2013 Cadillac XTS Gets a Slew of Livery Models

The 2013 XTS has just recently arrived in showrooms, but already Cadillac is eager to crank out exciting new variants of its flagship sedan. These new models include a livery sedan, limousine, and even a hearse.

 
General Motors will be building the livery sedan entirely on its own and it will feature  air-leveling rear suspension, heated rear seats, both side and rear window shades, and  tri-zone climate control. The sedan will be the obvious choice for luxury chauffeured business travel. Standard features on the XTS Livery Sedan inlcude:

 300 hp, 17 mpg/city, 28 mpg/hwy
 Cadillac User Experience (CUE) infotainment and entertainment system
 Magnetic Ride Control suspension
 Air-leveling rear suspension
 Improved turning circle over former Cadillac livery sedan
 HID headlamps
 19-in. polished alloy wheels
 Push-button start
 Passive entry
 Remote start
 Transmission oil cooler
 Brembo brakes
 Illuminated door handles
 Premium microfiber suede headliner
 Three-passenger rear seating (56.3-in. shoulder room, 54.3-in. hip room, 40-in. legroom)
 Rear center console
 Capless fuel tank filler
 Rear vision camera and obstacle detection
 18 cubic feet of trunk space
 3-year/150,000-mile Professional Vehicle Protection Plan extended warranty2
 4-year/50,000-mile Premium Care Maintenance Plan2
 One year OnStar service
 
The limo and hearse are co-developed with selected aftermarket companies, which perform the work based on GM direction and specs. Features for these two models were not exposed in detail by GM. However, Cadillac spokesperson David Caldwell did say that he vehicles will be built by only a small group of authorized companies to ensure quality.

 
With the all-new XTS, Cadillac is clearly looking to dethrone the Lincoln Town Car, which has long been the market leader in the livery market. As such, the XTS livery is more than just a black stock XTS says Caldwell. “[Cadillac] is offering the Livery Package with a bit more luxury inside than standard XTS models… which honestly will limit the volume quite a bit, but is the right approach for how we wish to present the brand.”
