Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon
Cadillac has brought out a stylish estate version of its CTS sports saloon that will be available in the UK showrooms late next year.

The CTS Sport Wagon is 7mm shorter than the CTS saloon but still extends more load space than its main rival, the Volvo V70.
The CTS Sport Wagon is anticipated to be obtainable with the saloon’s 208bhp 2.8-liter and the muscular 307bhp 3.6-liter petrol V6s, as well as the forthcoming 247bhp 2.9-liter diesel.

With a power tailgate that can be functioned with the key fob, the Sport Wagon also offers a panoramic rear sunroof. At the rear are aggressive-looking tail-lamps that hint at the tail fins of 1950’s Cadillacs.

Pricing will be proclaimed closer to the on-sale date in the autumn.
