Cadillac DTS
The Cadillac DTS (DeVille
Touring Sedan) replaces the Cadillac DeVille
as that carmaker's largest luxury car for
the 2006 model year. The DTS follows the naming
and styling direction set by the earlier CTS
and STS. Cadillac
DTS Presidential LimousineThe design of the
DTS was introduced in a unique way. A specially-designed
and outfitted presidential DTS limousine was
utlized during the second inauguration of
George W. Bushin the January 20, 2005 parade.
While details of the vehicle, codenamed Stagecoach,
are highly classified, it is presumed to be
heavily armored and feature advanced communication
equipment. The production DTS was shown at
the 2005 Chicago Auto Show on February 9.
The DTS is manufactured
at GM's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly factory
in Hamtramck, Michigan. The Luxury models
are priced at US$41,990, while the Performance
version is priced at US$50,490.
One
major feature change from the Deville to
the DTS was the deletion of the 6-passenger
seating option for non-limousine models.
