Cadillac


Building on the success of the first generation CTS sport sedan, Cadillac’s development team set even higher targets for every aspect of the driving dynamics of the all-new 2008 version. The goal was to reach handling limits near sports-car levels, while also adopting the poise and smoothness of prestigious luxury sedans.

With a 50-mm wider track and input from Cadillac’s acclaimed V-Series models, Cadillac sent the new CTS back to the famed Nürburgring track. The engineering team also exhaustively road- tested the car on city streets and country roads across China, North Americaand Europe. The result is improved chassis hardware and a more finely tuned car.

Engineers designed and developed new geometry for both the independent short/long arm front suspension and the multilink rear suspension, driven primarily by the wider track and the application of all-wheel drive. The front track is now 1,569 mm, and rear track is 1,575 mm. The wheelbase remains at 2,880 mm. Three suspension levels are offered: FE1, FE2 and the performance-oriented FE3 (rear-drive only); each is tuned for specific ride and handling characteristics, and availability varies by market.
