2015 Cadillac ATS-L Is "Coming With Length"

Our most recent review of the Cadillac ATS determined that Cadillac had finally made a sports sedan worthy of besting the F30 BMW 3-Series. But the ATS was also docked points for providing E36 3-Series-esque rear passenger space. Cadillac’s Chinese division appears to have remedied the problem, with a rather unfortunate English marketing slogan.

For the Cadillac ATS-L’s launch, Cadillac has decided to go with the rather unfortunate slogan “I’m Coming With Length”. We’ll leave it at that.

The ATS-L really is packing more size. With an additional 3 inches of wheelbase, .79 inches of width and a .25 inch lower ride height, the ATS-L is the car that we should have gotten all along. From the photos, it doesn’t look like the car’s proportions were compromised either. Powertrains are the same as well, but only the 2.0T and 3.6L engines are available.

We now return to your regularly scheduled, less juvenile programming.

    This topic has been stroked to its climax with Nazi like precision and zeal.

    I am wondering if the ATS-L chassis might be what we will see under the 2016 Camaro rather than the larger CTS chassis which could make the Camaro too heavy.

  • FormerFF I worked in a Fiat shop back then. The X-1/9 was probably the most fun you could have in a car at that time. No power, but wonderful unassisted steering and brakes and smallish tires meant you could use all of the car and have a blast at moderate speeds. The electricals were fragile, but as long as you kept up with the maintenance it was a reasonably reliable ride.Like every other import from that era, if the roads got salted where you were, these were rust prone.

  • Lorenzo The only thing that should be sustainable for a business is making and selling products at a profit. People who wear crocs, eat gluten-free bagels, and own crystals won't like it, but it's the only long-term sustainability there is.
  • Lorenzo I don't celebrate the beginning of Summer until the Solstice on June 20 this year. I used to go to England and dance naked around Stonehenge with the druids, but the "authorities" put the kibosh on that. Now I just bake potatoes wrapped in foil on my car's engine block, in the driveway.
