· Dramatic new exterior design for luxurious rear-wheel drive Cadillac saloon
· Lavishly equipped, sophisticated and hand-crafted leather trimmed interior
· New 311 ps 3.6-litre V6 petrol engine with direct injection and variable valve train
· Six-speed automatic transmission with manual mode (with paddle shift on 3.6)
The all-new 2009 Cadillac CTS luxury saloon arrives in UK showrooms from 1 September 2008. With a dramatic coupe-like profile, the new right-hand-drive CTS has a lavish specification as standard. Both engines are mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. An advanced 2.9 litre V6 diesel engine will join the new CTS line-up in 2009.
When it made its debut in 2002, the first CTS helped change the perception of the brand throughout Europe and the US. Now the all-new model arrives, redesigned from the ground up, with new world-class engines and transmissions and dramatic new styling inside and out. The new 2009 Cadillac CTS, manufactured at the award-winning GM Lansing Grand River Assembly Center, is destined to change the perception of the brand once again.
Both front-engine rear-wheel-drive sport saloon models feature a single premium ‘Sport Luxury’ specification with a class-leading level of standard equipment, exceptional refinement, and a performance-oriented driving experience.
Standard equipment on both models is so comprehensive that the factory options list has only two items – other than choice of paint finish, which includes nine solid, metallic, Tri-coat, Tintcoat, and ChromaFlair® colours. Option 1 is the power glass ‘Ultra View’ sunroof that covers more than 70% of the roof, giving both front- and rear-seat passengers a sky view.
The 3.6 model has all the features of the 2.8, but also comes with paddle shift controls for the six-speed automatic transmission, high-performance tuned self-leveling rear suspension, chrome finish for the 18-inch alloy wheels, dual chrome-tipped exhaust tail pipes, and voice activation for the infotainment system.

That's a terrific beast. Any plans of launching such high end vehicles in the Indian market?
