Significant Features of the 2013 Cadillac ATS

The official photos and videos
of the 2013 Cadillac CTS were
recently released for the
buying public to view. Upon
the release of these images, a
lot of car experts have noted that the Cadillac CTS was built
using the company's new
engineering concepts as well as
the so-called revolutionary
mechanical designs. In addition
to this, the images as well as some of the information about
the model's starting price
revealed that the ATS is bigger
in size but this would go on
sale with a starting price
similar to those that are tied on most medium-sized cars. But aside from relatively lower
price considering its actual size,
the photos, videos, and some
of the information provided by
Cadillac representatives
unveiled that the 2013 Cadillac ATS was using the new all-
wheel and rear-wheel drive
platform referred to as the
"Alpha" platform. The vehicle's
set-up also suggests that fifty
percent of its overall weight will be confined on the rear
while the remaining fifty
would be handled by the front
wheels. In addition to this, it is
also quite obvious that the
dimension of the 2013 Cadillac ATS is quite identical to what
the popular BMW 3-series has. The 2013 Cadillac ATS will also
be offered with three engine
options and any buyers are
free to choose which of these
are suited to their driving
lifestyle.. This includes the 2.5- liter in-line 4-cylinder engine,
the turbocharged 4-cylinder
engine, and the 3.6-liter V-6
engine. The 2.5-liter in-line four
would be the model's base
powerplant that could produce 200 horsepower and 188 lb.-ft.
of torque. This is mated to 6-
speed automatic transmission
and offered as a rear-wheel
drive vehicle only.
