This is EXACTLY the review I was looking for! I was torn between the CT6 and the XTS, but this helped me decide. I drive a 2015 Chevy Impala LTZ right now that I absolutely LOVE, and I didn't want to veer too far from it. It's the Platinum XTS for me! Thanks SO MUCH! I'm headed back to the dealership tomorrow for that 2018 Platinum XTS! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

"the ct6 in normal touring mode rides tighter than the xts in sport mode" this is EXACTLY the info i was looking for. Thank you for making this excellent video

This is a great video.
I wish I saw this video a few months ago. However, I'm still happy with my selection. I purchased the XTS a few months ago. You're so tight about the smooth ride. Road trips have never been better.

I just bought the XTS and I must say your review was thorough as hell. Well done sir...

[LeightonRC]

Thank you for this awesome comparison video, just got an XTS, no doubt they are both great cars.

Great review! I own a 2019 XTS and I love my car. I've driven a CT6 and the performance and handling of the CT6 is impressive but as a 50 year old man, I love the smooth and comfortable ride of the XTS.

Outstanding video! I agree that the XTS has a much smoother ride but what sold me on the CT6 was all the technology it has and the larger overall size. The greatest deciding factor was the availability of those massage seats on the CT6 Platinum, my wife absolutely loves them! The Bose 34 speaker sound system in the Platinum combined with the rear entertainment system also helped in my decision as did the night vision feature, I live in deer country and those animals are very hard to spot at night with just my headlights. The XTS is an outstanding car, but so is the CT6 so I'm convinced you can't go wrong with either one!

That's good stuff. Thanks for the time and effort. I'm currently in the market and considering the two, I'm currently leaning towards the XTS.

I have driven the 2014 XTS4 3.6l and was very impressed of how smooth and comfortable the ride is, and when the CT6 came out i thought it was better looking at the front but the XTS looked better with those tail lights, it gives it a more "Caddy" look.
Now when I saw the 2018 XTS with a similar front fascia as the CT6 and a gorgeous rear taillights I was sold!

This video Also helps a lot with my decision, thank you

My next car will be the 2018 XTS

Great video! I've got a 2014 Xts Vsport, which is perfect. I know the difference between the cars, but in nice to see them laid out in a video. The CT6 costs more, but I like my XTS much better, which is cool.

Wow I was debating... and you provided an awesome review I’m sure the engineers for Cadillac couldn’t provide me. Awesome attention to details!! 💯

I drove 2019 XTS on my recent US trip. I did 3k miles in that car and it's absolutely fantastic to drive. The ride and luxury, I loved it. Daily basis I drive ATS 2.0T and this car is awesome too. Bud ATS it's a madman compared to XTS but I love it sporty handling. I wish to keep my ATS and have XTS for long cruising. I hope to get a CT6 for few days and wander which one would fit better to me, XTS or CT6. I think Caddilac should keep XTS in production if that's ride like a boat. There is still plenty peoples that prefer floaty ride rather then sporty. I really need to drive a CT6 now :)

Thanks for the positive feedback.   I have been totally impressed with both cars.   The CT6 is newer and might seem to be better.  But I see that Cadillac just updated the front suspension of the XTS.  Oh yes!   I think this might increase stability of the already-excellent XTS.   I am trying to get my hands on a 2017 XTS.

This is a great video for Uber drivers. For drivers who do have to pick up multiple boneheads at the airports who think they can bring X amount of bags on a trip (despite what Uber policy tell them), It is the XTS. The CT6 has a trunk Too small. I've have seen a family of 4 from Arkansas show up with a LOT of bags who were not smart enough to try to call an Uber X (Suburban) for their needs.

I just purchased a pre-owned 2017 XTS Premium Luxury a few days ago, and I am extremely happy with her. And you are absolutely correct, her ride is SMOOTH!!! Thank you!!!!

[stephenlevan]

Great video! I'm in the process of shopping right now! I looked high and low for a decent XTS Vsport but finally decided to spend more on a CT6 sport.

[ronchivers]

Just bought our second XTS. Love the car and the ride.

[ThomasPetter]

I can buy a used XTS for $10, 000 less than a used CT6 with the same trim and mileage.... Also, as a pontoon captain, I will always choose the smooth ride! Thanks for the awesome comparison!

[IsaacJGonzalez]

Thank you so much for taking the time to measure the cargo area! Huge help!!

Own a XTS. Love this car. Beauty. Comments on it every where I go. It does not ride as smooth as I’d like for a Cadi. Hubby says it’s the low profile tires ? Any comments? Mine is the platinum edition
