2013 Cadillac ATS

Information Specification Image Review 2013 Cadillac ATS
It's the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, and Cadillac officially kicked things off tonight by unveiling its 2013 ATS sedan at Detroit's College for Creative Studies. Why CCS? Many of the college's graduates go on to work in areas of automotive design, and as Ed Welburn, General Motors' Vice President of Global Design, told us, over 170 CCS graduates currently work within the larger GM design team, 20 of which directly worked on the ATS project. After getting our first impressions of the ATS in the flesh, we must indeed applaud those designers.

The ATS rides on an all-new rear-wheel-drive platform, and the end result is car that's about eight inches shorter in length than the larger CTS sedan. Cadillac's Art & Science design language has been updated for the smaller sedan, with angular lines and flat surfaces found throughout the four-door's styling. Sure, Cadillac is quite proud of the way the ATS looks, but what's most important about this car is its performance. After all, the ATS will go head-to-head with the likes of the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4, so on the road, it has to be good.
The new ATS sports Cadillac's latest Arts & Science styling with sharp creases and flowing lines. The headlights are jewel-like, while the taillight feature light pipes that complement the integrated LED rear spoiler. Dual chrome exhaust tips peek out from below the bumper, with the center-mounted backup light mounted between them.

Inside, Cadillac will offer real wood, aluminum, or carbon-fiber trim that will complement leather seats and a soft-touch dashboard. The available CUE infotainment system features a capacitive touch-sensitive center stack with an 8-inch touch screen up top. All the touch-sensitive buttons feature haptic feedback, so you know when you've touched a button, and a 5.7-inch color LCD resides inside the gauge cluster.
With that out of the way, we can get back to the ATS. Like its bigger brother, the ATS will ride on a new rear-wheel-drive platform dubbed Alpha. (The current CTS uses Sigma bones.) We expect that the ATS will offer a mix of four-cylinder and V-6 engines, some turbocharged, and manual transmissions should be available across the board. All-wheel drive will be on the order sheet, too. We’re most excited, naturally, for the ATS-V, which we’ve heard should pack a twin-turbocharged V-6 thumping out around 380 hp.

Some time after the ATS arrives, we expect Cadillac to introduce an ATS-based convertible with a cloth roof (rather than a folding hardtop), different styling, and a new name. It’s meant to fit between the ATS and the larger, more-expensive CTS, much in the way the Audi A5 cabrio slots between the A4 on which it’s based and the A6.

It’s possible that the Cadillac ATS will debut as early as this August at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance—a Detroit debut in January makes some sense, too—and General Motors says that the car will go on sale in the summer of 2012.source:autoblog.com,thecarconnection.com,caranddriver.com

To make this concept car in accordance with the urban environment, its size should be minimized. But General Motors claimed four adults could still sit comfortably in it. Wheelbase car is only about 2.46 m with a total length of approximately 3.83 m. Recorded 1.72 m in width and height only 1.44 m.
 Though GM claims that the interior space of relief, a journalist who has seen just say this car is still narrow cabin can be boarded despite four adults. "The exterior may be small, but the interior of relief," said Clay Dean from GM Advanced Design North America & Cadillac Brand Champion.
Access into the cabin is provided by a pair of scissors type doors that stretched and opened to the front when opened.

With athletic handling and a bold look, the Cadillac STS defies the stereotype of a huge American sedan with boat-like handling. But despite these attributes the STS still trails the competition in interior quality. “Overall, the 2011 Cadillac STS remains a decent luxury sedan,” writes Edmunds. “But with so many superior entries in this segment, we'd still advise you to check out the competition before making a decision.”
While the interior of the 2011 Cadillac STS sees the use of some hard plastics not present in many luxury large cars, the STS fails to make up for it with a significantly lower price tag. Base models start at about $47,000, and aren’t available with comfort and convenience features that many buyers in this segment have come to expect, like heated seats, navigation or Bluetooth connectivity. Opting for the upper Luxury or Premium trim fixes this issue, but also adds more than $3,000 to the bottom line. A cramped back seat and a smaller-than-average trunk also cause the STS to lose points to more accommodating cars in the class.

Under the hood a 3.6-liter V6 delivers power through a six-speed automatic gearbox. The optional 4.6-liter Northstar V8 has been discontinued for 2011, but reviewers say it’s not much of a loss. The V8 was an expensive option, and only provided an additional 18 horsepower over the standard V6 mill. Handling and braking are where the STS continues to shine. It’s nimble in the corners, and reviewers are generally pleased to be sitting in the driver’s seat.

The car will be launched next month, will steal the attention of automotive enthusiasts.

"There are luxury SUVs and then there's the 2011 Cadillac Escalade. There are full-size SUVs and then there's the Escalade," says Edmunds. "You Could buy any number of big, luxurious vehicles instead, but there's just no true substitute for Cadillac's celebration of power, brashness and wheels in a package so large the Amish Could stick one in a river to power a grain mill. " 

 Escalade Hybrid 6.0L V8 engine brings that can achieve maximum power 332 hp and maximum torque of 498 Nm. This car takes 8.2 seconds for 0-100 km per hour speeding.

Fuel-efficient cars by 50% if used within the city priced at U.S. $ 71,685, or about Rp709 million in the U.S.. With that price is much more expensive Escalde Hybrid U.S. $ 3,600 or about Rp34 million compared with the standard Escalade.

 The 2011 Cadillac Escalade features seating for up to eight in a Roomy and luxurious cabin. Though its third-row seat is Almost universally panned by reviewers, that's typical for this class. And, while the Escalade's big V8 has no trouble moving it down the road, it does drink a lot of gas. While most buyers Escalade Should have no trouble affording the fill-ups, this Is not the car for you if You Want to go green (if You Want Caddy looks in a Slightly more earth-friendly package, check out the Cadillac Escalade Hybrid) .
Pricewise, the Escalade falls in the middle of its class. For the money, you get a strong list of standard features and performance capabilities That Reflect the Escalade's truck-based construction.
