Is the 2021 Cadillac CT5-V a BETTER sport sedan than a BMW M340i?

The NEW CT5-V has a bit of different performance twist from Cadillac. Normally this would be the top trim but it actually replaces the V Sport from the previous generation. On the outside you will find some V-series touches from the grill, wheels, brakes and rear bumper. On the inside you will be greeted to a full leather interior, sport steering wheel and 10in infotainment system. Under the hood is a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 that pumps out 360HP & is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission. Is the 2021 Cadillac CT5-V a BETTER sport sedan than a BMW M340i?

Cadillac is coming on strong. CT5-V is looking real good. 👍

I just got back from the pharmacy, and there was a bright red CT5-V that had the black chrome & black wheels, parked outside. 😮 👀 🔥

That is so true. You can literally look at your Cadillac all day long

“Don’t stick anything in there, it will hurt” ... 😂😂😂.
You’re the best Joe 👍👍.

As far as looks, I like the CT5 V, over the M340i, especially the Cadillac Grilles

"A little over 10 inches of visual pleasure" - that's what every guy wishes they could say 😂😂

Hey Joe, I loved the camera angle you used on this review and the road you chose to drive. It really gave a true feel for the car vs taking it out on the highway or busy residential roads. Well done! More test drives like this in these higher performance vehicles please.

Joe, your a great driver, seeing you dealing with all those turns like a real professional! Also great job to Lori!

Man I'm dying for those ON POWER CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwing reviews.

Driving a white, gold, or silver Cadillac (In that order) brings you the best luck in Las Vegas. Ask the old man who knows. Thanks for another great video.

If Cadillac would just put a smaller version of the escalade infotainment in here, it'd be golden.

Joe, you trying to tell us something?😳

I love all these uploads, Joe. You're killing it.

I also love Cadillac too. (Even though no-one asked). I'm more of a Mercedes-Benz/BMW person, but still, this CT5-V ain't bad.

Nice review and professional grade camera work! I just saw one of these a couple days ago. Very sharp looking car, even looks better in person. Thanks for your insightful reviews of the various cars out there!

[jordanimatedstreaming]

I'm always thankful to see new rides here first. Other car reviews put me to sleep. I'm a huge fan of the original CTS-V. Not sure how I feel about this one yet.

[scatpackbob]

Setting the standard for outstanding vehicle reviews 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Joe & keep ‘em coming.
As always, a huge tip of the 🎩 to Lori!

[doggedlydetermined]

Very glad to see this car, but not sure if I’d choose it over a c43. Either way amazing review and cool caddy!

[tripleagent]

This car looks so good in red you can't take your eyes off of it.

[robsnow]

Great review as always, I'd take this over several in it's class. And decent MPG at 18.

This and the Type S are on my short list. I know you can't comment on the Type S yet, but you can comment on the normal TLX on things like, material quality, the tech, seats etc. Here in Canada this with incentives is on par with the Type S, almost identical. But with this you get HUD, digital cluster, much better infotainment in my opinion, high quality 360 cam where the Type S isn't even getting a 360 cam, digital rear view mirror, lighted door sills, lighted door handles, automatic trunk with puddle light, double sun roof, built in dash cam, massage seats....etc. It's a very good looking car and honestly as someone that has never owned American, it really has my attention. Sadly I can't go see either car right now so I'm relying on reviews. Both dealers are 800 kms away. But I have a major spinal issue and seat comfort is #1 then my car guy needs are #2. When you do your Type S review, please compare competition like the CT5-V, even if it's in the comments.
