2023 Cadillac CT4: Here’s The New Midnight Steel Metallic Color

The 2023 Cadillac CT4 adds three new exterior colors to its palette: Argent Silver Metallic, Radiant Red Tintcoat, and Midnight Steel Metallic. Here’s our first look at the new Steel hue.

Assigned production code GXU and touch-up paint code WA-138H, Midnight Steel Metallic is one of eight exterior colors offered on the 2023 CT4, which include:

• Black Raven
• Blaze Orange Metallic
• Crystal White Tricoat
• Summit White
• Wave Metallic
• Argent Silver Metallic (new for 2023)
• Midnight Steel Metallic (new for 2023)
• Radiant Red Tintcoat (new for 2023)

The Midnight Steel Metallic color is an extra-cost item that adds an additional $625 to the sedan’s price. It is available on all three “regular” CT4 trim levels – Luxury, Premium Luxury, Sport – and can be combined with all four interior colorways:

• Cinnamon with Jet Black accents
• Jet Black with Jet Black accents
• Sangria with Jet Black accents
• Whisper Beige with Jet Black accents

The 2023 Cadillac CT4 arrives with just a handful of changes and updates over the 2022 model, including the addition of the Driver Assist Package as standard. Two new appearance packages – the CT4 Bronze Accent Package as well as the CT4 Blue Accent Package – join the lineup, while the Diamond Sky Special Edition Package is discontinued.

The CT4 is underpinned by the Alpha 2 platform and is offered with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 (production code LSY), rated at 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, and is mated to the eight-speed automatic transmission. This boosted four-cylinder is standard on the Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport trim levels.

These models are equipped with the 350T badge on the decklid. Meanwhile, the turbocharged 2.7L I4 (production code L3B), rated at 310 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque, is optional on the CT4 Premium Luxury and is mated to the luxury marque’s 10-speed automatic transmission. This model gets the 500T badge.

All aforementioned CT4 trims are offered in either rear- or all-wheel drive.

Production of the 2023 Cadillac CT4 began at the Lansing Grand River plant in Michigan on July 18^th, 2022.
