DETROIT – Car and Driver editors today named the Chevrolet Volt and the Cadillac CTS to their annual 10Best list. General Motors was the only American automaker to earn two spots on the prestigious list.
Said Car and Driver editors in the magazine’s January 2011 issue:
Of the Volt:
“To put it simply, the Volt was far and away the biggest surprise to every editor at this year’s 10Best event. None of us imagined that nestling into the glass cockpit would bring the words ‘automotive bliss’ and ‘electric vehicle’ together in the same sentence.
Of the CTS:
“In forsaking the mainstream CTSs, we are saying yes to psychedelic power, yes to organ-shifting g-forces, yes to the great, mind-expanding duality of Cadillacs that make the 0-to-60 sprint about as fast as a Ferrari 599…. These are hard-core performance cars, but they are also Cadillacs, with all of the seamlessness, refinement, and content that implies.”
