Driven: 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe 3.6L Premium
When Cadillac rolled out the high performance CTS-V sedan, along with its subsequent coupe and wagon counterparts, it started to become clear that fairly sweeping change was underway for the company. In the ensuing years, there’s been a concerted effort to change public perception of Cadillac from the go-to choice for reasonably well-heeled pensioners to something more youthful, relevant, and performance oriented. Or to put it another way, more BMW-like. But to truly complete with BMW, they needed a worthy 3-Series fighter, and that’s just what we got with the all-new 2013 ATS sedan – a tour-de-force of GM’s latest engineering efforts designed specifically to beat the German’s at their own game. The sedan has earned high praise from critics and consumers alike, but if Cadillac wanted to achieve parity in the segment, they’d also need an answer to the two door BMW 4-Series and the Mercedes-Benz C-Class as well. Enter the 2015 ATS Coupe.

Driven: 2013 Cadillac ATS
We gazed upon the Cadillac ATS in person, with the words “It’s gorgeous” on the tip of our tongue. It looks quite a lot like the macho CTS sedan, only smaller, and with an overall image that feels simply more elegant.
First Look: 2013 Cadillac ATS
Cadillac has officially taken the wraps off its new BMW 3-Series fighter, the ATS. There will be three engine options, with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder powering the base model. Uprated models will feature either a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder with 270 horsepower or the 320-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 from the bigger CTS. Power will be sent to the rear wheels via either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic. All-wheel drive will also be available.
GM Teases Cadillac ATS Sedan, Announces Production Plans For 2012
GM’s product renaissance is set to continue well into 2012, with the launch of two new Cadillac models. The ATS will be a dedicated competitor to other entry-level, rear-drive luxury sport sedans. As of right now, the ATS’s launch is planned for the summer of 2012, with production planned at the Lansing, Michigan Grand River Assembly Plant. We can’t see much from the teaser image, but smallest Caddy looks to refine the CTS’s design language, with similar sharp angles and creases. We’d expect to see the ATS debut at one of the big four American auto shows (LA, Chicago, New York, or Detroit).
