Cadillac introduced the all-new 2014 CTS sedan, which
ascends into the heart of the midsize luxury market with expanded performance,
elevated luxury and sophisticated technology.
The third-generation CTS sedan is based on the
high-performing rear-drive architecture of the award-winning ATS sport sedan,
moving Cadillac into the prestigious class of midsize luxury sedans. It will be
the segment's lightest car, enabling the most agile driving dynamics in the
class. A range of power-dense powertrains underpin its performance, including
the all-new Cadillac Twin-Turbo engine and eight-speed automatic transmission.
"The all-new 2014 Cadillac CTS sedan delivers crafted
design, thrilling performance and sophisticated technology," said Bob
Ferguson, vice president, Global Cadillac. "The car that has always been
Cadillac's centerpiece stretches figuratively and literally to challenge the
world's best."
A longer, lower and more athletic-looking proportion is
introduced on Cadillac's landmark sedan and evolves the brand's Art &
Science design philosophy. While growing five inches (127 mm) in length,
including a 1.2-inch longer wheelbase, the roofline and cowl - the base of the
windshield - are about an inch lower, dimensions that complement the longer
exterior to accentuate the car's lean aesthetic.
"With Cadillac growing globally, driven by rising
product credibility, the new CTS elevates the brand to a new level," said
Ferguson.
While stretched in overall length and wheelbase, the all-new
CTS sedan has a lower curb weight than the preceding model and weighs about 200
pounds (90 kg) less than the BMW 528i. Lightweight features, including
Cadillac's first aluminum door structures, contribute to the lower weight and a
nearly 50/50 weight balance. And for the first time on CTS, Magnetic Ride
Control, Cadillac's real-time damping system, is available on base models.
Cadillac's shield grille and signature vertical lighting
elements - including LED front signature lighting detail - evolve on the CTS.
The grille is wider, with a more detailed texture, while the headlamps flow up
with the hood line, incorporating crystalline LED light guides for a
technologically advanced appearance with more uniform illumination.
