VIDEO: 2014 Cadillac ATS Compact RWD Sports Sedan Spied Out Testing


A prototype version of Cadillac�s upcoming BMW 3-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class rival, dubbed the ATS, has been caught on video during road testing. Though still heavily camouflaged, it appears that the Detroit firm�s compact, rear-wheel drive sports sedan will continue with Cadillac�s Art and Science design language.

The new ATS sedan will be positioned below the CTS, taking its place as the Cadillac�s entry-level model. The introduction of the ATS will allow the next iteration of the CTS to grow in dimensions to better compete with Germany�s executive saloons like the BMW 5-Series and Audi A6.

The engine lineup of the ATS is pretty much speculation as of right now, though a supposedly official document that leaked onto the internet in January made word of three engine choices including a 270HP 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, a 330HP 3.6-liter V6 and a 470HP 6.2-liter V8 for the range topping ATS-V.
