A Timeless Icon
Cadillac’s shield-like emblem was originally inspired by the family crest of Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, the founder of the city of Detroit. Over the last 122 years, the Cadillac Crest has continued to evolve to reflect the passage of time and the changing of eras. The latest streamlined, monochrome emblem reflects the vision of the all-electric future of Cadillac vehicles.
Innovation
In 1911, Cadillac debuted the industry’s first electric starter; today the all-electric LYRIQ is paving the way for Cadillac’s electric future. In 1954, Cadillac became the first automaker to apply power steering to all models as a standard feature. Today, SuperCruise users drive over 10 million hands-free miles each month
Cadillac Style
The 1964’s Cadillac Series 62 Coupe combined power with style with the addition of an all-new V8 engine with more horsepower and torque. Today, the powerful Escalade-V is the first SUV to offer the V-Series badge.
Cadillac Power
Back in 1915, the first V-8 engine was mass-produced and introduced in all Cadillac models. The highest-output V-8 engine in Cadillac’s history was a 6.2L Supercharged V-8. The 2022 CT5-V Blackwing showcases the perfect balance between precision and raw power.
Cadillac Detail
The 1959’s Cadillac gave us the soaring tailfins of the Eldorado Biarritz, saluting the jet-age optimism of post-war era innovations with thin vertical taillamps designed to look like jet exhaust flares. Today on the 2021 Escalade, the eye-catching, thin vertical taillamps accentuate the confident aesthetic of the vehicle.
Cadillac Smooth
Magnetic Ride Control, the world’s fastest-reacting suspension, was first introduced on the 2002 Cadillac Seville STS. Today, the Cadillac Escalade is the only full-size luxury SUV to use Magnetic Ride Control technology.
Relax and Enjoy
In 1964, Cadillac offered the first automatic climate control system. Modern Cadillacs are dedicated to your cabin comfort with LYRIQ’s cutting-edge Active Noise Cancellation and comfortable seating that offers lumbar massage and support.
Forward-Looking
Back in 1959, the Cadillac Cyclone Concept Car was born, pulling heavily from the futuristic, ground-breaking aerospace designs of the era. Today, Cadillac’s Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) concept design vehicle employs drone technology to fly passengers over the street surface.
With 122 years of experience, innovation, comfort, and engineering breakthroughs, Cadillac is poised to impact future generations with luxurious and cutting-edge technological features that are sure to revolutionize the auto industry for decades to come.
