Cadillac Drops Hot CT5-V Blackwing Lease For May
The 2026 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is showing an estimated lease of $2,680 per month, and before you flinch at that number, consider what it buys you: 668 supercharged horsepower, nearly $24,000 in carbon fiber and technology upgrades, and one of the last true American super sedans still rolling off a production line. This particular car is priced at MSRP in a market where the average Blackwing is selling above sticker, which makes the lease math more favorable than you might expect. The estimate is based on current programs running through early June. Here's the breakdown.
The 2026 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Lease Deal
This is an estimated lease, not an official Cadillac national program, so actual terms will vary by location and credit profile. The vehicle is a 2026 CT5-V Blackwing with the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and 10-speed automatic, sending 668 horsepower to the rear wheels. MSRP is $135,945, which includes $23,850 in installed upgrades and the destination charge.

The vehicle is a 2026 CT5-V Blackwing with the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and 10-speed automatic, sending 668 horsepower to the rear wheels. MSRP is $135,945, which includes $23,850 in installed upgrades and the destination charge. One detail worth noting: the average transaction price for CT5-V Blackwings is currently running above MSRP at roughly $138,095. This car is listed at sticker price, which means the capitalized cost used to power this lease estimate isn't inflated by a dealer markup.
What You're Getting
This is not a lightly optioned Blackwing. The $23,850 in upgrades includes the Carbon Fiber 1 and Carbon Fiber 2 Packages, a carbon fiber front splitter, carbon fiber rocker moldings with extensions, and the Super Cruise 1 Package with Cadillac's hands-free highway driving system. The UltraView dual pane sunroof, red brake calipers, Torch Red seat belts, and 19-inch forged aluminum wheels with a satin graphite dark finish round out the build. The interior is finished in Sky Cool Gray leather with Jet Black accents.
The supercharged 6.2-liter V8 is the same LT4 unit that has defined the Blackwing since its introduction, delivering 668 horsepower and 659 lb-ft of torque. This particular car runs the 10-speed automatic rather than the available six-speed manual, which is the more common configuration for lease builds. Cadillac backs it with a 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty and a 6-year/70,000-mile drivetrain warranty.
The Bottom Line
This lease is for the buyer who knows exactly what the Blackwing is and has decided that ownership, even temporary ownership, is worth the monthly outlay. At $2,680 a month it is not a value play by any conventional metric, but for a 668 hp super sedan loaded with carbon fiber and Super Cruise, priced at sticker in a market that routinely charges above it, the math is more reasonable than the headline number suggests. The vehicle may still be in transit from the factory, so confirm availability with the dealer. If you've been waiting for a well-specified Blackwing at MSRP, this one checks the boxes.
