[anhatinum1]

ooo - new vectra

[muiscnight]

2012? ill be an old man by then and the world will end shortly after!

[CallaceAlfame]

You seriously believe in that BS?

[bigd194]

i ve been a cadillac guy for a long time... new cadillacs are SHIT... ur paying 60k + for a fucking chevy with a good looking badge on the hood.. BRING BACK THE OLD SCHOOL CADDYS,,,

[ejimmy1995]

Interesting...but if GM decides to discontinue the DTS, they will fall behind and have no competition with the Lincoln Town Car.

[MsTommyknocker]

doesit have a leather interior?

[WaiWu]

they need new designer man...the design is seriously depressing....where's all the curves?!

[marshgatelaneposse]

great look  err no

[TheArithmetic]

It has been rumored that the XTS will replace the DTS but by no means should GM make the mistake of killing off the DTS nameplate as it is the only thing left of Cadillac's longest production marque the DeVille and one of the few remaining ties to their heritage.The DeVille (DTS) should be updated to true Art + Science stature (no longer a car for pensioners) and turned into an apt competitor for the A8, 7 Series, S Class and Lexus LS. The DeVille name is American legend and deserves to live on!

u rly cant get an hd cam? and is that shirt ok in the uk?

[mondeost2202008]

I know people would call the big luxury saloon cars as hyped up versions of mid ranged cars of the same brand but Cadillac seem to have taken it too literal. It looks like a HUGE CTS!

I was expecting something like a smaller more real world looking Cadillac Sixteen with the longer bonnet and the shorter back. This one looks tall and shortened and I can't describe this thing but a big and tall CTS.

I actually like the long looks of the STS as it looked longer and same goes with the Seville.

[heartboy86]

@mondeost2202008 alot of companines do it,especially bmw and merc,their smaller cars look similar to their high end cars.

[mondeost2202008]

@heartboy86 Well like I said, I think Cadillac is overdoing it and most of today's luxury cars as well. Jaguar made the XJ look a bit like a droplet shaped XF, the BMW 5 series is pretty much a bigger 3 series with 7 series amenities and it's hard to tell between the Audi sedans.

but since it's still a concept then maybe everything seen here wouldn't really appear in the production version so there's still hope for it to look much like the Sixteen concept.

[heartboy86]

@mondeost2202008 how? like i stated most car companies do it,it's called competition and this xts looks like niether the cts nor sts.there not overdoing it,it's just how it's been for a while now...if anything they are changing it up.

[leadfoots70]

good my 06 dts will look like a new one in two more years woo hoo

[Branman1994]

COOL

[Motorfordtoyota]

Thats a really nice car!

[SuperDomthebomb]

have mommy fix ur tie guy

[bodaishinboy]

The folks at Cadillac need to realize you can't have a luxury badge and sell bargain cars. Sure make a few $50K entry level offering but the focus should be on vehicles that evoke passion and cradle you in the lap of luxury. I'm not seeing it with this vihecle. Concepts like the Cein, Sixteen and Converj all fit that bill. This is just another slap in the face to the Cadillac loyal. Why would I want this over a Mercades or BMW?

[mannimoko]

did this nigga say v16 @ 0:46

[TheSethDavis]

@mannimoko yes he did. he was referring to an earlier cadillac concept car. cadillac had a v16 1000hp 2 door car code named sixteen.

[mrowens131]

@mannimoko he was referring to the cadillac sixteen . 

[1911beauty]

the thing peoplee have to realize is, Gm is also dealing with a price issue. this offer this type of lux at the 50000 price point. people forget that. I for one think they should create a car that is out of the price point of most americans but they wont. the s class benz is 100000 and the big jag is 75000. Gm is aiming at a group of people who want more for les!

[Shift4g]

What's up with all the new American cars having to be so tall? It's nice looking, but it looks kinda like a Cadillac SHO.

[RickStylus]

wtf... that's a very ugly car;

poor technology, bad perfomance, cheap

quality lack of good design... GM is done.

[armyinhell]

can you buy that car????

[RickStylus]

@armyinhell

@armyinhell

this car is for motorshow purpose so you can't buy it.

I own a Lexus LS

[RickStylus]

I own a Lexus LS

[86bmw325i]

Finally a replacement to the grandpa car, the DTS

[xlrvlac]

The new mercedes s class suppose to bring a hybrid version too so i dont caddy will just stop at a hybrid if this is going to be flagship car it have be in different stages and more power like 745 750i 760i and s550 s600

[shred5]

This car is being offered in FWD or AWD -- while there is plenty of speculation about a LS7 or LS9 possibly as an option, it wouldn't make much sense in an AWD car now would it?

All the had to do was offer the Chinese SLS in the US, and Mercedes and BMW would be working on their next designs to catch up a little faster. The Chinese SLS is a beautiful car -- I think the XLS concept interior is a little nicer (minus the tacky Acura-esque LED speedometer) but the exterior is awesome.

[colderbeer]

Absolutely stunning car. And the interior is also gorgeous. The big tragedy is this: the 400 hp+ 6.2L V-8 will not be the motor under the hood, (a 360 hp V-6 will be the engine) and this car will be FWD first, mated to all-wheel drive. So instead of Cadillac building a big sedan to compete with the big sedans from Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes, they give us a watered down car that is still playing catch-up. This is what you get from a nation and a co. that has no fucking BALLS to compete and lead.

[shred5]

The general speculation is the 350ish hp v6 will be the base engine and a LS7 or LS9 will be an option, although I am not sure that would be a good idea with a FWD car.

Looks like they are targeting Lexus with this one...

Great interior, I think the STS and CTS have a much better interior though -- this looks like an upscale car from the outside, like a Buick, Avalon or a Lexus (which don't reek of luxury much in the same way).

[sportfuryman]

Sorta looks like a big fusion I wish they would have brought out the sixteen concept they showed about five years back

[lifesacalamity]

Same here man, i would have bought that piece of work, this design here is a very poor one

[Nikebasket]

Same here too.. They should have used the Sixteen design concept>>> Im disappointed..

This design lacks passion, excitement, and personality.. a it boring

[bnz500]

Chassis built and designed in Australia. (VE Statesman Caprice)

[youlance29]

XTS KING IN 2012!!!!!

[quatlen]

Your comment isn't relavent to me missing one letter. Stop being annoying.

[xxMafia101]

FUCK HYBRIDS

[AccidentallyFunny]

last-gen Milan/fusion is what I'm reminded of just by seeing the front end of this vehicle.

[bg1379]

WHAT in the hell is he wearing?!

[NinjaForeChrist]

looks like a mairiner & fusion bulked up duplicate with more luxury.

[devyvalentino]

looks very heavier and still the best looking luxury car

[MrAndersonSS]

esse sim é um carro de luxo

[stealthbomma]

not impressed in the least

[Crazyglues]

Is it me or is all Cadillac cars starting to look like the Cadillac Converj...

why don't they just make the Converj

[ShaoKarn335]

They dont do a FWD cadillac apart from te saab based BLS.

For this car it looks much better then the STS (sts replacement im guessing),

Shame there not gonna do a new XLR

[flaconyc1]

It's cool that its a hybrid but I'm very unimpressed.

[NigguhJason]

"coolerdude44" No. I just don't give American companies much credit.

Its either FWD standard or AWD option.

If not, it might just be straight up AWD.

It doesn't seem like Cadillac would put a RWD option on this car. IMO.

[caddyman07]

AWD is standard. In the press conference, he stated that the name XTS also refers to the cars AWD.

[coolerdude44]

@NigguhJason if this car's not rear wheel drive, then it greatly hinders its chances of competing with the germans. today, cadillac has high expectations.

[coolerdude44]

@NigguhJason meant aspirations....

[coolerdude44]

if it wasn't a plugin hybrid, i'd buy it.

[colombia3229]

hahaha u will have 2 almost all cars in the future and future models of cars will become hybrid electric or might as well be replaced

[coolerdude44]

i don't see that happening.

[NigguhJason]

My predictions are FWD standard. AWD option.

[coolerdude44]

@NigguhJason FWD standard?!?!?! with 350 bhp?  are you mad?

[caddyman07]

AWD standard.

[geedunk13]

it better be AWD, and make it now, not 2012

[Artyfil]

Even though I doubt it, I hope its RWD.

[Reptar2]

Cadillac is doing it wrong .. they must build an all new platform ... not use the FWD lacrosse one ... come on

[MidnightZeto]

Design-wise they're failling on the same pothole Porsche is: they only have one car. Many versions of it but.. come on.. It's still one car (Though there's the SUV as well, but car-car speaking...)

[gasfgiop]

all car talk aside, what's up with weaver's shirt? :P

[mrjost55]

lol so true

[hiddenangel89]

@gasfgiop He vomited on his shirt before the interview!...disgusting!!!

[m140m]

2012 is a long time from now....Cadillac needs this car NOW.

[igropeforluna]

@m140m - I agree. gm needs to be ahead of the tech curve instead of trailing behind. otherwise, they won't be able to sell these cars and bring back consumer confidence in the american luxury car(or any car segment for that matter) market. consumers want smart and efficient cars with quality materials and we wanted it yesterday. thats the unfortunate reality for gm.

[seroyer2]

I don't know why people don't like this, I think they should drop v8, and a V12 option in it and I would be a fantastic car. looks expensive and thats just what Cadillac needs.

[NoxNoctisUmbra]

looks CHEAP, and looks the same for the past 6 years! what gives?

[spritz0]

Well, I guess Mercedes is finished now in Canada and USA!! This is absolutely a work of ART....and L U S T :)

[uflnuceng]

@spritz0 .... its a worked over buick lacrosse... not what a Cadillac should be to me. Give me V6 and V8 rear wheel drive luxury cars, snow or sun... not this plug in crap.

[FerrariandBMW]

Even so, I think this car will sell a lot since it looks quite nice. I wonder if Caddy will be able to take their glory back

[shadman1911]

@spritz0 After your comment I can only ask: What world do you live in? Mercedes is finished? Pfff!

[SvenX13]

They have the right idea...but needs a tad more style touch up here and there to make it look different from the CTS, imo.

[mhd86]

first attractive caddy lol

[fdespotovski]

wow it's a beast!

[thuglife4ever721]

Looks badass
