Vehicle Description
The front-wheel drive DTS was manufactured at GM's
Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly factory from July 2005 through May
2011.4 #fn4 Base price of the entry DTS at time of introduction was
US$41,195 ($52,847 in current dollars) which was over 10% lower
than the DeVille model it had replaced. One major feature change
from the DeVille to the DTS was the elimination of standard
6-passenger seating configuration for non-limousine models.
However, such capability remains an optional feature for fleet
clients.5 #fn5 Even though priced less than the rear-wheel drive
STS, the DTS is longer than the STS.
The DTS has standard industry features including multiple airbags,
bi-functional xenon high-intensity discharge HID headlamps, leather
seating, and power seats. Options include navigation system,
Magnetic Ride Control (magnetic ride control on performance models
only), moonroof, chrome wheels, heated/cooled seats, and a heated
steering wheel. A new DTS Platinum edition was released in 2007
with special interior trim, badging, and other luxury
amenities.
The DTS incorporates the updated GM G-platform (GM chose to
continue referring to it as the K platform,1 #fn1 as denoted by the
4th letter in the VIN), and is powered by a transverse6 #fn6 32V
Northstar V8, which produces 275 bhp (205 kW) in "Standard",
"Luxury" and "Premium" trims. The DTS Platinum is equipped with 292
bhp (218 kW) version.3 #fn3 GM phased out all GM fender badges from
vehicles during the 2010 model year, including those on the
Cadillac DTS.7 #fn7
