Cadillac ATS built on Alpha RWD/AWD platform, looks like a smaller, evolved CTS, 2nd gen. CTS already in development, looks to be on stretched Alpha platform.

Seems like a V6, FWD sedan would have weird proportions being based on a RWD, V16 design.
Also, I remember reading in Motor Trend a while back that the Alpha Cadillac was specifically planned to not mimic CTS styling, because that made making a coupe and droptop difficult. I guess the coupe then will borrow the CTS-coupe's extreme fastback design, but a convertible is probably out of the question then.
And don't you mean 3rd gen CTS? And this is the first I've heard of it moving off Sigma. Is that platform going to be killed off then? Shame, since it seems like a good platform. I still don't understand why they didn't put the XTS on it.
