How it scores for you10 scores
Sharp rear-drive handling peaking in the 472-hp Blackwing, sold with a back seat and trunk that are barely there for the money.
Recalled about half as often as cars of the same model years (over-the-air software recalls count half); none of its 5 recalls were serious. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $3,000 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 33% of cars we track.
10.7 cu ft of cargo space — among the smallest of the sedans we track.
Tight rear seat and a 10.7 cu ft trunk; among the least practical compact luxury sedans.
Rear-drive Alpha chassis is excellent throughout, peaking in the 472-hp manual-available Blackwing.
Sound infotainment with CarPlay and available Super Cruise later, but screens and features trail rivals.
Composed ride with available magnetic dampers, but a narrow, budget-feeling cabin for a luxury badge.
Luxury brands like Cadillac tend to lose value faster than average.
No published tow rating; all- or four-wheel drive available.
