The revised direct-injection 3.6-liter V-6 now puts out 318 hp and 275 lb-ft of torque, thanks mostly to intake changes, which include larger valves, revised ports, and a reworked camshaft that keeps the intake valves open longer. Compared to last year's 3.6-liter V-6, this year's is nearly 21 pounds lighter; 13 pounds of which were saved by integrating the heads and exhaust manifolds, 2 pounds from a lighter-weight front accessory-drive cover and new connecting rods, and 5.5 came out from using a plastic intake manifold in place of last year's aluminum piece.

The 2012 CTS's standard-feature list sees Bluetooth added to all models and a blind-spot monitoring system to the coupe. A new Touring package is available with either engine and with any body style, and adds a dark-finish grille, metal pedal covers, dark wood trim, and V-style suede stuff covering the steering wheel, shift knob, and seat inserts. Polished 19-inch wheels and Recaro seats come with 3.6-liter Touring models, while 3.0-liter examples get pearl-nickel-finished 18s and the regular seats, albeit now sueded. Sedan and wagon buyers who spec the pack get an extra-special bonus: chrome exterior door handles.

While there were no major updates to the lines of the car - buyers will find new finishes to the grille and a Cadillac logo with more distinct colors.
