(from GM Press
Release) 2013 CADILLAC CTS COUPE DELIVERS DRAMATIC STYLE AND
PERFORMANCE
New for 2013
Revised grille
appearance
Adaptive remote vehicle starter now standard on all models
Exterior colors: Glacier Blue Metallic, Silver Coast Metallic
and Summer Gold Metallic
Cadillac CTS Coupe is a
dramatic, 2+2 rear-drive sports coupe with a design transferred
virtually unchanged from the concept vehicle that inspired it.
Offered in Base, Performance and Premium Collections, all models
feature a powerful and efficient 3.6L engine, rated at 318
horsepower (237 kW) and delivering an EPA-estimated 27 mpg on the
highway.
The CTS Coupe has the same wheelbase as the CTS Sedan, but an
overall height that is approximately two inches (51 mm) lower and an
overall length that is two inches (51 mm) shorter. While it is based
on the same architecture, the CTS Coupe shares only the instrument
panel, console, headlamps, front fenders and grille with its Sedan
sibling. Its distinctive features include:
Classic hardtop
styling, with no conventional B-pillar
Touch-pad operation for the doors removes the need for
conventional door handles, creating a technical, clean profile
A windshield laid at a faster angle (62.3 degrees) and a long,
nearly horizontal backglass area combine to create a dramatic
profile
Sculpted lower front fascia with unique brake-cooling vents
Rear fascia with mesh lower grilles
Center-outlet exhaust with twin dihedral-shaped tips that pass
through the rear fascia
Signature vertical lighting, highlighted with LED light pipes
Rear spoiler integrated into the signature center high-mounted
stop lamp
Sculpted roof-mounted antenna for OnStar and SiriusXM
Satellite Radio.
The CTS Coupe
complements a range of models and body styles that includes CTS
Sedan, Wagon and the high-performance V-Series. All-wheel drive is
available, along with Touring and Performance packages that enhance
the appearance and sporting driving feel.
Continuous improvements have helped keep the CTS family at the top
of customer consideration lists and earn critical praise. That
legacy continues in 2013, as the CTS Coupe receives a new grille
finish, new exterior color choices Glacier Blue Metallic, Silver
Coast Metallic and Summer Gold Metallic and the adaptive remote
vehicle starting system is now standard on all models.
Please see separate releases for CTS Wagon and CTS Sedan. Also,
please see the separate release for CTS-V Coupe.

aluminum intake and an integrated cylinder head/exhaust manifold
design that saves approximately 13 pounds (6 kg) per engine.

all CTS Coupe RWD models. The Hydra-Matic 6L50 is used with AWD
models.
