BROCHURE QUOTES

Fleetwood and Fleetwood Brougham

The Fleetwoods create a higher standard of uncompromised substance in full-size luxury automobiles. They provide additional protection for up to three front seat passengers with dual air bags. A new 260-hp, 5.7 litre V8 linked to an electronically controlled transmission results in even more responsive acceleration.

In turn, the 1994 Cadillac Fleetwood rewards you with a new 5.7 litre V8 that generates 260 horsepower and, with 335 lb.-ft. of torque, produces prodigious highway passing and the ability to tow large trailers and boats.

The Fleetwood Brougham creates a higher standard of uncompromised strength and substance in a full-size luxury automobile. New for 1994: a specially tuned, second-generation 5.7 litre V8 enhanced by full-range Traction Control, assures responsive acceleration when you need to pass or merge. Its six-passenger roominess is unparalleled in service of your comfort. It is, in fact the roomiest car you can buy. Fleetwood or Fleetwood Brougham also enjoy a deserved reputation as one of the safest automobiles you can drive, exceeding 1997 model U.S. Federal dynamic side-impact safety standards, and providing additional protection for up to three front seat passengers with dual air bags.

While retaining classic Cadillac elegance and style, the 1994 Fleetwood goes to great lengths to provide the qualities you desire most in a luxury automobile. Fleetwood's expansive six-passenger cabin is unequalled among its competitors.

The unsurpassed functionality of Fleetwood Brougham's instrument panel extends to meet your fingertips in the form of the new four-spoke steering wheel, highly legible readouts that are easy on your eyes, and accessible controls that inform at a glance.

Cadillac's patented split-frame design allows you to adjust front seatbacks and seat cushions independently for superior back support. A new defog feature allows the windshield to be cleared in cold and inclement weather, while maintaining heat flow to the lower portion of the cabin. And the quiet you notice is the result of our engineers having applied the most advanced acoustic techniques to digitally locate "noise spots," thereby making it easier to minimize their intrusion. Fleetwood's smooth engine, aerodynamic design, and generous amounts of soundproofing also add to the hush.
