Car Advice<\/a> in Australia notes that Cadillac will begin sales of the current Cadillac CTS with next month’s Australian International Automobile Show. \u00a0 With a great direct injected variant of the familiar Holden Alloytech engine and Cadillac luxury appointments and performance tuning, the CTS should run well in Australia.<\/p>\n

The Australians like hot cars. \u00a0The CTS brings sharp acceleration, quick and precise handling, and a good top speed. \u00a0 \u00a0Hopefully if the CTS sells well then the new 556hp (415 kW) CTS-V will also be available soon.<\/p>\n

Holden in Melbourne helped mark GM’s 100th birthday<\/a> last week. \u00a0In 1926 General Motors Australia was formed which merged with Holden Motor Body Builders in 1931 to become General Motors-Holden\u2019s Limited (GMH). \u00a0Leading celebrations at Fishermans Bend, GM Holden Chairman and Managing Director, Mark Reuss, said Holden and Australia had played a key part in the development of General Motors.<\/p>\n

\u201cAustralians can feel a real sense of pride in the contribution this country has made to GM\u2019s 100 year history,\u201d Reuss said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBefore Holden Motor Body Builders merged with GM Australia back in 1931, the Holden name was already synonymous with building car bodies for General Motors brands such as Buick, Cadillac and Chevrolet.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat significant role in General Motors\u2019 worldwide operations continues today. The G8 sedan was designed, engineered and is built here in Australia for Pontiac and we led design and engineering for the new Chevrolet Camaro.<\/p>\n

Mark Reuss’<\/a>\u00a025 year stint with GM has seen him responsible for GM\u2019s production studios, Executive Director, Architecture Engineering and GM Performance Division, and Executive Director, North American Vehicle Systems and Architecture. \u00a0So Australia has a great point-man to bring in the best GM vehicles from around the world, like the Cadillac CTS. \u00a0 \u00a0And Holden has a good voice at the table as they continue to team within GM to produce increasingly exciting vehicles for the World market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
