Cadillac ATS Lightweighting Heavy on Chemistry


DETROIT – Engineers on the Cadillac ATS took a chemistry-lab approach to deliver the brand's first entry into the compact luxury sedan segment.  Metals such as Martensitic alloys and ultra-high strength steel, among other materials, help make ATS one of the lightest vehicles in the class.
Still, the ATS is among the safest, earning a 5-star overall crash test rating in the New Car Assessment Program run by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Cadillac has been a leading luxury auto brand since 1902. In recent years, Cadillac has engineered a historic renaissance led by artful engineering and advanced technology.
