March saw the first new Cadillac CT6 sold in the US, with 35 sneaking out. This will be a very exciting Cadillac.
Overall sales were down 5% compared to last year, but Escalade had a strong showing. SRX sales were surprisingly subdued, perhaps due to XT5 arriving soon.
At least one of these ATS sales was the new ATS-V in my garage, which is working out great.
