AAH #213 – How Cadillac’s Making its Cars Lighter than BMW

Is the golden age of horsepower nearly at an end with new fuel
economy standards on the horizon? Not if Dave Leone, Executive
Chief Engineer of GM Performance Luxury Vehicles, has anything to
say about it. Mr. Leone will be stopping by the studio with a new
Cadillac CTS in tow, and we’ll be pressing him for all the
fuel-saving secrets used in engineering the new sedan. Plus, we’ll
be getting into some hot topics of the moment. Have you seen “Rush”
yet? John McElroy has, and we’ll get his impressions. And, we’ll
apply some analysis to September sales results. All that and much
more as John is joined by co-host Peter De Lorenzo, the
Autoextremist, and Lindsay Brooke from SAE.
