 REVIEWS / NEWS

For 2004 2005 Cadillac has two Seville models; a 300-hp 4.6-liter Northstar engine Seville STS and a 275 hp 305 ft-lbs torque in the Cadillac Seville SLS. The automatic transmission in 2004 2005 Seville STS will shift automatically and adapt to the way you drive.

2004 2005 and 04 Cadillac Seville STS offers luxury and the handling of a sport sedan. The new Seville's are equipped with Cadillac' Magnetic Ride Control (MRC) claiming to be the world's quickest reacting suspension system (standard on the Seville STS), providing a wide range of damping force control and responsiveness. This new technology enables continuous real time damping control and will increase control of vehicle motions for a flatter ride and better handling. This new enhancement to the Cadillac Seville enhances wheel control for a more secure ride by controlling load transfer characteristics improved roll control and steering during unexpected high-speed maneuvers.

The new 2004 2005 and 03 Cadillac Seville is equipped with Cadillac's Performance Algorithm Shifting or PAS, this uses vehicle sensors, including the lateral acceleration sensor to evaluate your driving actions and then evaluates reprograms the transmission to respond much like a manual gearbox. During a maneuver such as "hard turn" the transmission will hold its gear to prevent mid-corner shifts that can upset the balancing of the vehicle. When braking the Seville through a corner the transmission will change down for better cornering speeds and maintain the gear selection through acceleration out of the turn.

The 2004 2005 Cadillac Seville STS and SLS have an available onboard DVD-based Navigation system GPS (global positioning satellite) with bright and clear graphics which are conveniently displayed on the instrument panel. Controls for the Seville's sound system are integrated into a 6.5-inch diagonal touch screen. The sound system is a premium Bose® 6 disc CD changer. I found the touch screen to be very user-friendly and the screen features a light gray background in daylight that automatically switches to a dark black background at night. There are 5 dedicated controls along the left side to control the navigation system and 4 switches to the right to operate the sound system. The entertainment system will allow you to view a DVD Video but only when you are parked.
