Regarding this article: Wagon Ho! Cadillac Explores a New Trail | The Jacksonville Observer.<\/p>\n

I was wondering about Cadillac’s production volume expectations for the CTS Sedan vs CTS Sport Wagon vs CTS Coupe:<\/p>\n

But Cadillac says the wagon will be low volume, with sales reaching \u201cfour digits.\u201d Coupe sales will reach five. The sedan had sold nearly 32,000 through October.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So they may be hoping that the CTS Coupe sales will be near or half CTS Sedan sales, as were the Eldorado sales in relation to the Seville through the 90s.\u00a0 Although there will be some shared customers, I find that 2-door (Coupe) and 4-door (Sedan) customers are surprisingly different ‘factions’, especially on forums<\/a> like Caddyinfo.com<\/a>‘s.<\/p>\n

Also this note:<\/p>\n

Young or old, male or female, those who saw the wagon had an opinion. Thanks to CTS, all knew it was a Cadillac. Instant recognition, though friend and foe questioned why a wagon, since those bearing Mercedes and BMW labels are mostly invisible?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This reflects Cadillac’s success at defining their current brand very well.\u00a0 This is the goal, NOT that all the vehicles look THE SAME, but that any Automobile person would instantly recognize that this is a model of Cadillac.\u00a0 Good news.<\/p>\n
