New Models Create Cadillac Momentum in U.S.

DETROIT – Two all-new models and momentum in key markets like the West Coast drove a 37 percent increase in U.S. sales for Cadillac’s rebuilt car lineup in October.

The new XTS luxury sedan sold more than 2,000 units for the third consecutive month while the new ATS sport sedan started to gain momentum in its first complete month on the market. 

Among initial buyers who traded in a vehicle to purchase an ATS, 70 percent are new to Cadillac. In the crucial and often trend-setting state of California, Cadillac retail sales rose 70 percent in October over the same month last year, and are up 13 percent year-to-date.

 “We are building momentum with our new sedan models and it’s being led by increased demand in the leading regional markets in the U.S.,” said Chase Hawkins, vice president of Cadillac U.S. sales.  “We’re taking a very long-term approach, but the initial feedback is very strong as ATS creates an entryway into the Cadillac brand for new luxury consumers.”

Cadillac reported October retail gains of 15 percent compared to October 2011, and 11 percent total sales increase year over year. October was the brand’s fifth consecutive month of retail sales gains.

The SRX also had its best October sales month ever, up 19 percent over September.

Hennessey Cadillac CTS-V Hits 220.5 MPH, Named Fastest In World

There's a new toll road in Texas called SH130, and a segment of it just opened with an 85 mph speed limit. Apparently, Hennessey doesn't care much about limits.

The Hennessey VR1200 twin-turbo Cadillac CTS-V Coupe is another example of the company not really caring about limits. It generates  1,226 horsepower (1,066 at the rear wheels) and 1,109 pound-feet of torque (964 at the wheels). That makes it good for 0-60 times of 2.9 seconds, quarter-mile ETs at 10.2 and 141 mph, and a top speed of 242 mph.

On Texas SH130, the VR1200 CTS-V Coupe didn't hit top speed, but it did speed its way into the record books, becoming the fastest CTS-V in the world when it hit 220.5 mph during a test of the TxTag toll system in cooperation with the Texas State Police.
