The overview
In our testing, we found the 2014 CTS delivers an inviting blend of comfort, quietness, and a sporty driving performance. The world-class cabin offers excellent fit and finish, acres of padding, and sumptuous genuine leather. The front seats are very comfortable, but the flush-mounted, touch-activated switches are an aggravation. The best blend of features and price is the Luxury Collection trim package with real leather, a folding rear seat, HID headlights, forward-collision warning, blind spot monitoring, and heated/ventilated front seats. The high-end V-Sport is a treat to drive, with effortless thrust. Changes for 2015 included a standard built-in WiFi hotspot. Updates for 2016 included a new eight-speed automatic transmission, a 335-hp 3.6-liter V6, 360-degree camera, and the addition of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to the infotainment system. 2019 was the final year for the CTS.

Behind the data
Latest source update: September 11, 2026
Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.
Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
