Cadillac’s CTS-V Named Car and Driver 10 Best
In its 30th year, the Car and Driver 10Best lists awards the world’s finest, chosen from a field that includes the prior year’s winners and all new or significantly upgraded models for 2012.
“As in years past, the cars on this year’s list represent the best overall vehicles on the market today,” said Eddie Alterman, editor-in-chief, Car and Driver. “Out of 68 contenders, these are the ones that consistently perform the best, are a good value and are engaging, fun-to-drive vehicles.”
The full 2012 Car and Driver 10Best list will be published in the January issue which hits newsstands today.
“Car and Driver’s 10Best list is among the top recognitions for a car to achieve,” said Cadillac Vice President of Global Marketing Don Butler. “This really is a testament to those who design and develop our products to be among the world’s best.”
The Cadillac CTS and CTS V-Series cars, built in Lansing, Mich., are available in sedan, coupe and wagon versions. Cadillac’s V-series cars feature 556- horsepower engines mated to 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions (with paddle shifters), race-inspired Brembo brakes, available Recaro seating and dual-mode Magnetic Ride Control suspension.

2012 Cadillac SRX, CTS Models Get Top Safety Ratings
The Cadillac additions bring to nine the number of General Motors 2012 models with 5-star overall vehicle scores for safety. NHTSA has announced a total of 21 five-star overall vehicle scores for safety for 2012 models.
The Cadillac models were tested under NHTSA’s revised New Car Assessment Program implemented for the 2011 model year. The overall rating is based on frontal and side crash tests in addition to rollover resistance testing. Under the new system, the four test conditions are combined mathematically into an “Overall Vehicle Score.”
Under this methodology, Cadillac’s SRX and CTS sport sedan achieved an overall vehicle score of five stars – the highest rating possible - even though some individual ratings, such as rollover, resulted in four-stars. NHTSA applies the results for the CTS sedan to the sport wagon model because of its similar body structure and safety equipment.
“Receiving five stars under the new rating system is an impressive feat – one that clearly demonstrates the strength of the SRX and CTS advanced structure, overall crashworthiness and effectiveness of the models’ state-of-the-art safety technologies,” said Gay Kent, GM executive director of Vehicle Safety.
The SRX and CTS sedan and wagon are designed to help drivers avoid crashes, while protecting occupants in the event a crash occurs. Standard safety features include:
- Driver and front passenger dual-stage frontal and seat-mounted side pelvic/thorax air bags and head curtain side air bags with rollover protection that cover front and outboard rear seating rows.
- Rollover sensors which can activate the head curtain side air bags if sensors determine an imminent rollover. In a rollover, the air bags stay inflated longer to provide increased occupant protection.
- StabiliTrak electronic stability control helps the driver maintain control by comparing the path being steered by the driver with the actual response and, when necessary, applying the brakes or adjusting the throttle or a combination of both.
- Four-channel disc brakes with ABS for sure stops and full-function traction control to make the most of available traction.
- Front safety belt pretensioners to reduce forward movement and load-limiting retractors to help manage forces during a collision
- OnStar, which features the Automatic Crash Response System that uses GPS and cellular phone technology to automatically call for help in the event of a crash that deploys the air bags.
- Active front seat head restraints on CTS sport sedan and wagon that help reduce the risk of neck injury in low-speed rear collisions
- Side blind zone alert system on CTS models use sensors to detect and warn drivers of vehicles or objects in the side path of the vehicle.
The SRX is also designed to meet European pedestrian protection standards; and the front bumper is positioned for greater compatibility with car bumpers.
Starting with 2011 models, NHTSA introduced tougher tests and more rigorous requirements for its five-star ratings that provide more information about safety feature performance and crash-avoidance technologies. Changes included a new side pole test simulating a 20-mph side-impact crash into a 10-inch-diameter pole or tree at a 75-degree angle just behind the A-pillar on the driver’s side.
The other GM 5-Star models are the Buick LaCrosse without optional rear side-impact air bags; Buick Enclave; Chevrolet Cruze, Volt, Traverse and Camaro coupe, and the GMC Acadia.
Cadillac has been a leading luxury auto brand since 1902. In recent years, Cadillac has engineered a historic renaissance led by artful engineering and advanced technology. More information on Cadillac can be found at media.cadillac.com.

GM to debut 2013 Cadillac ATS at North American International Auto Show in Detroit
General Motors Co. will debut four concept or production vehicles at the 2012 North American International Auto Show next month in Detroit.
“As Detroit’s hometown automaker, we always like to make a big splash at that show,” said GM Senior Vice President of Global Product Development Mary Barra in a release Friday. “It sets the tone for the rest of the year, and since 2012 is a huge product year for us, our brands will be well-represented in the ‘D.’ ”
Barra said one of the vehicles to make its worldwide premiere at the Cobo Hall show will be the 2013 Cadillac ATS, a compact rear-wheel drive sedan equipped with the brand’s new CUE infotainment system.
ATS marks the debut of a new rear-wheel-drive-based architecture designed for agile, quick-and-fun driving dynamics and advanced technology. The ATS goes into production next summer at the Grand River Assembly plant in Lansing.
“ATS is a crucial part of Cadillac's expansion,” Barra said. “ATS enters the biggest market segment in the global luxury car industry, both in terms of volume and importance.”
The 2012 NAIAS is open to the public from Jan. 14-22.
Last year’s show drew more than 735,000 people to see hundreds of vehicles, including more than 30 worldwide premiers.

A Closer Look At The Cadillac Urban Luxury Concept Car
Jack, thank you for your kind words
"I have a 2000 DHS I bought new from Terry Wilson it has 150000 miles and still runs like a top. My wife likes to trade ever few years, Terry Wilson has been the salesman on all of them about 6 or 7. Terry will always be my salesman he makes sure I get what I want at a reasonable price. Any mechanical problems (there have not been many) are always resolved promptly. The 2000 DHS has been maintained by Capital Cadillac since it was new."
"Being of the "Generation X" grouping, I rarely if ever considered a Cadillac as my vehicle of choice. That is until the CTS came about. Styling, performance, and a "younger appeal" made the car a viable option to BMW, Audi, Infiniti and Mercedes entry level sedans. The second generation of the CTS closed the gap even further, so when I was ready to buy my next car, Capital Cadillac worked with me through the process, leaving me with a very positive car purchasing experience."

2013 Cadillac XTS Makes An Early Debut
Poised to replace both the Cadillac DTS and STS, the 2013 Cadillac XTS is a full size luxury sedan. The latest in the Cadillac line, The XTS was said to be debuting at the LA Auto Show next week but the sole image above leaked and we did get an eyeful.
The car looks the same as it did when it was shown at the 2011 Detroit Auto show but we’re pretty sure Cadillac changed something that we won’t be privy to until it’s upcoming visual release next week. The big bodied, XTS will feature Cadillac’s CUE information cluster.
