How this compares
At 25 MPG combined, the 2022 Cadillac CT4 ranks 10th of 11 compact cars EPA rated for 2022 — 10 MPG short of the 35 MPG median for that group.
That places it among the thirstiest vehicles in its class. If annual mileage is high, the running-cost gap against a class-average rival compounds quickly.
EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $3,050, $1,300 more than the $1,750 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $15,250, a $6,500 difference against a class-median vehicle.
Tailpipe CO₂ is 356 grams per mile — about 5.3 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.
