Cadillac vehicle

Cadillac is a premier luxury vehicle brand that stands as one of the oldest automobile marques in the world. It was founded in Detroit, Michigan, in 1902 by Henry Leland and a group of investors from the remains of the Henry Ford Company. The brand was named after Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac, the founder of Detroit, and was positioned from its inception as a symbol of American engineering excellence and luxury.

General Motors (GM) acquired Cadillac in 1909, integrating it as their flagship luxury division. Throughout the 20th century, the brand became synonymous with innovation, introducing the first mass-produced V8 engine and pioneering early electrical systems in cars. Today, Cadillac continues to lead GM's technological pursuits, particularly in the realm of electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous driving technology.

While manufacturing is deeply rooted in Michigan and Tennessee in the United States, Cadillac has established a massive global footprint. It maintains significant assembly facilities in China to serve the Asian market, and certain components or models are assembled in Canada and Mexico. The brand is currently undergoing a major transition to become an all-electric luxury brand by 2030, with high-profile models like the Lyriq and Escalade IQ leading the charge.
