Cadillac Launches Curated Customization Program for 2026 CT5-V Blackwing

• Curated program debuts exclusively on the 2026 CT5-V Blackwing

• Over 160 hand-painted exterior colour options available

• Production begins mid-2026 at Warren Artisan Center

Cadillac has introduced “Curated by Cadillac,” an exclusive customization program debuting on the 2026 CT5-V Blackwing. The concierge-led service offers select clients access to extensive personalization options, including more than 160 exterior colours and millions of interior material combinations.

“Curated by Cadillac embodies our commitment to delivering an elevated level of customization,” said John Roth, vice president of Global Cadillac. “Drawing upon experience from the ultra-luxury, hand-built CELESTIQ, we are now delivering our CT5-V Blackwing customers an opportunity to create a vehicle that is as unique as their own story.”

160+ Exterior Colours and Custom Interior Options

The program expands personalization well beyond standard factory offerings through artisan-applied finishes and premium materials:

• Exterior palette: More than 160 colour options, including high-gloss and frost finishes, each hand-painted by skilled artisans
• Interior customization: Extensive selection of colours and materials available in millions of different combinations
• Concierge experience: Dedicated design specialists with backgrounds spanning fashion, entertainment, fine arts, and luxury home design work directly with clients and dealers

Each concierge brings professional design experience, from collaborating with renowned artists and brands to creating luxury interior environments. The personalized consultation process draws from techniques developed for the CELESTIQ ultra-luxury model.

668-HP Performance and Mid-2026 Production Timeline

Despite extensive customization options, the Curated CT5-V Blackwing retains the model’s established performance specifications:

• Engine: 6.2-litre supercharged V-8
• Power output: 668 horsepower and 659 pound-feet of torque
• Transmission options: Six-speed manual or 10-speed automatic
• Production location: Hand-built at the Artisan Centre in Warren, Michigan

The program will serve customers in both the United States and Canada, with production scheduled to begin in mid-2026. Canadian pricing details have not been announced.

A Curated by Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing featuring Deep Amethyst Metallic exterior paint and a Morello Red, Adrenaline Red, and Jet Black interior will be displayed at Concours Village, A Motorsports Gathering in Pebble Beach, California from August 14-15, 2025, during the Monterey Car Week.

The launch follows similar programs from German luxury manufacturers, including BMW Individual, Mercedes-Benz Designo, and Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur, which have found strong customer demand for personalized vehicles. Cadillac’s entry into this market expands the company’s bespoke manufacturing capabilities beyond the flagship CELESTIQ, bringing artisan-level customization to the high-performance V-Series lineup.
