The nod goes to Cadillac - 2016 Cadillac ATS
By Walt - October 11 - 8:51 pmI traded in a BMW 320 for the Cadillac ATS all wheel drive. The BMW is the segment leader and has been for many years for a good reason BUT, the Cadillac is better. It is more comfortable, much quieter, quicker and a pure joy to drive. It doesnt sound as sporty or feel as sporty, but it is overall an excellent car. It is, after all, a Cadillac. After 22,000 miles I still feel the same about the ATS, it’s a great car.

Best handling, best balanced, most agile sedan - 2016 Cadillac ATS
By Dave HACKETT - June 6 - 11:08 amThis 4 door sedan handles better than any comparable sedan Ive driven in years. It is nimble, well balanced, has precise, accurate steering; it is a joy to drive.

Had a CTS and now driving an ATS - 2016 Cadillac ATS
By Matt Spencer - January 8 - 8:04 amBiggest downside, car is its a large compact. After that watch out it is a fun drive. Great cornering and excellent acceleration provide an excellent feel behind the wheel. The car is 5 star safety in every category making the overall experience that much better. Had previous experience with 2.0 turbo and it was problem free although I only drove it for 50k miles. If you are not looking for a large sedan this could be your car. Drive it and you will like it.

An overlooked gem of a car - 2016 Cadillac ATS
By Clark - October 17 - 4:41 pm2016 Cadillac ATS 2.0 turbo luxury AWD trim is a great handling car. As many others have mentioned already, the vehicle is slick, drives extremely well, handles confidently, and overall a great driving car. When the sport mode is selected, the wheel and suspension gets noticeably tightened and gear changes at higher RPMs to allow for a quicker acceleration, which all makes it a very nice sporty experience. One feature I do not like is that the luxury trim does not have the HID lights (higher trims do have it). Halogen lights does the job, but it is nowhere near the brightness of HID. Backseat is cramped, but for small to normal sized people, it isnt uncomfortable. If ATS makes HID standard and add a couple more inches to the backseat legroom, in my mind, it would clearly beat BMW 3 series. Until then, it is so close, yet so far from the 3 series benchmark. At the same time, when Im in the car by myself driving in sport mode on the highway, these couple of minor inconveniences are an afterthought. At 272 hp and 295 lb-sqft, the 2.0 turbo is the real steal among the trim offerings in my opinion. If you are looking for an entry level luxury sport sedan, I highly recommend you test drive the ATS 2.0 turbo and test out the acceleration and handling. You wont be disappointed.

Fun 2.5L standard Caddy - 2016 Cadillac ATS
By Red - February 3 - 1:12 amHandling is excellent and makes this car fun to drive. Using the new 8 speed transmission in manual mode makes it easy to keep the 2.5L within its power band. The engine has 202HP (naturally aspirated) with no extra turbo parts to worry about. I prefer long term reliability rather than a quick 0-60 time. Also, this car is rear wheel drive with a longitudinal engine and a 50/50 balanced weight ratio, that is hard to find these days in a 4 door sedan.

The new handling benchmark for its class! - 2016 Cadillac ATS
By John - January 8 - 1:21 amGreat handling car. Easy to see out of when driving. We have the base four cylinder so its a little rough on starting but in line with other cars in its class. Easy to park and when driving quite fun to drive.
