2014 Cadillac ATS Crimson Sport Edition

Cadillac has announced the arrival of the Crimson Sport Edition, a special version of its ATS compact four-door saloon.

With that name it’s unsurprising that the only body finish available is a fetching shade called Crimson Red Metallic. The paintwork is complemented by a full body kit, a rear spoiler and 18” dark silver ‘Manoogian’ wheels.

On the inside, the extra specification comprises heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and a micro-fibre suede covering for both the steering wheel and gearshift lever. Buyers have a choice of Jet Black, Caramel, Light Platinum or Morello Red cabin colour schemes, all of which come with black trim accents.

In the United States, the ATS Crimson Sport Edition costs from $46,010 when based on the Performance Collection model with its 272 bhp (203 kW / 276 PS) 2.0 litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine.

Alternatively, a 321 bhp (239 kW / 325 PS) normally-aspirated 3.6 litre V6 powers the Premium Collection variant. In this guise either rear- or all-wheel drive can be specified and prices start at $51,010.

Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
