Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Cadillac CT5 than the INFINITI Q50. The INFINITI Q50 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Cadillac CT5.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Cadillac CT5 as you will with the INFINITI Q50, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Cadillac CT5 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the INFINITI Q50.

Dimensions
Since the Cadillac CT5 is much wider than the INFINITI Q50, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Cadillac CT5, which is slightly longer than the INFINITI Q50.

Handling
The Cadillac CT5 has a larger turning radius than the INFINITI Q50, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Cadillac CT5 is significantly less powerful than the INFINITI Q50. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Cadillac CT5 does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the INFINITI Q50.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Cadillac CT5 and the INFINITI Q50.
