This November the highly anticipated version of the second generation 2008 Cadillac CTS will celebrate its Middle East debut at the region’s largest biennial motor show. And just like its predecessor that has previously made its debut last 2002, General Motors premium brand mid-sized saloon would showcase new exciting styling, superior handling and outstanding performance.

The new generation CTS sedan with high quality Cadillac floor mats is much larger with new exciting exterior and interior design. The sporty and nearly coupe like exterior of the new CTS projects a more athletic stance. Some of its remarkable styling cues were derived from the Cadillac Sixteen concept.

Inside, the CTS focus more in providing its occupants with comfort and of course since it’s a Cadillac it’s given a plush interior that combines French stitched leather, wood, carbon fiber or aluminum trim. The other features equipped on the new version CTS include a double sunroof that was derived from Cadillac’s SRX crossover which allows both the front as well as the rear passengers to enjoy a sky view. There is also a LED mood lightning that was added.

For the CTS heading to the Middle East, GM will equipped them with a new port or direct injection high performance 3.6 liter V6 VVT engine mated to a new Hydra-Matic 6L50 six-speed automatic gearbox which is a first for the CTS.

The latest direct-injection technology will also help the normally-aspirated engine to combine together extra power and economy. Power for the CTS is at 311hp enhanced by 15 percent while torque goes up by 8 percent. Cold-start hydrocarbon emissions were lowered by 25 percent while the port-injection version offers 266hp on tap.

The new CTS has perfect handling which is a quality seen from sports saloon. GM will offer the new CTS in both rear and all-wheel-drive configurations with an option of three suspension set-ups of which include luxury FE1, stiffer FE2 and the track ready FE3.
