Cadillac’s Two Hot New Models for 2013

Cadillac’s two big releases for 2013 – the XTS and the ATS – are both about one thing: the details. Every last inch of these new vehicles has been given that luxury touch for which Cadillac is so well-known. Plus, the new and advanced tech integrations in the all-new XTS and ATS make these vehicles stand out above the crowd when it comes to 2013 releases.

First up is the 2013 Cadillac XTS, the full-size sedan with front-wheel drive, 20-inch wheels and a 303-horsepower 3.6-liter gas direct-injection V-6. In addition to these great features, the new XTS also offers less obvious but just as delightful details, such as door handles that light up in the dark and magnetic ride shocks. This brand new vehicle will also feature one of the most buzzed-about technology offerings in the auto industry: the CUE (Cadillac User Experience) system. This new feature allows drivers to integrate their tablets and smart phones with their vehicle and includes an 8-inch screen which can be controlled by hand gestures and advanced voice control.

Then there’s the 2013 Cadillac ATS, a car which combines just as many great features into a compact luxury sedan. It also has a great 3.6-liter V-6, the almighty CUE system and plenty of other deluxe details, but the real draw is its comparison to the BMW 3 Series. Auto critics everywhere have confirmed that all the power, performance and pizzazz of the 3 Series can be found in the 2013 ATS for a significantly smaller price tag.

The Hyundai Genesis Tops Luxury Brands in a Dependability Study

In a recent Vehicle Dependability Study by J.D. Power and Associates, the Hyundai Genesis sedan was named the most dependable vehicle in its class. That means owners who have had the Genesis for at least three years experienced fewer problems with their vehicle than owners of other models. The award is a huge testament to the status of Hyundai, which has quickly grown to become one of the most popular automakers in the world.

First released in the 2009 model year, the Genesis is proving to be a highly reliable vehicle in the long term. For example, a 3-year-old Hyundai Genesis is rated as more dependable than a 3-year-old Mercedes E-Class or BMW 3 Series. When combined with Hyundai’s climb up the quality surveys in recent years, it’s easy to see why many smart buyers are choosing to spend wisely on a car that will outlast those that are flashier and significantly more expensive.

It’s also impressive that the Hyundai Genesis won its category in its first year of eligibility. However, when reflecting on the more than 20 top honors that the Genesis received from prominent media outlets upon its 2009 release, it shouldn’t come as a surprise.

We’re well-stocked with a variety of Hyundai vehicles at Parkway Motorcars, including the Hyundai Genesis, so stop in today. We’d love to answer any questions you may have. Please call us at 661.253.4441. View our entire Parkway Motorcars Inventory at http://www.goparkway.com/.
