2014 Cadillac CTS, ATS, and XTS Earn 5-Star Safety Ratings from the NHTSA

June 27, 2013 - PRLog -- Motor Werks Cadillac of Barrington is looking forward to the coming months when the dealership will be able to offer the 2014 editions of the CTS, ATS and XST. Although these vehicles have yet to hit showrooms, they are already generating a lot of buzz. Each model has received a five-star rating in crash tests performed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

The front and rear-wheel-drive versions of the 2014 CTS (http://www.motorwerkscadillac.com/2014-cadillac-cts-sedan.htm) and 2014 XTS earned a score of five in the frontal crash tests and side crash tests. The vehicles received fours in the rollover tests. The impressive compact 2014 ATS took fives across the board for both the rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive models.

In addition to high overall safety scores, each of these vehicles is equipped with a variety of tech features and luxurious details. The high-end materials, like available hand-cut-and-sewn Opus semi aniline leather as well as natural-finish elm wood on the 2014 CTS, add a touch of elegance. The 2014 XTS (http://www.motorwerkscadillac.com/2014-cadillac-xts-sedan...) will offer Cadillac’s CUE driver interface, which includes helpful attributes like a voice recognition system, Bluetooth capability, navigation, and audio streaming.

Not only are these vehicles luxurious, but they are powerful as well. It is speculated that the 2014 ATS sedan (http://www.motorwerkscadillac.com/2014-cadillac-ats-sedan...) and coupe will maintain the rear-wheel drive platform, and an all-wheel drive platform will be available along with the turbocharged and V6 engine trim levels. It is also likely that Cadillac will stick with their three current engine choices for this model. Drivers can also expect that Cadillac will offer a direct-injection 3.6L V6 engine with a six-speed automatic transmission on the 2014 XTS.
