5 Doors of Glory – 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon
Let’s face it – station wagons haven’t been cool since the Griswold’s took a Wagon Queen Family Truckster halfway across America to get the kids to Wally World. But with the 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon, your grandpa’s wagon may be hip again. For a company like Caddy, who is on the lookout for a fresh & young audience, choosing station wagon variants of their sexy CTS sedan & Coupe may not seem like a wise decision – but we disagree. SUV’s are out – and people still need legroom, you are getting a little older there, Mr. Dave Mathew’s fan. American’s want space, but now they want a decent MPG rating and to not worry their Firestone tires are gonna pop, causing you to flip over. Station wagons have become the obvious choice.
So what DOES Caddy’s CTS Wagon have for us? Their base 3.0-liter V6 produces a powerful 270 horse power, or 304 HP with a direct injection 3.6-liter V6 option. Miles Per Gallon tests returned 18/27 ratings. Another cool option is GM’s traction control, which can be switched or off, depending on how empty that rainy parking lot is.
2010’s CTS Wagon comes with plenty of room. 58 cubic feet of storage in it’s behind with the seats down. A backup camera and proximity sensors help in those hard to see places when in reverse.
Production on CTS Sport Wagon began on Monday, and soon you too will be able to head down Turn Pike roads after paying the $40,485 sticker, starting price of course.
