The Cadillac Society Take

The Cadillac CT5 outsold many rivals on an individual basis during the fourth quarter of 2020. We attribute the circumstance to the all-new entry beginning to establish its presence in the segment. The Q4 2020 sales results were 1,134 higher than the 4,001 units in Q3 2020, 1,426 units higher than the 2,575 deliveries in Q2 2020 and 1,001 units higher than the 3,000 sales in Q1 2020.

We expect Cadillac CT5 sales to continue growing in the coming quarters as consumer awareness of the model improves, enabling the new Caddy to obtain an even more favorable position in the segment.
