The 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe is the latest addition to the lineup of Cadillac’s best-selling cars. The 2-door coupe joins 4-door sedan and wagon body styles, which see no major changes for 2011. The coupe seats 4 while other versions seat 5. The sedan and wagon reprise 3.0 and 3.6 trim levels. Depending on body style and drivetrain, trim levels include Base, Luxury, and Performance. The coupe comes as the 3.6. The 3.0 uses a 270-horsepower 3.0-liter V6 engine. The 3.6 has a 304-horsepower 3.6-liter V6. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on 3.0 sedans. It’s offered as a credit option on 3.6 coupes and sedans.
The 2011 Cadillac DTS is largely unchanged for what likely will be its final model year. This premium-large car has front-wheel drive and comes in Base, Luxury, Premium, and Platinum trims. All have a 4.6-liter V8 engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission.
Base, Luxury, and Premium models have 275 horsepower. Platinum versions have 292 horsepower. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, front-side airbags, and curtain-side airbags. Also offered are blind-spot-alert and lane-departure-warning systems.
Leather upholstery is standard on all DTS models. Heated and cooled front seats are optional on the Base, standard otherwise. Heated rear seats and a heated steering wheel are standard on all but the Base. Platinum models have a sport suspension and specific trim. A navigation system with real-time traffic information is standard on the Premium and Platinum.
A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard on all wagons, coupes, and 3.6 sedans while remaining optional on the 3.0 sedan. Rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive is available on all body styles. The high-performance CTS-V sedan and coupe are powered by a 556-horsepower supercharged 6.2-liter V8. It teams with a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. A CTS-V wagon is due in calendar 2010.
The CTS-V has GM’s Magnetic Ride Control suspension, which automatically adjusts firmness within two driver-selectable modes. “Performance Traction Management” is available on CTS-V. This system is similar to GM’s Stabilitrak antiskid system, but it is set to aid performance in spirited driving. The V has an upgraded interior that includes available Recaro-brand seats with 14-way adjustment and a suede-like microfiber wrap for the shift lever and steering wheel. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain-side airbags, and front-side airbags. Available features include steering-linked headlamps and keyless entry and ignition. A navigation system is standard on the CTS-V, optional otherwise. Coupe ratings are based on preview test drives
