Cadillac January Sales were down 13.2%, with every Cadillac sedan off its pace of a year ago.\u00a0 Only the Cadillac SRX held up its sales, at 4,446 out the door to happy new owners.\u00a0 In fact Cadillac notes this as the best January EVER for SRX sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

January is historically the low month for auto sales — after the end of the year clearances, before annual bonuses or IRS returns are available.<\/p>\n

The ELR sold another 41 units in January, so with the 6 that sold in Dec that brings sales of the new extended range electric Cadillac to 47, ahead of the discontinued Escalade EXT.<\/p>\n

Cadillac ATS sales continue to be much below target and competitors — a shame because the ATS is such a terrific model.\u00a0 Cadillac has to find the right way to market this athletic sports sedan, or as I have been suggesting bring some serious improvements in the value proposition for the ATS.<\/p>\n
