    China is the world’s largest market for automotive sales, and General Motors’ [NYSE:GM] luxury brand, Cadillac, is a well-established player in the Chinese market. Cadillac’s Chinese dealer network now includes some 150 stores, which is roughly twice as many as the brand had in early 2012. Over the next two years, Cadillac hopes to add another 100 dealers, with a goal of growing Cadillac sales in China from 30,000 units in 2012 to 100,000 units per year by 2015. Achieving this number will take more than growing its dealer network, so Cadillac will soon begin building more...

    Cadillac's XTS Sedan Looks To Bring Luxury To Livery

  • Cadillac winter tests the ELR in Michigan's Upper Peninsula - image: GM Corp

    Strip away the 2014 Cadillac ELR’s sculpted coupe body, and underneath beats a heart very similar to the one in the Chevrolet Volt sedan. You would think, then, that launching a comparable car would be a simple task, with engineers able to breeze through already-completed tests, such as cold weather driving and calibration exercises. Perhaps that would be true if the Cadillac ELR used the same tires and suspension settings as the Volt, but the ELR is meant to deliver a more engaging driving experience than its Chevrolet cousin. That requires testing and calibration of the car’s...

The five-star certification puts the 2013 Cadillac ATS in the same category as BMW’s four-door 2013 328i, which also received five stars overall.
