Cadillac Prepares the ATS Coupe for Detroit

Cadillac has confirmed that next January, it will unveil a two-door version of its ATS model.

The new car will bear a more classic signature style than the CTS Coupe, currently on the market.

The same motors

The Cadillac ATS Coupe will most likely be powered by the same power plants currently offered in the ATS Sedan, namely:
- A 2.5 litre 4 cylinder making 202 horsepower;
- A turbocharged 2.0-litre 4-cylinder making 272-horsepower;
- A 3.6-litre V6 making 321 horsepower.

Cadillac unveiled the ATS in 2012 and started production in July of that year. The compact sedan hit the market in the fall as a 2013 model and is the smallest sedan in the Cadillac lineup, coming in below the mid-size CTS.

Cadillac had envisioned the CTS as a competitor to the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class however its size made it more suitable to go up against the BMW 5 Series, hence the birth of the ATS.
