BRX/BTX/Provoq production interior spied
April 30, 2008 - 11:05 amThe good folks at LLN have spotted, via handy telephoto lense, some of the interior of the Theta Premium-based crossover that we’ve all be calling the BRX/BTX (latest I’ve seen in the name guessing game for this model is CTX)...
Now, we have an idea of the CTS-inspired dash that will make it into production (if you go back to our Provoq concept photos, you’ll see that this looks like exactly the dash from the concept – right down to the single, round center gauge pod.

CTS Wagon spied!
April 25, 2008 - 1:50 pmUpdate: More spy shots including the interior of the new wagon over at Leftlane News (link below)
The good folks over at Autoblog have managed to snag some spy shots of the upcoming CTS wagon.
Apparent from these are the sporty rear window and basic proportions that will make the new CTS wagon (CTW?) as stylish as the sedan and coupe the preceeded it.
Expect this to hit the roads mid-2009 as a 2010.

BTX shows its grill
April 19, 2008 - 12:30 pmLeftlane News has spotted Cadillac’s new small SUV flashing its grill-work and showing a lot of similarities to the Provoq concept from this years Detroit auto show.
Built off GM’s Premium Theta (which, according to LLN, is packing some parts from GM’s Epsilon mid-size car chassis as well), the BRX (we hear it will be BTX) will share this high-end version of Theta with Saab’s new 9-4x crossover.
Both should reach production late in 2009 as 2010 model year vehicles.

XLR-V spotted, this time undisguised
April 19, 2008 - 7:23 amDo you get the feeling the XLR development team isn’t trying that hard?
Earlier, we brought you pictures from LLN showing the standard XLR sporting its new CTS-inspired face, dual exhaust tips, and Jaguar-esque fender vents…
Today, LLN has snagged undisguised pics of the XLR-V. This time with the V-Series mesh grills.
Of note, the hood bulge seems to have been lowered and the exhaust tips are either blacked-out or are not in final production form on this test car.
No interior shots, unfortunately, and still no word on powertrains.
With this amount of sloppiness on Cadillacs part with regard to protecting what these cars will look like – I wouldn’t be surprised if an official debut is days away.

2009 XLR spotted sans camo
April 18, 2008 - 2:45 pmWell, we knew that Cadillac was working on some changes for the 2009 XLR, now we can see them in these undisguised mules.
Exterior changes are fairly minor with new integrated exhaust tips inspired by the upcoming CTS Coupe, fender vents seemingly owing more the Jaguar than the 2008 CTS/STS designs, and freshened front styling that brings the CTS grill design to the flagship.
Unknowns still include the interior and powertrain options we’ll see when the 09 XLR debuts later this year.
