I have been saying it for years, Cadillac just doesn't understand that they are going in the wrong direction. Smaller engines and smaller cars is not what people want from a Cadillac.
Now the ATS, The XTS and the ELR are all scheduled for extinction shortly after their unveiling due to poor sales. In fact three of the top ten cars not to buy that are scheduled to shortly be disconncontinued are Cadillacs. When will they start listening to us loyal consumers of what we want in a Cadillac.? they are hoping people are holding off buying the ATS because the CTS6 is coming out shortly (lol good luck with that one ), however that may just get sales of people trading their old leased CTS in for the new CTS. I predict its fall off the grid shortly thereafter as well. The ATS was a stupid decision and never had a chance of bringing newbies over to the Cadillac lineup. The XTS would have sold well if they had just stuck a V8 engine in it. I remember people were chomping at the bit when they first unveiled the prototype at the Chicago Auto Show to purchase one when they said it would have a available v8. Then they pumped them out with a go cart of an engine for a four door sedan that will get as tired as Granny walking up a steep incline after 50,000 miles.
So thats the REAL reason why they are trying to peddle that new ATS frame platform on other models like the 6th gen after they spent all that money producing it. they need to absorb the tooling costs somehow.
