Cadillac Seville

Seville is a well-balanced sports luxury car, and has features to address any American buyer desires. But will it appeal to the foreign market? As an indication of their seriousness, it will be built in both left and right hand drive versions. Sevilles sold overseas will be about 6" shorter.

It's easy to overlook the external changes, because stylists found it important to retain the traditional features. Only when placed side by side with the previous Seville are the changes evident.

The exterior is cleaner and more aero than any previous offering but the interior is perhaps the most radical departure. It has a sleek styling, and includes the first adaptive seat that adjusts to the movement of the occupant.

The final element of Cadillac's Integrated Car Control System is in place, offering the finest skid control yet available in a production car.

Cadillac pioneered the OnStar satellite locator system. It has a 24 hour station to provide directions. Second, road service can be dispatched quickly. Cadillac can trigger the electric lock release remotely, if keys are locked inside. Third, if the car is stolen, OnStar is notified, and will track the car for the police. Fourth, if an accident occurs, emergency services called. And finally, they have the capability to tap into engine computers to diagnose problems.
