What is the Cadillac ATS?

The Cadillac ATS is a compact premium car that brought a smaller model to the brand’s range. Sold as a sedan and coupe, it carried Cadillac’s angular Art and Science design into a more compact format. The ATS introduced GM’s Alpha platform, which Cadillac also used for the third-generation CTS.

The ATS had one generation, running from 2013 to 2019. Its range included the ATS-V performance models alongside four-cylinder and V6 options, giving the compact Cadillac both everyday and high-performance versions.

Engines and power

Across the listed markets, the ATS used petrol engines from 2.0 L to 3.6 L. EU figures record power from 203 kW (276 PS) to 346 kW (470 PS), while the France listing shows 203 kW (276 PS). US and Canadian listings also include flex-fuel E85 versions.

How economical is the Cadillac ATS?

UK and France figures use NEDC, with lowest listed results of 7.6 L/100 km and 8.2 L/100 km respectively. In the US, the EPA low is 9 L/100 km, with a best combined rating of 26 MPG. Canada’s lowest figure is also 9 L/100 km, measured under NRCan 5-cycle testing. NEDC, EPA and Canada’s 5-cycle procedure differ, so these market results are best understood on their own terms.
