Cadillac will name new flagship CT6, give other models new names as well

Like BMW and Infiniti before it, Cadillac is playing the re-naming game — starting with that new upcoming large luxury sedan which it will call the CT6. This is not the Eldorado you were hoping for.

On the heels of GM’s announcement this week that Cadillac would open a new headquarters in New York City’s tony Soho neighborhood with 50 employees, the company announced Tuesday that new CT6 would kick off a complete renaming of its car line; the abbreviation “CT” would be used for car models and the number indicates the size and position of the car within Cadillac’s brand structure.
