We drove Cadillac's most high-tech car across Europe - here's what it was like
Benjamin Zhang/Business Insider
A couple of months ago, a couple of friends and I decided to take a European vacation. One leg of our journey took us from Amsterdam in the Netherlands through Belgium before winding up in the Paris.
But what's the best way to see Europe?
Some may say it's best done by train. Air travel is pretty affordable these days. Also, those Viking River Cruises sound like an absolute blast. But for me, there's nothing better than blasting my way through the continent behind the wheel of a high-powered automobile. Admittedly, as an automotive journalist and a car fanatic, I may be biased here.
This leads to the next big decision. What should be our road trip car? With the need to carry four full-sized Americans and their luggage, many of the usual suspects like Volkswagen GTI, BMW M3, and Porsche 911 are off the table.
The Audi RS6 Avant, Volvo V60 Polestar, and even the Range Rover Sport were just some of the enticing options we considered. But in the end, we went with a less obvious choice, the Cadillac CT6.
The CT6 debuted in 2016 as Cadillac's new flagship sedan. The aluminum-intensive Caddy represents the brand's new vision for luxury that blends style and sophistication with technology and driving pleasure.
As a result, its one of Business Insider's favorites, nearly taking home our 2016 Car of the Year Award. (In case you're wondering, the Acura/Honda NSX hybrid supercar won.)
However, we were curious to see how a big Cadillac would hold up on the streets of Europe. Here's a closer look at our European road trip.
