The 2003 Cadillac DeVille, part of the ninth and final generation of DeVille, slots itself into a luxurious segment with notable refinement and sophistication. Powering the sedan is a Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) setup, paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. DeVille offers two engine choices: a 4.6L V8 producing 275 horsepower in base, DHS, and DTS trims, and a tweaked version producing 300 horsepower for the top-of-the-line DTS Performance. Standard features include OnStar telematics, keyless entry, and dual-zone automatic climate control. For entertainment, an AM/FM/CD audio system keeps occupants entertained. Safety-wise, the DeVille offers standard antilock brakes and front side airbags, while top tiers add stability control and, unique for the time, adaptive cruise control. Despite its age, the DeVille presents a blend of advanced technology, potent performance and classic Cadillac elegance.
