Thinking of buying the 2016 Cadillac CTS Standard?

No 2016 Cadillac CTS Standard is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is the 2016 Cadillac CTS Standard for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA has 31 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, power train and engine. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with rear-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 29 litres, from its 9.6 L/100 km rating. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $16.80 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

Practical details

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. NHTSA's Canadian figures put it at 5.02 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Best uses

It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Rent it for a week first

Try the CTS on your commute, then decide. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Money matters

Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $168 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Narrowing it down

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
