Few automobiles are fortunate enough to have the rich
heritage
that is Cadillac, The name Cadillac is appropriately
that
of Antoine de La Mothe Cadillac, the French military
commander who founded the city of Detroit in
170 1, What
better name for the oldest automobile manufacturer in Detroit.
Henry M. Leland, known as the
master of precision, initiated his pre-
cision manufacturing techniques at
the founding of Cadillac
in
1902. His exacting
standards prompted the
motto
by which Cadillac
has been guided over the
years
- “Craftsmanship

Law! The introduction of
the first four cylinder en-
gine in
1905 led the industry and
enabled Cadillacs to travel at speeds
up to
50 mph.

novation, the Royal Automobile

Cadillac is the only
American manufacturer
b to win this honor and the
only manufacturer in the world to win
it twice. As commonplace as stan-
dardized parts are today, in
1908 parts
were still individually hand fitted
both in production and service.

Standardization opened the eyes of
the industrial world and was the cor-
ner-stone
of modern U
production. From this achievement
evolved the reference to Cadillac as
“Standard
of the World:
In
1909 Cadillac was purchased
by the then new General Motors
Corporation. Convenience, clean-
liness and all-weather comfort were
greatly enhanced in
1910 when Cad-
illac became the first manufacturer
to offer closed bodies as standard
equipment.
“The Penalty of Leadership”
first appeared in the January
2, 1915
issue of The Saturday Evening Post
as an expression of the Cadillac com-
mitment to leadership, quality, and
innovation. It is widely regarded as
one
of the finest documents ever
written and was published following
the introduction of the first produc-
tion
V8 engine. The V8 was stan-
dard in all
1915 model Cadillacs.
Many Cadillac “firsts” have fol-
lowed over the years, including the
synchro-mech clashless transmis-
sion, a nation-wide comprehensive

During World War

after Pearl Harbor, Cadillac discon-
tinued car production for the first
time since
1902 in order to construct
light tanks, combat vehicles and
internal parts for Allison
V1710 en-
gines. Two Cadillac
V8 engines and
Hydra-Matic transmissions were
used in each tank.

For the 1948 model, Cadillac
introduced the legendary
tail fin
which set the trend in automotive
styling for nearly two decades. This
was followed
by the 1949 model with
the two door hardtop Coupe DeVille
and the modern overhead valve,
high compression
V8 engine.

Engineering innovations, con-
veniences and styling dominated the
'50s and '60s. Cruise control, auto-
matic climate control,
tilt and
telescoping steering wheels, twilight
sentinel and four door hard tops all
debuted in these years. In
1957 the
Eldorado Brougham featured ad-
vances such as air suspension, mem-
ory seat, automatic electric
door
locks, transistor radio, a brushed stainless steel roof
and low profile
tires.

A 1993 Cadillac AllantC in stock
technical configuration, was selected
as the pace car for the
76th Indianap-
olis
500. The demanding pace car
performance and handling require-
ments were met because
of such
advanced systems as the
32 valve,
dual overhead camshaft, Northstar
4.6 liter V8 engine, 4t80 E electroni-
cally controlled automatic transaxle,
road sensing suspension, speed sen-
sitive steering, antilock brakes and
traction control.
This
rich tradition continues
into the
'90s as Cadillac became the
first automobile manufacturer to be
awarded the prestigious Malcolm
Baldrige National Quality Award.
The
1992 Seville STS is the first
car ever to
win all three major auto-
motive awards: Car of the Year,
Motor Trend; Ten Best List, Car
&a
Driver; Car of the Year, Automobile
Magazine.
For more than nine decades
Cadillac has been a leader
in quality
and technical innovation. Now more
than ever, substance takes shape
