True. That is exactly the market for it









The DTS actually sold good for a Full size luxury car, I guess that's why Caddy wanted a replacement. The DTS sold 11,589 in 2011.

Some other full size Luxury cars sale from 2011
Acura RL-1,096
Audi A8-5,700
BMW 7-series-11,299
Hyundai Equus-3,193
Jaguar XJ-5,235
Lexus LS-9,568
Mercedes S-Class-12,258
Porsche Panamera-6,879

Of course, by no means, am I comparing the XTS to all of these. I merely just listed the full size luxury cars from the different companies and what they sold last year. So if the XTS can outsell the previous DTS then it will do good.

Isn't XTS standard AWD...?

Transverse engine, yes....but why all the comments about FWD? It's not...


EDIT: Nevermind...it's not standard - my mistake.
