Interior

Inside, the dash has genuine wood and metal trim with similar stitching as in the CTS. Cadillac's CUE system is front and center. First seen in the XTS sedan, CUE has an 8-inch touch-screen, smartphone multimedia integration and touch-sensitive buttons that motor out of the way for a storage cubby. Between the gauges, a 5.7-inch display can be adjusted to show various menus, too.

Faux leather seats are standard, with genuine leather optional. Available sport seats have power-adjustable bolsters to modify the degree of hip hugging. A navigation system and surround-sound Bose stereo are optional.
