A few weeks ago,
gave us our first look at its new small luxury sports sedan in the form of
. This was a bit unusual considering the company hadn’t shown us the regular one yet, and the reveal is still off in the not-too-distant future. But we were lucky enough to catch a normal 2020 Cadillac CT4 parked at a
completely and totally undisguised.
Based on what we know about other recent Cadillacs and their trim and design, this CT4 is probably a Luxury or Premium Luxury trim, since it has plenty of bright chrome and red taillights instead of dark gray ones. The differences from the CT4-V are subtle. The mesh grilles of
are swapped for a main grille studded with small Cadillac badge shapes and the lower grille has simple slats. The little air intakes by the lower sections of the running lights are smaller than the ones on the V. This car also lacks the V’s side skirts and wider canards on the edges of the front bumper. There doesn’t appear to be a rear spoiler either.
While we’ve had a good look at the exterior of the CT4, we’ll have to wait until the car’s full reveal later this year to know what’s under the skin. We do know that it will continue to use the Alpha platform shared with

and the old
and
. We suspect the base engine will be the same 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 from the CT5, which makes 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Since the CT4-V uses a turbo 4-cylinder that makes 320 horsepower and 369 horsepower, there might not be a V6 option for the regular CT4. The CT5’s twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 makes more power and torque, so that’s out, and the old ATS’s naturally aspirated V6 made 335 horsepower and 285 pound-feet of torque, which would be uncomfortably close the CT4-V’s specs. But we could see a V6 of some sort in
an even more potent V iteration of the CT4 later
