A bit about Cadillac

The Cadillac Motor Car Division is a branch of the American auto manufacturer General Motors (GM).

The Cadillac brand began as part of the Henry Ford Company in Detroit, Michigan in 1902. After a dispute about production, Henry Ford and several of his investors, abandoned the company. However, after appraising the company’s assets ahead of liquidation, engineer and former investor Henry M. Leland decided to continue the company, renaming it the Cadillac Automobile Company after the French explorer Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, sieur de Cadillac, who had founded Detroit in 1701. The Cadillac badge is based on his coat of arms.

Cadillacs are currently distributed in 34 markets worldwide and are the top luxury vehicle brand within the United States. In 2019, more than 390,000 Cadillacs were sold worldwide, a record for the company.

Cadillac was already established as the U.S.’s premier luxury car marque when it was purchased by GM in 1909. Cadillac’s company slogan: ‘The Standard of the World’ is a reference to its engineering. Henry M. Leland was so concerned with precision in Cadillacs that he brought in special tools from Sweden used in clock building.

Cadillac was the first American car to win the Dewar Trophy, presented by the British Royal Automobile Club (RAC), for successfully demonstrating the complete interchangeability of its component parts, which later lay the foundation of modern automobile mass production. Cadillac won the trophy for a second time in 1912 for being the first production automobile that incorporated electric starting and lighting. Before Cadillac's innovative electric starting technology, all automobiles needed to be started by turning a crank handle.

Cadillac’s 5.1L (70 horsepower) engine was the first mass-produced V8. It was also the first engine to feature a coolant reservoir – which made it much more reliable. As a direct consequence, the US Government bought thousands of Cadillacs for the use of army officers during World War I.

The Cadillac Motor Car Division was also the first company to produce cars with air conditioning, and the 1922 Type 59c Cadillac featured innovative self-powered air compressors in their tyres, meaning that they could fill up automatically.

For Cadillac’s 110th anniversary, American magazine Popular Mechanics picked the five greatest Cadillacs of all time. The models they chose were the 1908 Cadillac, the 1953 Eldorado, the 1948 Series 62 Club Coupe, the 1967-1970 Eldorado Coupe, and the 2009-current CTS-V. They also named the 1930-1940 V-16 Series 452 and Series 90 as ‘the greatest car on Earth.’

Mafia boss Al Capone’s bulletproof 1928 Cadillac sedan was requisitioned by the US Secret Service as the Presidential vehicle following the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941. The car had been impounded by the government when Capone was sent to Alcatraz prison. Franklin D. Roosevelt used Capone’s modified Cadillac as his official car for the rest of his tenure as President.

The 1957 Eldorado Brougham came equipped with memory-power seats, automatic locks, and low-profile tyres on aluminium wheels. Not typically added ‘as standard’ in modern cars, it also came with a built-in make-up kit and magnetic whiskey glasses.
