T exitely My scustor Engine for Cadillac Midâ€"priced sedan redefined «Engines and power trains have always been a hallmark of Cadillac. For instance, the first Cadillac engine, produced by Henry Leland, produced a whopping 10 horsepower â€" three times more than that of Oldsmobile‘s engine. Cadillac‘s V8 engines, introâ€" duced in 1914, incorporated advanced features such as aluminum crank cases and thermostatically controlled cooling systems. Cadillac continues its distinâ€" guished tradition in 1995 with refineâ€" ollowing upon last year‘s Fredesign of the De Ville Sedan _ and introduction of the De Ville Concours, Cadillac for 1995 is focusing on engineering refinements and expanded convenience features, such as the new wiperâ€"activated head lamp system on frontâ€"wheelâ€"drive models. ans costing much more. These benâ€" éfits include exceptional performance and handling, superb vehicle dynamics, the most advanced safety features and leading edge, customerâ€"focused techâ€" nology. Mystique‘s styling is refined and elegant. The newest Mercury‘s cabâ€"forâ€" ward design is smooth, rounded and [he Mercury Mystique is out to y redefine a class of cars with k. wide appeal in Canada â€" modâ€" ffitely priced, midâ€"sized sedans. Mystique delivers a combination of ustomer benefits previously only available on luxury performance Brand New "94@2" Sable Wagon or Sedan ments to the Cadillacâ€"exclusive "Northstar" multiâ€"valve V8 engine for new levels of smoothness, quietâ€" ness, durability and value. Noise reduction is enhanced through four new power train stiffening braces for reduced engine vibration. Use of a glassâ€"filled thermoplastic intake manâ€" ifold (replacing the fluid induction system) results in boosting horsepowâ€" er from 295 to 300, with an increase also in torque. Cadillac‘s 5.7â€"litre "LT1" V8 engine is enhanced with smoother apply and release of the torque conâ€" verter clutch, which translates into smoother, less discernible shifts. A quiet cam helps reduce engine mechanical noise and eliminates valve noise heard outside the vehicle. Cadillac is fineâ€"tuning its chassis system on Northstarâ€"equipped vehiâ€" seamless. Mercury Mystique can be ordered with either of two new, advancedâ€"techâ€" nology, multiâ€"valve engines.

A sensor, which monitors steer angle, shared chassisâ€" and vehiâ€" cleâ€"sensing data, and specially configâ€" ured chassis controllers and brake actuators work in concert with one another to improve vehicle braking performance. With traditional antiâ€"lock brake systems (ABS), shortest straightâ€"line stopping has been achieved by inducâ€" fourâ€"cylinder head, produces 125 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 125 footâ€" pounds of torque at 4,000 rpm. The optional allâ€"aluminum, lowâ€"mainteâ€" nance, 2.5â€"litre 24â€"valve doubleâ€"overâ€" head cam Duratec modular Vâ€"6 engine is believed to be the smallest and lightâ€" est Vâ€"6 engine in the world. It produces 165 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 154 footâ€"pounds of torque at 5,000 rpm. The Duratec engine, with allâ€"aluâ€" minum construction for weigh reducâ€" tion and thermal efficiency, marries strong lowâ€"speed throttle response and engine pull with smooth and efficient highâ€"speed power. ing tire slip. With ICCS, braking and traction control are optimized when the sensor "notifies" the new ABS controller that the vehicle is in a turn and selects a specific calibration curve to suit the driving situation. This results in reduced straight line stopping distance, reduced stopping distance and increased braking stabilâ€" ity in a highâ€"speed turn, and reduced "false triggering" of the traction conâ€" trol system in lowâ€"speed tight turns. For ‘95 De Ville and De Ville Concours, the standard traction conâ€" trol now features an "On/Off" switch in the glove compartment. This allows the driver to "rock" the vehicle out of a stuck position in heavy snow. With the system turned "off" the vehicle automatically starts up in a second gear for greater traction. Fleetwood features traction control with disable switch enhancement that allow the customer to switch the sysâ€" tem off and than back on without having to restart the vehicle to actiâ€" vate traction control as in 1993â€"94 Wiperâ€"activated head lamps, which automatically turn on the head lamps when the windshield have been use about 23 seconds, are now feaâ€" tures on the De Ville, De Ville Concours, Eldorado and Seville. This feature is independent of Daytime Running Lights. A 3â€"channel proâ€" grammable garage door opener is offered with Eldorado Seville, and new for Fleetwood is a standard antiâ€" lock feature that prevents keys from inadvertently being left in the "igniâ€" tion off" condition by enabling power locking of the driver‘s door.
