Cadillac‘s plan to revitalize its sales and image appears to have actually hit a snag, preparation for a Cadillac CT8 to take on the Mercedes S-Class have now been formally cancelled.
The CT8 would have been a bigger, more luxurious offering at the lead of the Cadillac lineup, sitting above the all brand-new CT6, and in our more optimistic dreams, echoing the excellent styling of the Elmiraj concept from 2013. The full-size luxury four-door was a section that Cadillac when specified, however it seems times have changed, with big-dollar buyers choosing suvs and crossovers to standard sedans-a pattern Cadillac has actually long taken advantage of with the hugely successful Escalade.
