The Cadillac ATS is an all-new, lightweight, rear-wheel drive sedan that aims to take the fight to the dominant BMW 3-Series in the compact premium segment.
The ATS gains the latest interpretation of Cadillac's ‘Art & Science' design language, building on the recent, bigger XTS' aesthetics. Fortunately, the ATS' proportions are far more appealing than its awkward bigger brother, with short overhangs, a long wheelbase and wide tracks giving it a good stance. Vertical head- and tail-lamp graphics continue the Caddy iconography.
Inside, the ATS gains Cadillac's CUE infotainment system, which features a digital dial pack and a large, central touchscreen interface that features haptic feedback. The system is covered in detail here.
