If you are looking for a car to take the kids to Yellowstone Park or six friends to a tag team wrestling match, then the 2011 Cadillac CTS V6 Sport Wagon is not your car. However, if you want a highperformance vehicle that is sleek in design with a luminous interior that defines quality and elegance, the adillac CTS V6 Sport Wagon should be your choice. Vertical taillamps extend along the tailgate; integrated roof rails maintain a seamless profile. Rear seats fold down flat, increasing cargo space to 1,642 litres. Also included is an under-floor cargo storage compartment, while a useful power liftgate offers memory height positioning. My wife loved this feature as she filled the back and trunk with Christmas toys for the grandkids.
Altogether, the adillac CTS V6 Sport Wagon offers rear- or all-wheel sport handling, a luxurious interior, and versatile cargo capacity in one complete package. The Stabilitrak electronicstability control system and traction control enhance the suspension geometry of the adillac CTS V6 Sport Wagon. Two engines are offered in this model: a 270-HP 3.0L direct-injection V6 or a 3.6L direct-injection V6 that delivers 304 HP. My test vehicle had the 304-HP engine.

Passenger safety is a primary consideration throughout the engineering process. A strong unit body is structured around you, front and rear crash zones help absorb forces, and comprehensive use of high-strength steel help channel energy away from the passenger compartment in the event of an impact. OnStar Automatic Crash Response is activated automatically in the event of an accident. The CTS Sport Wagon has a total of six airbags for your safety. It has dual-stage frontal airbags and seat-mounted side airbags for the driver and front passenger. In addition, head-curtain, side-impact airbags mounted on the roof rail help protect both front and outboard rear passengers in the event of a side impact.

Cadillac offers one of the best luxury coverage policies in the industry with its 5-year/160,000-km transferable powertrain limited warranty with no deductibles, plus roadside assistance and courtesy transportation. One of the features I liked best about the Cadillac CTS V6 Sport Wagon was the ability to use the rear-view mirror and not be blocked by the headrests atop the backseats. Somehow Cadillac engineers have managed to accomplish something I have not seen on another car: Provide head safety for rear passengers, but not at the expense of a blocked rear window.
The CTS V6 Sport Wagon comes in nine exterior colours and six interior tones. My vehicle had radiant silver outside colour and a light titanium interior.
The fuel economy estimate was 11.8 L/100 km city and 7.5 L/100 km highway. Yet, I got much less than the estimated average, even factoring in how the actual consumption really depends on how you drive. U.S. government safety ratings were all 4 or 5 Star. I liked the fact that the car was assembled in the United States at Lansing, Michigan. The base 1SF package vehicle price was $50,760. The 1SH package model adds a
power moonroof, a wood-trim package, and other luxury items, bumping up the MSRP to $59,680.
