LA Auto Show 2011 - Cadillac XTS

Cadillac has unveiled the XTS executive car at the LA show, which sticks admirably close to the concept version shown at Detroit last year. Its interior has lots of wood grain and the dashboard is covered in soft-touch plastics.

Cadillac says there are no firm plans to bring the car to Europe as yet. Even if it does, it will remain left-hand drive and no diesel versions are planned.

However, the main priority for Cadillac in Europe will be the ATS – a BMW 3 series rival, which will make its debut in Detroit in January and will launch in June. It will come to Europe – with a diesel engine and in right-hand drive form.
