrillville drivers can find all these qualities and more in Cadillac’s luxurious sports sedan, the 2025 Cadillac CT4-V.
Breathtaking Speed
Even in its base configuration, the Cadillac CT4-V is a high-performance sports sedan with an impressive 0-to-60 mph time of 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 156 mph. It is propelled by a 2.7L turbocharged four-cylinder that generates a beastly 325 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque. A 10-speed automatic transmission delivers power to the vehicle’s rear wheels, forming a sporty RWD system. Drivers who seek extra traction and stability can choose the available AWD configuration.
The CT4-V also features a Blackwing trim that pushes the boundaries of performance. It houses a roaring 3.6L twin-turbocharged V6 under the hood, pumping out 472 hp and 445 lb-ft of torque. Putting the pedal to the metal rockets the CT4-V Blackwing from 0 to 60 mph in a lightning-fast 3.9 seconds. On the track, the sports sedan reaches a blistering top speed of 189 mph.
Exceptional Maneuverability
The CT4-V is engineered to perform just as well on winding roads as it does on the drag strip. Magnetic Ride Control reads the road every millisecond and adjusts the damping force in just five milliseconds. This provides precise body motion control, giving drivers the confidence to maneuver aggressively regardless of road conditions. The sedan also comes with an electronic limited-slip differential (eLSD) that varies torque distribution to the rear wheels, enhancing road grip while cornering.
Upscale Interior
Long road trips come without road weariness in the CT4-V’s luxurious cabin, which features ergonomically designed seats, upscale amenities, and premium materials. Performance front bucket seats with 18-way power adjustment and heating melt away the miles, and dual-zone automatic climate control enables front-row occupants to set their comfort zones. A Modena leather-wrapped steering wheel is standard, providing drivers with a comfortable grip. Other standard creature comforts include ambient interior lighting, wireless phone charging, and front and rear 12-volt power outlets.
Super Cruise
The sedan offers GM’s advanced semi-autonomous driving technology, Super Cruise. Once activated on a compatible highway, the system allows drivers to safely take their hands off the steering wheel while simply paying attention to the road ahead. Built-in cameras, sensors, GPS, and several other systems work together to monitor surrounding traffic and adjust the CT4-V’s position in the lane.

When purchasing a Cadillac, taking out a loan from your dealership comes with advantages. Exclusive discounts, low interest rates, and flexible terms are just some of the Cadillac financing benefits you can get at your Cadillac dealership.
Low-Interest Loans
One of the key advantages of taking out an auto loan through the dealership is the possibility of financing your new purchase through a Cadillac Financial loan. These manufacturer loans are tailored for Cadillac vehicles and often include exclusive benefits, such as purchase allowances, cashback, and low interest rates for specific models or on specific term lengths.
Flexible Loan Options
Financing your new vehicle through the dealership doesn’t mean borrowing from Cadillac Financial. As a leading dealership in the Merrillville area, we partner with numerous local and national credit providers, meaning we can help you find the right option to suit your needs and financial situation. Applying through us can save you a lot of time, as you only have to submit one application, and we will take care of the rest.
Online Prequalification Application
Knowing how much you can afford to borrow and what you qualify for can simplify the loan application process. At our dealership, you can get pre-approved from the comfort of your home by completing the online application form. You can also use our online calculators to determine your buying power and estimate the monthly payments based on the amount you want to borrow.
Cadillac Protection Plans
Endorsed by Cadillac and backed by General Motors, Cadillac’s premium protection plans come with the peace of mind of knowing that you won’t have to pay out-of-pocket to replace or repair parts and components that aren’t normally covered by the new vehicle warranty or your insurance.
For instance, the Cadillac Advanced Protection plan offers replacement coverage for many components that wear over time, such as brake pads, windshield wipers, and the battery. Other plans are also available, allowing you to customize coverage to suit your lifestyle.
Deals and Incentives
In addition to low interest rates and manufacturer incentives, financing your Cadillac through the dealership often gives you access to additional deals and discounts. You can also choose to trade in your existing vehicle to reduce your new Cadillac’s retail price and potentially save on sales tax.
Flexible Purchase Options
Most credit providers usually only approve an auto loan to purchase a new vehicle. At our dealership, we specialize in auto loans and can help you secure favorable terms and interest rates to purchase a new, certified pre-owned, or used Cadillac.
