2011 Cadillac CTS Wagon

Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

Introduced in 2010 to supplement Cadillac's successful CTS Sedan, the 2011 Cadillac CTS Wagon combines the acclaimed sedan's sharp styling, world class handling and high quality fit and finish with an extra 25 cu ft of cargo room behind the rear seats. Available in base, luxury, performance and premium trim levels, the 5-door Wagon can be equipped with a 3.0-liter 270 hp V-6 or a 3.6-liter 304 hp Direct Injection V-6. A 6-speed automatic with rear or all wheel drive help deliver up to 18/26 mpg city/hwy. All CTS Wagons feature an exclusive hidden crossbar roof rack, OnStar, USB connectivity, front, side, curtain airbags and stability control. Also available are a pop up NAV system, rear view camera, performance suspension and 19 inch wheel options. The CTS Wagon is a high-style sport sedan with added convenience and cargo room which should compare well to European rivals.

Benefits of Driving a 2011 Cadillac CTS Wagon

With its edgy styling, sport-tuned chassis, and luxurious interior appointments, the Cadillac CTS is well-placed to take on mid-size sport sedans from Japan and Europe. And with available all-wheel drive, several body and trim configurations, and its high-performance CTS-V option, it's a strong competitor at several price points.

What's new for 2011?

For 2011, Cadillac's best-selling CTS line gains a new coupe version, joining the existing 4-door sedan and wagon. Styled much like the familiar sedan, the new coupe features a steeper rake to the windshield and unique lines, giving it a bold and aggressive stance. Sedans and wagons are again available with the 3.0L 270-hp V6 or the 3.6L 304-hp V6, while the new coupe gets the 3.6. The CTS-V sedan returns and adds the coupe variant as well. No major changes have been made to the lineup, but Black Ice Metallic and Evolution Green Metallic are now available as extra-cost colors, and new Ebony seats with Saffron sueded fabric inserts are available on CTS-V coupe only. Several new wheel options are also available.

Model Strengths

Striking design in coupe, sedan, and wagon versions, top-level luxury, muscle car performance from available CTS-V.

Model Review

The 2011 Cadillac CTS is offered in three body styles: sedan, sport wagon, and coupe. For the sedan and wagon, two trim levels are available, starting with the base 3.0, which features a 3.0L 270-hp V6 and a standard 6-speed manual or optional 6-speed automatic transmission. The 3.6 is powered by a 3.6-L 304-hp V6 and a standard 6-speed automatic, although the 6-speed manual is available as a credit option. The coupe gets the 3.6, and all three body styles can be ordered with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

Safety Ratings What do the Safety Ratings mean? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) performs independent crash testing of new vehicles and then assigns them a score based on their performance. The overall crash test rating is based on how a vehicle performs in the following tests: Driver Crash Grade: Measures the chance of a serious injury to a crash test dummy that is placed in a driver's seat and driven into a fixed barrier at 35 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less chance of injury. Passenger Crash Grade: Similar to the driver crash grade, only now the focus is on the passenger. Rollover Resistance: Simulates an emergency lane change to measure the likelihood of a vehicle rolling over. A five-star rating means there is 10 percent or less risk of rollover. Side Impact Crash Test - Front: Focuses on the front side of a vehicle. It simulates crashes that can occur in intersections by striking a 3,015-pound weight against the side of a vehicle at 38.5 MPH. A five-star rating means there is 5 percent or less chance of injury. Side Impact Crash Test - Rear: Similar to the front side impact test only now the focus is on the rear passenger.

Original Warranty Original Warranty An original warranty is the warranty associated with a vehicle when it is brand new. In addition to the original warranty, select items, like tires, are typically covered by respective manufacturers. Also, an act of Federal law sometimes provides protection for certain components, like emissions equipment. The original warranty is often broken down into multiple sections, including: Basic Warranty: Typically covers everything except for parts that wear out through normal use of the vehicle. Examples of non-covered items are brake pads, wiper blades and filters. Drivetrain Warranty: This warranty covers items the basic warranty does not protect. Wear and tear items such as hoses will not be covered, but key items like the engine, transmission, drive axles and driveshaft often will be. Roadside Assistance: The level of service differs greatly with this warranty, but many manufacturers offer a toll-free number that helps provide assistance in case you run out of gas, get a flat tire or lock your keys in the car. Corrosion Warranty: This warranty focuses on protecting you from holes caused by rust or corrosion in your vehicle's sheet metal. Please check the owner's manual, visit a local dealership or look at the manufacturer's website to learn more about the specifics of the warranties that apply to a vehicle.	Miles	Months

Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Warranty Certified Pre-Owned Warranty To be eligible for Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status, vehicles generally must be recent models with relatively low mileage. CPO vehicles must also pass a detailed inspection, outlined by the manufacturer, which is measured by the number of inspected points. Warranty coverage can vary from one manufacturer to the next. While most certified pre-owned programs transfer and extend the existing new car warranty terms, others offer a warranty that simply represents an additional year and mileage value. Always check with the manufacturer for the specific warranties they offer. Common features and benefits of Certified Pre-Owned warranties include: Age/Mileage Eligibility To even be considered for certification, a car must be a recent model year and have limited mileage. The exact requirements are established by individual manufacturers. Lease Term Certified Some manufacturers offer certified pre-owned cars for lease. The length of the lease is often shorter than a new car lease, but it will cost you less. Point Inspection These inspections entail a comprehensive vehicle test to ensure that all parts are in excellent working order. The point inspection list is simply a numbered list of exactly what parts of the car are examined. While many inspections range from a 70- to 150-point checklist, most are very similar and are performed using strict guidelines. Ask your local dealer about specific details. Return/Exchange Program Some manufacturers offer a very limited return or exchange period. Find out if you will get the sales tax and licensing/registration fees back should you return or exchange the car. Roadside Assistance Most certified pre-owned programs offer free roadside service in case your car breaks down while still under warranty. Special Financing Reduced-rate loans are available through many certified pre-owned programs. Manufacturer-backed inspections and warranties help eliminate the risks involved with buying pre-owned, so buyers who qualify can take advantage of the great offers. Transferable Warranty When a new car warranty transfers with the certification of the car and remains eligible for the next owner, it is known as a transferable warranty. Once the original transferable warranty expires, an extended warranty takes effect. Warranty Deductible This is the amount for which you are responsible when repair work is performed under the warranty. Some manufacturers require a deductible while others don't, so always ask.
