The 2008 Cadillac STS debuts with a new, 302-horsepower engine with direct injection technology that improves fuel economy and reduces emissions. In addition, Cadillac's luxury performance sedan also showcases enhanced signature styling and the addition of leading-edge safety technology.

The new standard engine for STS delivers 302 horsepower at 6,300 rpm, 47 more horsepower than the previous 3.6-liter V-6. Torque is also increased to 272 lb.-ft. at 5,200 rpm. At the same time, the engine is expected to deliver improved fuel efficiency. (The 2007 STS had EPA fuel economy of 18 mpg city and 27 mpg highway).

For the first time, Cadillac's acclaimed StabiliTrak electronic stability control system now includes the optional addition of active steering technology. In addition to controlling brakes and reducing engine power, the latest iteration of StabiliTrak combines active front steering to turn the front wheels into the skid when rear wheels lose traction.

GM's Lane Departure Warning System also debuts on the 2008 STS. Controlled by a camera located in the rearview mirror that reads the lines in the road, the system will alert drivers when they have strayed into another lane. Drivers get both an audible and visual alert cue.
