Grille-Lovin' Rides

The 2012 Cadillac CTS Gets an Updated Grille and Improved Fuel Economy

— April 20, 2011 — Autos
The 2012 Cadillac CTS has changed a bit from the previous models. The newly updated version sports a new grille and a 3.6-liter V6 engine has 318 horsepower, gaining 14 HP on the 2011 model. The grill is what truly stands out with its bright Cadillac crest shining atop the frame and mesh.

The 2012 Cadillac CTS has 275 pound-feet of torque making it a powerful luxurious ride. Surprisingly the fuel economy is rather good considering its power because of its larger intake valves and what Auto Blog states is “an improved port design.” The car is also just over twenty pounds lighter than the 2011 model, which also helps to save on gas. The 2012 Cadillac CTS also has Bluetooth technology and can be purchased with a touring package that adds some awesome special design features.
