Presidential Limousine
Introduces New 2006 Cadillac DTS
by Jenny McLane
Contemporary design cues and bold styling statement are viewed by the public for
the first time as George W. Bush, the President of the United States of America
traveled in the new jet-black state of the art Cadillac DTS limousine during the
parade route along Pennsylvania Avenue during the Presidential Inaugural Parade.
The sight of the president waving from a Cadillac has become an American
tradition.
"We are pleased that our historic relationship with the U.S. government and
chief executive office has continued through the years " said General Motors
Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner.
The new Cadillac DTS limousine is handcrafted and dressed in a jet-black clear
coat finish. The vehicle is a considerably longer, wider and taller version of
the production model that becomes available later this year. To maintain
national security, the limousines are equipped with state-of-the-art protection
and communication systems.
The limousine makes a bold styling statement similar to the new 2006 Cadillac
DTS by incorporating Cadillac's contemporary design cues to the front and rear
portions of the vehicle. Redesigned front and rear fascias integrate Cadillac's
signature egg-crate grille with center-mounted wreath and crest badge,
jewel-like vertically oriented high-intensity xenon headlamps and
state-of-the-art LED tail lamps.
Comfort and visibility for all six occupants, the limo boasts of rear seat
executive package which features a concealed, foldaway desktop that can be
deployed when conducting affairs of state. The rear seats have an adjustable
reclining feature along with the adaptive seat system, which senses the position
of the occupant in the seat and automatically adjusts the cushion for added
comfort. Rear seat passengers can enjoy their own premium sound system complete
with a 10-disc CD changer. Wood accents, rich blue leather and cloth complete
the executive interior.
An embroidered presidential seal is positioned in the center of the rear seat
back panel, as well as on each rear door trim panel. Presidential seals are also
affixed to the exterior rear doors. The U.S. flag is placed on the right front
fender, and the presidential standard is located on the left front fender when
the president travels in the vehicle. Flush-mounted High Intensity Discharged
(HID) spotlights illuminate the flags at night.
From its Cadillac-signature styling to its power and refined ride
characteristics, the DTS is a product of unwavering attention to detail which
builds on the strengths and appeal of the
Cadillac brand. The 2006 Cadillac DTS
production model is set to make its first public appearance at the Chicago Auto
Show in early February.
Expected to go on sale in the third quarter of 2005, the new Cadillac DTS marks
the ninth new vehicle introduced into the Cadillac portfolio since 2001 and
aligns with Cadillac's alpha naming strategy established by the CTS,
SRX, XLR
and STS vehicles. Evolving from three models - DeVille, DHS and DTS - with
exterior and interior differentiation, the DTS will incorporate a single-model
strategy with one exterior and various option packages.
The premier luxury division of General Motors Corp. (NYSE: GM), Cadillac
produces bold, standout vehicles such as the all-new STS performance sedan, the
XLR convertible roadster, the SRX midsize utility, and the CTS entry-level
sedan. In addition to selling the popular DeVille nameplate, Cadillac also
manufactures the world's most powerful line-up of SUVs, the Escalade, Escalade
ESV and Escalade EXT.
