The 2013 Cadillac ATS is a part of the first generation of this model, which marked Cadillac's entry into the compact luxury segment. This rear-wheel-drive sedan offers an optional all-wheel-drive system. Powering the ATS are three engine options, including a base 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 202 horsepower, a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 272 horsepower, and a 3.6-liter V6 with 321 horsepower. All are paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, though the 2.0-liter turbo offers an optional six-speed manual. Available in four trims—Standard, Luxury, Performance, and Premium—the ATS is well-equipped with key safety features such as eight airbags, stability control, and traction control; higher trims add blind-spot monitoring and forward collision alert. The car's infotainment system includes Bluetooth and a 7-inch touchscreen, with options for navigation and a 10-speaker Bose system.
