Spied: 2013 Cadillac ATS Interior

2013 Cadillac ATS Interior Photo Caught in Germany

The 2013 Cadillac ATS was caught with less camouflage on the Nurburgring and it was more or less what one would expect: a smaller version of the CTS with likely a few stylistic advances here or there.

As these new spy photos of the ATS interior show, however, there's a more radical situation afoot inside. The general look seems to be in keeping with the current Cadillac design aesthetic, but note the massively different control interface. For starters, the touchscreen (presumably) is absolutely enormous. The "buttons" below could possibly be Volt-style touch buttons or they could be real buttons disguised as Cadillac-style V-shaped thingies. Either way, it's far different from the mess of buttons that currently resides on the CTS dash.

Spied my arse, this "leak" was intentional, but nice interior though. I like the steering wheel.

Similar, but not the same. Notice how it's been "Caddified" with the curvature at the top, and the "V" angle down low.

They look similar to me too, the ATS one is just fancier looking. I hate the new Camaro one. It does not match the styling of the interior at all.

I think it looks fine, IMO it is that damn radio and HVAC stack that looks atrocious.

The center stack and HVAC look similar to what the '13 SRX is supposed to get. Very beautiful!
