Cadillac Puts Hold on ATS Coupe - Wide Open Throttle Episode 1

On the premiere episode of Wide Open Throttle, Jessi Lang brings you the latest on Cadillac's decision to suspend ATS Coupe development, the cutting-edge turbo technology destined for Porsche's next-generation 911 Turbo, and all the major automotive players in this year's Super Bowl commercial blitz.

Plus Carlos Lago heads to Honda headquarters to tour the secret automotive museum kept hidden from the general public.

And Motor Trend's Edward Loh and Angus MacKenzie stop by the WOT studio to debate the potential fallout from Cadillac's surprising ATS reversal.

Wide Open Throttle appears every Thursday on the new Motor Trend channel.

[MotorTrend]

Actually the Autoblog headline is slightly misleading. In Autoblog's story Cadillac's David Caldwell neither confirms nor denies our piece, commenting only that "there has been no recent radical shift in strategy" and that "on either end of the spectrum the reporting is inaccurate". Caldwell says Cadillac will do variants, but admits "we haven't yet called our shot of how we're going to execute that"... (cont)

[MotorTrend]

...Cars take years to go from planning to production. For a GM executive to say the company doesn't know how it will execute its plan to roll out variants of the ATS at this point in time clearly suggests that while the variants may have been planned, and even designed and ready for production, the decision as to when it will launch those variants is still up in the air. We said the ATS coupe is on hold. Nothing David Caldwell has said contravenes that statement.

@motortrend oh, i hadn't seen this response. thanks for responding. my point is that what excited me about your search for the next WOT presenter, now 2 months ago was that Angus said the magic word that has been missing from your videos since I started watching them on the ipad edition and here, passion. He said it, I didn't. So I was looking for passion specifically from WOT. I'm seeing glimpses of passion and excitement here and there, keep it up.

[MysticCobra04]
