  • 2014 Cadillac ELR test car in New York's Hudson Valley, March 2014

    The Cadillac ELR extended-range electric car has received its first recall. The software for the car’s electronic stability control (ESC) system may inhibit certain ESC diagnostics, which in turn may cause the system to fail in alerting the driver when the ESC is either partially or fully disabled.

Clearly if a driver was uninformed that his or her...

    Cadillac Goes The Informative Route For New ELR Ad: Video

    Cadillac's last advert for its ELR range-extended electric coupe was... polarizing, to put it mildly. Called "Poolside", its lead character is either loved or hated depending on what kind of American you see yourself as. Actor Neil McDonough portrayed a man who'd probably sell his own mother if it...

    Cadillac has had a tough time competing in Europe, with the poor image of its Saab-based BLS probably still lingering in the minds of Europe’s luxury car buyers. Cadillac made a half-hearted return to the European market in 2010 by offering a handful of select models, but now it’s full steam ahead, with the American luxury brand promising a full lineup of models, new dealerships and a dedicated team of marketing staff. Starting this year, Cadillac will offer its ATS, ATS Coupe, CTS, SRX and Escalade models, and there are plans in place to expand this further going forward. One...

    Why do we watch car commercials? For this? For attitude? Other enthusiast hobbies, they do their thing, they meet at the cafe, they take the weekend off--OFF. Why aren't you like that? Why aren't we like that? While there's a lot to be said for the rhetorical construction of the speech delivered in...

    Friends, brace yourselves. The awesome level just went to 12. This 1977 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz would be a rather impressive car of the Land Yacht era in its own right, but thanks to extensive (and apparently very well done) modifications, it has become a true masterpiece.

    Cadillac's plans for a new, range-topping, rear-drive flagship sedan are no secret; the questions lie in the details. What will it be named? When will it arrive? And what will it look like? The last question, at least, we can give a partial answer to: it will look like this. Or, at the least, it...

  • 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe  -  2014 Detroit Auto Show live photos

    Cadillac introduced a new ATS Coupe at the Detroit Auto Show this week, but missing from the automaker’s stand was a high-performance ‘V’ version. We know Cadillac still plans to launch an ATS-V, initially as a sedan and then as a coupe, and the choice of powerplant for these cars is a twin-turbocharged V-6. Now we have an idea of how much power to expect. Motor Trend is reporting that the upcoming ATS-V models will feature a 425-horsepower version of the twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter V-6 found in the CTS Vsport and XTS Vsport models. That matches the output of BMW’s new...
