2. The styling follows the
Cadillac brand/tradition.
The street presence
immediately
communicates that its a
Cadillac.
Appealing

3. The sloping roofline ads
a touch of vigor to the
appearance.
Aggressive Roofline

4. A winning interior, well
finished with a good
choice of materials.
Offering several choices
to design an interior to
your preference.
World Class

5. Easy and intuitive to
grasp the primary
functions of CUE.
Agreed that the shiny
surfaces attract finger
smudges.
Cadillac provides a wipe
cloth for the display.
CUE

6. The rear seat provides
adequate leg room, with
less abundant head
room.
Ideal for children and
smaller adults.
Adequate

7. The trunk is reasonably
sized, and versatile with
the folding seat backs.
Folding Seat Backs

8. Impressive performance
and sounds from the V6.
Smooth shifting 6 speed
automatic, with rev match
on downshifts when
using the paddle shifter.
Authoritative growl from
the engine at full throttle.

9. In this segment LED’s
are a must.
The ones on the ATS are
hyper cool.
Cool LED’s

10. Wonderful sport sedan
with authoritative
performance, precise
steering, robust brakes.
A comfortable highway
cruiser that attacks
curves and on/off ramps.
The heads up display is
an interesting feature.
