That story seems like a bit of click bait... Combining 2 vehicles into "1"  but adding another?  They are still going to have the 2 sedans below their full size model, just repositioned

There is no plan

And I put the probability of their sub CT5 RWD sedan making production at around zero. Sounds like they will take everything bad about the ATS (small back seat + cheap interior) and make it worse, to try to sell to people who are just going to want X1/Q3/NXs. de Nysschen still thinks its 1996

I figured the XTS had a future - it's the staple of bargain basement luxury fleets NYC wide.  They're everywhere here.  I guess that duty now goes to the CT6?

I feel like livery cars get driven until there is absolutely nothing left in them..... so if the ideal # of XTS cabs are in NYC there's no market for new ones.

That's an Omega car. (Granted, Omega = long and wide Alpha, but still)

It's impossible to argue with Raza. He wins. Period. End of discussion.

ATS sedan is dead

Moving to something sized between the ATS and CTS. What a novel idea
