While the vast majority of 2017 Cadillac XT5 owners will never attempt to tow or haul anything, this midsized luxury SUV makes good on the “utility” aspect of the name – comfortably pulling a lightly loaded horse trailer and hauling 800lbs of grain surprisingly well.

With the recent news of Cadillac’s plans to axe the ATS, CTS and XTS for a different lineup after 2019 we once again face the question of why did Cadillac have poor sales on its sedans. This seems to be a repeating trend in Cadillac’s history, while the German Big 3 seem to continue their dominance through the decades.

The popular Cadillac CTS and the not-so-popular ATS and XTS will all be replaced by two new models – the new Cadillac CT5 and an unnamed small sedan – when the life cycle of those current models ends in the next two years as GM’s premium luxury brand looks to cut down on the number of sedans in their portfolio.

General Motors introduced the 2018 Cadillac XTS this morning and with 2 distinct exterior changes, the new XTS gets a whole lot prettier for the new model year with styling cues from the range-topping CT6.

Racing is about to get underway in the 2017 Pirelli World Challenge Season. Cadillac is revved up for the race season with the ATS-V.R about to hit the track.

I recently used a 2016 Cadillac Escalade Platinum in place of my half ton pickup to get my wife and her horses to a horse show, and after three days of being worked like a farm truck including pulling the trailer to and from the show – the Escalade proved to be every bit as capable as a pickup.

Some owners of the 2017 CTS say that when they get in their brand new car some of their CUE vehicle options are missing. When they call Cadillac customer service, they are upset with their response.

I recently had a chance to spend a week driving the 2016 Cadillac CT6 and while I will soon have a full review of this impressive new luxury sedan, one piece of the unique luxury technology that really stood out to me was the new camera-based rear view mirror – as this is technology that everyone can use and appreciate.

Cadillac wants to eliminate about half of its U.S. dealerships.

One of my favorite moments in the history of cars is the muscle car wars in the mid 60's and early 70's. Detroit's assembly lines were pumping out high horsepower cars that were marketed towards the youth of America (Baby Boomers). The race was on to see who could be the fastest.

General Motors has announced that those folks who buy a brand new Cadillac CTS-V or ATS-V will get a free two-day course at Spring Mountain Motor Resort in Las Vegas, where they will learn from skilled racing instructors how to best handle their high performance luxury cars – and it is free (for the most part)!

In a lengthy comment posted on what is a now-debunked article about the future of Cadillac, the brand’s boss Johan de Nysschen stated that there is a non-sedan flagship coming and as I have speculated in the past – I believe that we could be getting a Corvette-bases supercar.

General Motors has a high tech rear view camera mirror system for the Cadillac CT6 and the Chevy Bolt, and according to the folks at Autoblog, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has approved this system – opening up a whole new area of interior technology that is sure to quickly spread across the industry.

The folks at Automotive News announced yesterday that the extended range Cadillac ELR – essentially the luxury coupe version of the Chevrolet Volt – will not continue on into a next generation and with the ELR being one of my favorite vehicles on the market today – I am sad to hear that the beautiful electric Caddy coupe is headed for the automotive graveyard.

A video has surfaced showing a Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat racing against a new 2016 Cadillac CTS-V and in almost every match, the supercharged Mopar beat the supercharged Caddy – often doing so in impressive fashion.
