The all-new ATS connects you to some of the most
advanced safety innovations available on a compact
luxury sport sedan. Using strategically placed cameras,
short-, mid- and long-range radar technology, and
numerous other sensors, the ATS is ever-vigilant. The
available Driver Awareness Package includes the Safety
Alert Seat that pulses, giving you instant, tactile feedback
to alert you of select dangers on the road; Forward
Collision Alert; Lane Departure Warning; and RainSense
windshield wipers. Going a step further, the available
Driver Assist Package adds Front and Rear Automatic
Braking, which works in concert with other advanced
safety systems to apply the brakes and help avoid certain
low-speed collisions; Side Blind Zone Alert
Traffic Alert; a full-color Head-Up Display that projects
customizable key driving, entertainment and safety
features at eye level; and Adaptive Cruise Control
maintains your selected speed and a preset distance
between you and the vehicle in front. This new high-tech
approach to safety is yet another example of Cadillac
leading you confidently down the road ahead.
