Cadillac

Cadillac is a luxury brand owned by General Motors and one of four remaining core brands after the automaker emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July 2009. Founded in 1902 and bought by GM in 1909, Cadillac became the premier luxury vehicle marque in the U.S. during the mid-20th century. After losing that distinction from intense competition from foreign competitors and a number of unpopular models, the brand was reinvented around 2003 with Art and Science design.
