As there are no trim options that are available in the 2016 Cadillac CTS-V, its single most configuration itself is available at a premium price of $84,000. But, for those who don't purchase stock, there are three different packages to opt for, namely Luxury, Carbon fiber, and the Safety package. We would recommend embracing the safety package, as it boosts assurance tremendously.

The 2016 Cadillac CTS-V is available with a singular powertrain. The 6.2-liter V8 engine generates a massive 640 hp along with 630 lb-ft of torque.

The engine is mated with an 8-speed automatic transmission and delivers all the power to the rear wheels as standard. A combined effort of this assembly accelerates the vehicle from 0-60 mph in 8.7 seconds, while the quarter-mile is covered in 16.8 seconds. 

Cadillac may not be the quickest in this comparison, but it steals the show with a mammoth top speed of 200 mph. Also unmatched by its rivals is the CTS-V's power figures which are tailed by the BMW M5 at 560 hp. Meanwhile, the Lexus sits at the bottom of the table with its 5-liter V8 engine that generates 467 hp, which also makes it the slowest in comparison with 0-60 mph in 9.3 seconds. The BMW M5, on the other hand, is brisk enough to cover the same in just 7.4 seconds. 

The massive 6.2-liter V8 is much of a curse when it comes to fuel economy. The Cadillac CTS-V provides 14 mpg in the city which improves to 21 mpg on the highway. Thus, we get a combined mileage of 17 mpg from the CTS-V. Besides, the CTS-V is equipped with a 19-gallon fuel tank which provides a maximum range of 399 miles. 

The Lexus GS F is the most efficient in this comparison with a combined mileage of 19 mpg, while the BMW M5 is the least efficient at 16 mpg. But the M5 has the largest fuel tank capacity of 21.1 gallons which enables it to travel 422 miles on a trot. Meanwhile, high mileage and smaller fuel tank limits the maximum range for the Lexus to 417 miles. 

The interior treatment of the 2016 Cadillac is one of the best in this segment. The cabin is adorned with high-quality materials along with a considerable amount of spacing for all the passengers.

The leather upholstery provides enough bolstering and thus great comfort at the front and rear. The rear is slightly short on headroom as compared to its rivals. A bigger engine has eaten-up the practicality aspect of this sedan. In simple words, CTS-V provides a maximum cargo capacity of 13.7 cu.-ft. which is not much, but decent in this segment.

All the vehicles in comparison can carry up to 5 passengers inside their cabin. The BMW M5 provides the best online class spacing at both front and rear. The Lexus lacks in terms of headroom in the front but has better spacing at the rear as compared to the Cadillac. Both the BMW M5 and Cadillac CTS-V have a cargo capacity of 14 cu.-ft. behind the rear seats, which is decent in this segment.
