DeVille, long a classic among luxury automobiles, continues to offer an unmatched combination of elegant style, full-size six-passenger comfort, and leading-edge safety. For 1995, a re-engineered and relocated exhaust system and enhancements to the car's body structure helped quell interior sound adding to DeVille's vault-like solidity.

Year after year, more people choose DeVille than any other luxury car. And with DeVille's inimitable style, the authority of a 200-horsepower V8 engine and the confidence of anti-lock brakes and standard Traction Control, it's easy to see why.

With the largest interior of any front-wheel drive car, DeVille is the definition of full-size luxury. And with a front-seat Airbank System providing air-bag protection for all three front passengers, DeVille is also a leader in safety. Ergonomics and information displays are unsurpassed for their "user-friendly" design. In fact, DeVille ranks with the best in the world in terms of positive human factors.

To the room and grace of DeVille, Concours adds the advanced Northstar System, with full-range Traction Control, a Road-Sensing Suspension and a supremely capable 275-hp Northstar V8. Inside, Concours features power-adjustable heated front seats with leather seating areas and a superb Active Audio stereo system. The result? Concours carries six passengers through the most difficult handling situations in sumptuous luxury, with poise to spare.
