The Cadillac CTS-V – we assume in Coupe, Saloon and Estate versions – is being prepared for launch in the UK in right hand drive. One of the good things to come out of General Motors’ financial woes of a few years ago – apart from producing smaller world cars – has been the arrival [...]
GM has revealed that their new compact Cadillac ATS will debut at the Detroit Auto Show in January and go on sale in late 2012 as a 2013 model. The idea, just a few short years ago, that Cadillac could build a car that was capable of making the Germans look over their shoulder would have [...]
The Cadillac Ciel Concept – a huge four-seater Cadillac convertible - has cruised in to the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. It’s not hard to tell the General Motors has found its Mojo again after losing it to Uncle Sam; all you need to do is take one look at the Cadillac Ciel Concept that’s turned up at Pebble Beach this weekend, [...]
Cadillac has confirmed that the Converj concept from Detroit 2009 – a Chevy Volt in posh clothes – will go in to production as the Cadillac ELR. When GM revealed the Cadillac Converj Concept at Detroit in 2009 it all looked very promising. But it came to nothing, despite rumours it was going in to [...]
President Obama is visiting Ireland and being chauffeured around in the Presidential Cadillac. Which couldn’t cope with Dublin’s speed bumps, and got beached. Americans take no chances when their leader travels abroad. After all, no other country has a leader so they couldn’t possibly know how to organise things. So the President of the United States travels the world [...]
Cadillac are taking a very convincing City Car Concept to the Los Angeles Motor Show – the Cadillac Urban Luxury Concept. We’re still finding it quite hard to get our heads round the fact that Cadillac are making appealing cars. Not just cars that appeal when we go to the former colonies and want something [...]
Cadillac has revealed that the Cadillac CTS-V Wagon will cost $62,990 in the US, and probably around £65k when it gets to the UK. We don’t rave over too much metal from the States. Especially not big saloons and station wagons. But we’ve made an exception for the M5 challenging Cadillac CTS-V. And for its [...]
Cadillac have put together a walk-through video of their latest CTS-V – the Cadillac CTS-V Sport Wagon. That’s CTS-V Estate to us.

Cadillac is working hard to erase all association with its parent GM from its marketing to prevent the stigma of GM’s bankruptcy affecting sales. GM needed bailing out to the tune of £30 billion by the US Government. It had a stack of products and brands that simply didn’t work in today’s world, and the [...]
The Cadillac CTS-V Estate (Wagon) has been spied, but with Cadillac still without a network in place in Europe will we be seeing it here any time soon? It’s very sad that with a range of cars in its arsenal which could – probably for the first time ever – be taken seriously by European [...]
Cadillac are returning to the UK and Europe this year and will display the CTS and SRX at the Geneva Motor Show. But there will be no diesel engines on offer. A big mistake? Last month we reported that Cadillac were about to make a return to Europe after effectively losing their UK and European [...]
GM has released a promotion video for the 556bhp Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, featuring lots of explosions and fire and the CTS-V Coupe drifting and driving. Much of the Detroit Motor Show has been low key. The headline stuff has been mainly about ‘Eco’ cars and although there has been a bit of domestic ‘Muscle’ it’s [...]
Cadillac has released pictures of the Cadillac CTS-V Coupe ahead of the launch at the Detroit Motor Show next week. We all know about Cadillac’s fire breathing saloon car – the Cadillac CTS-V.

GM has revealed that they are to build a Cadillac CTS-V Coupe, which will debut at the Detroit Motor Show in 2010. There’s been a fair bit of news on Cadillac’s performance halo car the CTS-V of late. We had Bob Lutz taking on all comers at the Monticello Race Track in New York for [...]
Bob Lutz – the ‘Mouth from GM’ – has said in an interview that there will be an estate version of the mighty CTS-V – the Cadillac CTS-V Wagon. Bob Lutz does have a big mouth. He is prone to making statements which aren’t really backed by a lot of fact. But he’s also far [...]
Cadillac are going to put in to production the Converj – a Chevvy Volt based hybrid – although not until 2012. The Cadillac Converj (daft name) was shown as a concept at the Detroit Motor Show earlier this year and signalled a new direction for Cadillac – it was decent looking and smaller than an [...]
Jaguar has pulled out of the CTS-V Challenge in New York, citing concerns over brake fade. Bob Lutz smiles. Jaguar hasn’t really put a foot wrong on the PR front for quite a while. The XJ launch – although we took the Michael – was a very cleverly run campaign, and Jaguar are always responsive [...]
Back in April we exclusively reported that the Spyker D12 Peking to Paris – the long-anticipated SSUV from Spyker – was in fact going to be the Spyker D8. Instead of featuring a V12 as was originally planned, Spyker had decided that they were actually going to fit a Supercharged V8 with something over 550bhp. [...]
There are endless ‘Records’ set around the Nurburgring. Every class and category of car aims to take a record in its own category.
