Cadillac DTS / Overview

A longtime symbol of Cadillac luxury, the DeVille takes on new life as the DTS for 2006. From its Cadillac-signature exterior styling and luxurious interior to its powerful, refined ride characteristics and safety and convenience technologies, theDTS is one of the nameplate's latest iterations of Cadillac luxury and continues the division's product renaissance.

This front-wheel-drive large luxury sedan uses a single-model strategy (one exterior, one interior with multiple option packages) and expands Cadillac's alpha naming strategy.

A product of unwavering attention to detail, DTS is designed and engineered to continue DeVille's sales success, which commanded nearly 50 percent of sales in its segment for nearly two decades.
