By 1955, the car line had proven itself and was allotted a special
270 horsepower engine, higher than the 250 offered in other
Cadillacs that year. The 1955 Cadillac line may have resembled the
1953 and 1954 cars, but the Eldorado specifically gained longer,
taller tailfins not shared with any other Cadillac that year. Sales
increased to 3,950, and the price increased slightly to $6,286.
1956 cars included a new Eldorado Seville two-door hardtop coupe,
which nearly outsold the convertible two-to-one. Once again, a
special 305 horsepower was fitted to the Eldorados, whereas other
Cadillacs had to make do with 285 hp.
