Cadillac DTS:

Above is the New 2006 Cadillac DTS (formerly the DeVille) this Caddy retains the front wheel drive configuration that Cadillac developed with Oldsmobile in 1967. It has a MASAVE DOHC 32 valve per cylinder V-8 engine. This allows the DTS to produce 275 horse power at 6000 rpm and 292 pound ft of torque at 6,300 rmp standard, or if you opt for the performance model, you can command 295 horses at 4,400 rpm geared for 288 pound ft of torque at 4,500 rpm. This

Cadillac is unlike other new Cadillacs in that it retains not only the FWD, but most of Cadillac's traditional features. These include a plush floaty ride and enough room to seat four adults with still more room to spare and a trunk like those of the mid-sixties Cadillac’s (18.8 cubic feet of cargo space). Not to mention the eggcrate grille, and stacked head lights and tail lights (gotta love the wanna-be fins) The New Cadillac departs from the previous DeVille by incorporating an undated four wheel independent suspension that is self leveling and is stiffened by front and rear stabilizer bars. General Motor's "Magnetic Ride Control" and "StabiliTrak" systems team together to provide a much tighter turning radius and less body lean. The DTS is also quieter thanks to a new way to mount the engine, by using a separate cradle and Variable Valve Timing to reduce engine vibrations and to keep them from entering the cabin.

A first this year in the industry for safety is Cadillac's new air bag deployment system that uses sensors to determine how a "dual-depth" front-passenger airbag actually deploys. This dual-depth airbag will vary its inflated volume based on the occupant's weight and seating position as well as data gathered from the crash it self.
