Automotive News is reporting that Cadillac is considering a small rear-wheel-drive sedan powered by a four-cylinder engine for the American market. The car could tentatively arrive in mid-2010 as a 2011 model, but the idea of a little gas-sipper Caddy has at least one high-ranking detractor standing in the way: Jim Taylor, Cadillac General Manager. Taylor reportedly said, "There is a big debate as...

This week I have been driving around in a press fleet Cadillac BLS 1.9 CDTI Wagon. I wanted it to coincide with the interview I did with Jonathan Nash (below link). It's a pretty good piece of kit - the 1.9 litre diesel engine is turbocharged, there's plenty of load space, nice interior finish, subtle but definitely not bland styling (the Cadillac 'origami edges' figure). And the handling is sharp...

Cadillac is like the guy who hits his head against the wall because it's fun to stop. Only they forgot the stopping bit. Australia's GoAuto reports that GM's premier luxury brand will not do the right thing and send the brand-defiling sales flop known as the Cadillac BLS back to whatever corner of Hell is reserved for hideous mutants. " An American GM insider suggested to GoAuto that the next-generation...

Filed under: Diesel , Ethanol , Flex-Fuel , Cadillac , Saab , European Union , UK Since its launch a couple of years ago, sales of the Cadillac BLS have been less than stellar, to say the least. The BLS is a Europe-only model based on the Saab 9-3 and built at Saab's factory in Sweden. At its launch it was only available in four-door sedan form with gasoline engines.

The US, you might think, is the land of the station wagon. At least it was until the SUV came along. So you would have imagined that at some time in its long history, Cadillac would have made such a car, maybe with giant fins flanking the tailgate. Close your eyes and you could even visualise it.

The chaps at Channel 4 got their hands on a Cadillac BLS, which they call the "first Cadillac to be designed specifically for Europe." This is before admitting that it's a badge re-enginered Saab 9-3/Vauxhall Vectra (a gigantic badge that probably adds 20 pounds to the car). It comes in wagon, which is a first for Cadillac, and will include a bioethanol-compatible 2.0-litre turbo in 2008. Below are...
