2013 Cadillac ATS Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
Year	Comment
	The latest 3-Series has a roomy, comfortable back seat. Cadillac didn't see this coming, and sized the ATS to compete with the previous-generation BMW. Consequently, the Cadillac's rear seat is considerably tighter than the BMW's or the Infiniti G37's, a little tighter than an A4's, about even with that in a C-Class, and roomier than that in a Lexus IS. If you want adults to be comfortable in back, the ATS isn't your car, but neither are most of the cars it competes with. see full Cadillac ATS review

2013 Cadillac ATS Powertrain: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2014	4dr Sedan turbocharged 272hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	There are 3 choices of engine in the ATS: a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder base engine, a 2 liter turbo and the familiar GM 3.6 V6. The base 2.5 makes for leisurely progress and is harsh at higher revs but if you think that a Lexus IS250 is fast enough then this might be the engine for you. Next is the DI 2 liter turbo with 270 horse power and flat torque curve that makes for acceleration to 60 in about 6 seconds. Power delivery is excellent, particularly at low RPM. For most folks this is the engine they want as it delivers class competitive performance but doesn't weigh down the front of the car. GMs well proven HF 3.6 is the top engine choice with 321 ponies and a throaty exhaust note that is sorely missing from the 2.0T. As a bonus it does not require premium gas so it will most likely not cost more at the pump than the 2.0T. The only drawback is that the heavier V6 weighs down the front on of the car making it less nimble in the turns. see full Cadillac ATS review

2014	4dr Sedan turbocharged 272hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	While all of the engine choices perform well none is a fuel economy leader. Both BMW and Audi lead the ATS by about 4 MPG both city and highway. see full Cadillac ATS review
