Is the 2015 Cadillac ATS the Best Price for a Luxury Sedan?

November 1st, 2014 by

Chicagoland drivers have quite a few options at their disposal when it comes to luxury cars, and if you’re looking at the 2015 Cadillac ATS for its price tag, we have a suggestion for you: check out the 2015 Acura TLX. Available now at Chicagoland Acura Dealers, the new TLX replaces the old TSX and TL while managing to surpass them both in some of the most important areas of the luxury car world.

The TLX is truly one of the most impressive cars we’ve ever seen, and when it comes to price, it leaves the Cadillac wanting.

Let’s Start with the Price

Cadillac has a reputation in the luxury market, but with that reputation comes the luxury level pricing of the Cadillac brand. The 2015 Cadillac ATS is priced starting at $33,215, while the 2015 Acura TLX with four-cylinder and eight-speed dual-clutch transmission starts at $30,995 (MSRP).*

If price were the only thing separating these vehicles, Acura would already have a pretty solid lead, but there’s so much more. The TLX can help save money in the long run as well, offering drivers an EPA-estimated 35 highway mpg** on TLX models with the four-cylinder engine and eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Cadillac sits at 33 highway mpg.

Acura Gives Drivers Great Features

The features of the TLX set it even further apart from the Cadillac. Here are just a few of the amenities you’ll find standard on the Acura model that are either unavailable or require an upgrade on the Cadillac:

  • Paddle shifters
  • Power moonroof
  • Rearview camera
  • Front heated seating
  • LED headlights

Whether you want the fuel-efficient yet powerful four-cylinder TLX or the high-power V6 option, there’s no denying just how fun it is to get into the driver’s seat. Of course, if you haven’t seen the 2015 Acura TLX for yourself, you’ll want to visit a Chicagoland Acura Dealer near you for a test drive. We think you’ll agree that it’s one of the best vehicles in its class, regardless of price.
