1995 CADILLAC SEVILLE

The Seville series again consisted of the luxury sedan (SLS) and touring sedan (STS).
Both again used the Northstar 4.6-liter V-8 and 4T80-E electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission with viscous converter clutch.
Engine, chassis and interior upgrades/refinements for the SLS basically mirrored the Eldorado coupe while the STS's mimicked the ETC.

Seville STS has drawn praise for both its style and performance from discerning automobile enthusiasts in many corners of the globe. And whether Seville is challenged by the Trans Canada Highway or by a European autobahn, its renowned Northstar System lends a special measure of response to this sophisticated and potent sports sedan. Clearly, Seville STS is an automobile for those who are not easily impressed. And an automobile designed, not to follow, but to lead.

Visually, STS is a unique statement of strength and civility. At first glance, its appearance is akin to a fine, custom-tailored suit, impeccable in both styling and craftsmanship. A longer second look reveals specific cast-aluminum wheels, purposeful speed-rated blackwall tires and a very restrained use of chrome, all of which speak of this sedan's powerful performance. And for 1995, new waterborne paint technology provides an even more lustrous finish.

The Seville STS driving environment represents a mastery of technology and craftsmanship unlike any other high-performance touring sedan. Classic touches like supple Nuance leather and genuine Zebrano wood trim blend seamlessly with STS's leading-edge electronics. The result: an interior designed to meet the needs of the most serious driver, and equipped for unsurpassed luxury.

In Seville SLS, Cadillac's exclusive Northstar System is specifically tuned for instant urban response, easy manoeuvrability and a luxurious ride on the open highway. Inside the cabin -- trimmed in Nuance leather seating areas and Zebrano wood -- a digital instrument cluster relays precise information to the driver. And of course, dual front air bags offer peace of mind for both driver and front seat passenger.
