2020 CT6-V Interior
The interiors of large luxury sedans set the benchmark for the rest of a manufacturer's lineup and are a representation of what a brand can accomplish when the price isn't a major factor. It comes as a disappointment then when you realize just how far behind the Cadillac CT6-V's interior is when you compare it with the spectacular spaces on offer in the BMW 7 Series, and especially the Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The dashboard design of the CT6-V mimics the angular exterior by incorporating lots of angular effects. The end result is a rather uninspiring space that doesn't feel that much different from Cadillac cars lower down in the range. The materials on offer are of premium quality, but the overall fit and finish are not up to the class standard. What one does get is a sense of sportiness that is lacking in the non-performance orientated BMW 750i xDrive and Mercedes-Benz S560.

Seating and Interior Space
Those sitting in the front are embraced by a set of sporty bucket seats that strike a good balance between long-distance comfort, sporty bolstering. In terms of interior space, the Cadillac CT6-V is on the lighter side when compared to its German rivals, but it feels far from being cramped once inside. There's more than enough space to seat five tall adult passengers in comfort, never mind smaller beings. Interior measurements read as follows: headroom in the front is 40.2 inches and 38 inches in the back, legroom is a generous 46.4 inches, and 40.4 inches in the rear. Front and rear shoulder room is 58.3 inches/56.2 inches respectively, and hip room is 55.9 inches and 53.5 inches front to rear.

Interior Colors and Materials
Cadillac decided to keep things simple when it came to the color and material choices on the CT6-V. When you take a gander at the interior material choices on offer in the Mercedes-Benz, for instance, you'll be left dumbstruck at the sheer number of choices on offer. It is for reasons such as this that the Mercedes-Benz S-Class is seen as a superior product. The 2020 Cadillac CT6-V is offered with black leather seats, black door lining, a black headliner, and carbon fiber trim inserts. You could opt for Dark Auburn leather with Jet Black accents, however. You also get a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. Optional premium carpeting can be added at an additional cost.
2020 CT6-V Trunk and Cargo Space
When it comes to large luxury sedans, the focus is usually placed on interior space and passenger comfort; after all, if there was a need for trunk space, a luxury SUV would be better suited. With this in mind, we can move on to the trunk and cargo space on offer in the 2020 Cadillac CT6-V. Pop open the trunk, and you'll be greeted by 15.8 cubic feet of trunk space, which is about the same as you get in a 2020 Honda Accord or Kia Optima. The trunk opening is square, and lifting things in and out of the CT6-V is a cinch. Three golf bags should fit comfortably.

2020 CT6-V Infotainment and Features
Features
To play at this level, you have to bring the goods, and the Cadillac CT6-V most certainly does. Get in the front via the keyless entry system and be seated on 16-way power-adjustable heated leather seats and heated seats in the rear. The rather basic interior design hides high tech features such as 4G LTE Wi-Fi connectivity, ambient interior lighting, a head-up display and surround vision, and the more traditional luxury features such as a dual-zone climate control system, and rear power sunshades are also present. Wireless phone charging and USB ports front to back keep things charged and ready to go, and a heated and leather-wrapped steering wheel keeps things pointed in the right direction. Active driver safety features include advanced adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, lane change alert with side blind zone alert, lane-keep with cross-traffic alert, as well as standard night vision assist.
Infotainment
One of the most important parts of owning a large luxury sedan (preferably in black) is having a sound system that's loud enough to awaken the neighborhood from a mile away. How else are you going to announce that you've made it? Cadillac is well aware of this and has not held back when it came to the infotainment system on the CT6-V. The standard 10.2-inch infotainment display sits atop the air vents and offers solid colors and minimal sun fade. The menu is controlled by a rotary knob situated below the shift knob. Standard infotainment features on the CT6-V include SiriusXM satellite radio, an SD card reader, available OnStar & Cadillac Connected Services, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto integration, as well as integrated navigation with available real-time traffic alerts. The standard sound system consists of a grand total of 34 speakers courtesy of sound experts Bose. This system sounds fantastic even to the untrained ear, and we felt that Drowned by Entombed sounded better than it ever has.
