Cadillac CTS AWD Coupe is AutoBild Allrad Car of the Year

Posted on: Tuesday, March 29, 2011

The Houston Cadillac Dealers are excited to share that readers of German motoring magazine AutoBild Allrad have selected the Cadillac CTS All-Wheel Drive Coupe ‘Car of the Year’ in the import category of the sports car/coupe/convertible segment.

The Cadillac CTS AWD Coupe was chosen over competitors like Nissan GT-R, Lamborghini Gallardo, Bentley Continental GT and Alfa Romero Brera Q4. Wolfgang Schubert, managing director of Cadillac Europe, received the prize from Dr. Hans Hamer, managing director of Axel Apringer Auto Verlag, and Bernhard Weinbacher, editor-in-chief of AutoBild Allrad.

“I am very happy to see that the new presence of Cadillac on the European marketplace has been noticed and appreciated,” Schubert said.

The Cadillac CTS Coupe was introduced to Europe in the fall of 2010. Cadillac’s CTS distinctive design and sports-car performance make it the highest-profile model of the new Cadillac European line-up. The standard CTS Coupe power train consists of a 229kW/311 hp direct-injected 3.6 L V-6 engines and six-speed manual transmission.

Thanks to the all-wheel-drive option, the Cadillac CTS Coupe’s performance credentials have been strengthened in Europe. The CTS AWD system automatically and effortlessly delivers AWD operation as required by driving conditions through computer controls and patented modulating clutch. Information is interpreted by the vehicle’s computer system, which adjusts the amount of power delivered to the front wheels up to 50 times per second. This isn’t just a technology that is used in Europe. The American CTS AWD system delivers the same great results. 

The Cadillac CTS Coupe’s AWD system was designed to work in sync with StabiliTrak, Cadillac’s electronic stability control system, to minimize brake intervention and improve vehicle traction and handling on dry, wet, icy and snowy road conditions.
