Some brands rest on their laurels. Cadillac continues to move forward in its pursuit of excellence. A leading luxury auto brand since 1902, Cadillac is in the midst of a historic renaissance led by artful engineering, distinctive design and advanced technology through its CTS family of sports cars, SRX crossover and Escalade sport utility vehicle.
The CTS Sedan, Wagon and Coupe make up one of the most acclaimed lines of luxury cars in the world, earning a spot on Car and Driver's 10 Best list for four straight years.
The high-performance V-Series models of the CTS provide world-class power and control and offer a 6.2L supercharged V-8 that delivers 556 horsepower and a Magnetic Ride Control suspension system that can read and react to the road 1,000 times a second.
The SRX has injected Cadillac's distinctive design into the luxury crossover segment, combining the function of an SUV with the handling of a car. Cadillac can confidently call the brand "The New Standard of the World."
Bill Scheffler, Fairfield County Concours Chairman and Co-Founder, said, "We are proud that a luxury brand of American-made and designed vehicles is joining our event. Cadillac represents the epitome of the resurgence of American automotive industry."
