2010 Cadillac DTS,Review

The 2010 Cadillac DTS returns largely unchanged, except for the loss of last year's Performance model.
Well, that old clich� actually turns out to be a pretty succinct summation of the
2010 Cadillac DTS sedan.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The
2010 Cadillac DTS full-size sedan is available in one well-equipped base model and three increasingly upscale trim levels dubbed Luxury, Premium and Platinum.
The standard equipment list for the entry-level DTS includes 17-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlights, front foglights, remote engine start, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, power front seats, Bluetooth, OnStar and an eight-speaker CD stereo.

Interior upgrades include a three-zone climate control system, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, driver seat memory settings and an eight-speaker Bose audio system with a six-disc CD changer.
Top-of-the-line Platinum models add several of the best mechanical bits from last year's Performance trim level, including a more powerful version of the base 4.6-liter V8 engine, electronic Magnetic Ride Control suspension and 18-inch wheels. Other notable options include adaptive cruise control and a 40/20/40-split front bench that gives the
2010 Cadillac DTS seating for six.
Front-wheel drive is standard.
The DTS Platinum differs with 22 mpg on the highway.

Safety
Standard safety features include electronic stability control, antilock disc brakes, side-impact airbags for front seat passengers and side curtain airbags that cover both rows. In government crash tests, the
2010 Cadillac DTS scored five stars (out of five) for the driver and four stars for the front seat passenger in frontal impacts. Side-impact tests resulted in four stars front and rear.

Interior Design and Special Features
While front bucket seats are standard, the available 40/20/40-split front bench makes this one of the few modern sedans that offers seating for six.

2011 Cadillac DTS,Reviews

The Cadillac DTS sedan is available in five package / trim levels: 1SA, 1SB, 1SC, 1SD and Performance. All five models come standard with all-speed traction control, 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, cruise control, leather seating and at least dual-zone front climate control. The 1SB package adds StabiliTrak electronic stability control system with brake assist, an ultrasonic parking assist system, as well as GM's heated windshield washer fluid. The two outboard rear seats are electrically heated along with the steering wheel.

For 2011, the
Cadillac DTS carries over essentially unchanged.
The 2011 Cadillac DTS sedan is something of a modern take on the classic American luxury car. In fairness, some of those vehicles can cost $10,000-$30,000 more than the 2011
Cadillac DTS. As an American luxury sedan in the classical sense, the DTS gets it right.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The
2011 Cadillac DTS full-size sedan is available in four increasingly well-equipped trim levels: base, Luxury, Premium and Platinum.

The base DTS includes 17-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlights, foglights, remote engine start, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, power front seats, OnStar and an eight-speaker CD stereo with satellite radio. Step up to the Luxury model and you get 17-inch chromed wheels, a sunroof, front and rear parking sensors, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, triple-zone climate control system, heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, driver seat memory settings and an eight-speaker Bose audio system with a six-disc CD changer.
Other notable options include adaptive cruise control and a 40/20/40-split front bench that gives the DTS seating for six.
Under the hood, the
2011 Cadillac DTS has a 4.6-liter V8. The DTS Platinum differs with 22 mpg on the highway.

Safety
Standard safety features include electronic stability control, antilock disc brakes, front-seat side airbags and side curtain airbags. Side-impact tests resulted in four stars front and rear.
