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 Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
The Cadillac CT5 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Cadillac CT5 as you will with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, 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). Whether you pick the Cadillac CT5 or the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, it's going to cost you about the same.
Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Cadillac CT5 and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class have similar Destination Charges.
Dimensions
Since the Cadillac CT5 is much wider than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, 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 Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Drivetrain
With its lower torque, the Cadillac CT5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
Handling
The Cadillac CT5 has a larger turning radius than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
The Cadillac CT5 has less horsepower than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, so it will probably be somewhat slower.
Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Cadillac CT5 and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
The Cadillac CT5 has less cargo capacity than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
Warranty
The Cadillac CT5 comes with essentially the same basic warranty as the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
