      How much for the upcoming 2015 ATS Coupe?

It will begin at $38,990 (includes a $990 destination charge) for the base 2.0L turbo-four with 274 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. Compared to the comparable ATS sedan with the 2.0T, the coupe is around $2,970 more.

    The ATS coupe can be equipped with a six-speed manual or automatic, the 3.6L DI V6 with 321 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque; and all-wheel drive. At the time of writing,we don't have pricing on those options.

    Low, Long, Wide Coupe Enhances Cadillac ATS Line

    Pricing starts at $38,990, including destination charge

    DETROIT – For the 2015 ATS Coupe, Cadillac engineers and designers made a number of changes from the award-winning ATS Sedan to deliver the performance and styling traits luxury coupe buyers expect. When the ATS Coupe goes on sale at the end of this summer, it will start at $38,990, including a $995 destination charge.

    To create a more personal expression of the brand's compact luxury car, the 2015 ATS Coupe rides on the same 109.3-inch wheelbase as the sedan, but features its own bodywork, longer vehicle length, lower height and wider front/rear tracks.

    The roof, doors, rear fenders and trunk lid are unique to the Coupe, along with a specific front fascia and front fenders to accommodate the wider track. 18-inch wheels are standard on the Coupe.

    "All of the surface development unique to the ATS Coupe was done with aerodynamics in mind," said David Masch, ATS chief engineer. "We are able to achieve lift and downforce requirements to insure, at top speed, we retain handling without having to add a rear spoiler."

    The Coupe has an aggressive stance, with wider front/rear tracks and a lower roofline than the sedan. At 60.3 inches front and 61.7 inches rear, the two-door has a 0.8-inch wider track. Overall vehicle height is 1.1 inches lower than the Sedan. The wider stance and lower roofline provide the proportions coupe customers want.

    "The wider track also helps improve steering precision and direct response," said Cadillac Executive Chief Engineer David Leone. "The lower roof contributes to a lower center of gravity height, which also reduces roll and improves steering response."

    The 2015 ATS Coupe is also 0.8 inches longer than the sedan; although it rides on an identical wheelbase. The extra overall length helps to further enhance the ATS Coupe's dynamic appearance, resulting in a swept-back look to the front and rear end appearances.

    The Cadillac ATS Coupe is intended to be a more personal addition to the award-winning ATS product line. Designed to be lighter, more agile and more engaging than its competitors, it extends Cadillac's product-driven growth and the brand's tradition of dynamic luxury Coupes. The 2015 ATS Coupe goes on sale this summer, offering drivers the choice of rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, and the power from a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder or a 3.6L six-cylinder.

    Coupes are usually more expensive than the 4-door because they generally do not build a "rental-car" special version of it. The CTS coupe was more expensive than the sedan - more standard features, no lowest-level engine, usually better everything than the base-model sedan.

    Interesting that the coupe is more expensive than the 4 door sedan, so does that mean ATS prices for the coupe on the 2016 4 door ATS are going up?

    Notice there is no 2.5 liter 4-cylinder on the coupe as there is on the sedan.

    Thanks Drew, Great point I had overlooked. That would cause a lower price but I doubt they would sell many or initially they would but people would not be happy with it.

    Why would someone buy this car? If a Camaro SS it at the same price point with a bigger engine, then what other features does the ATS have to offer that would be better?

    I ask out of concern for the ATS. Will there be a V-Series edition with the 3.6l V6 TT with 420 hp at $45K?

    Plenty of people that do not want a muscle gas guzzling car but want a fun to drive luxury coupe.

    The Camaro has a lousy interior. People would buy this over a Camaro or Mustang for luxury and probably size and looks, and handling. The same reason people buy the A5, C-class coupe, 4-series, etc instead of buying a muscle car.

    Once the Camaro shifts to the Alpha chassis then the comparison gets a little closer, which is why I think the next gen Camaro will have a 4-cylinder as the base, because they can't give the Camaro a better base engine than a Cadillac on the same platform.

    I like the car, but i still think Acura CL coupe or Honda Civic coupe meets G6 coupe when I see this thing. Maybe I could swipe a new emblem off the hood of one of these and put it on my G6 coupe grille and have the same effect.

    there is drama missing in the rear flanks, and the c pillar is a bit sparse......

    same dash as the sedan, too. they should have change that up too.

    Check out this interview from last October where Bob Lutz says that the new ATS was really supposed to be the next-gen G6 if Pontiac had not been eliminated.

    http://www.autoblog.com/2013/10/29/lutz-says-washington-killed-pontiac-next-g6-was-to-be-ats-deriv/

    The plan was to REALLY make Pontiac a true driving excitement brand with an all high-performance and rear wheel drive only line-up.

    I'm wondering if it could simply be that the car doesn't photograph well... I was kind of 'meh' on the 4-Series styling until I saw one IRL...

    • With Boeing having signed a 20yr agreement with Canada and moving R&D and Manufacturing to Canada, I can easily see this flip back to Boeing as Canada is going to want to support business and jobs that are based in Canada. I would not say this is a done deal as the bulk of the order with Airbus is Options, which are easily canceled. Boeing started with a $240 Million Investment in 2024 in Canada. Boeing to Invest $240 Million CAD in Québec Aerospace Innovation Then added $85 million more in early 2025. Boeing Commits $85M To New Canadian Innovation Zone Espace Aéro Then came the big bomb shell at the end of the year that had Idiot47 going off as $5.4 Billion will now be spent in Canada rather than the U.S. In 2025, Boeing is significantly expanding its footprint in Canada. While it is not moving its entire operation, it is shifting more manufacturing and research capability there as part of a $5.4 billion investment obligation (ITB) linked to Canada’s purchase of P-8A Poseidon aircraft. Where the Manufacturing is Moving/Expanding: • Winnipeg, MB: In June 2025, Boeing opened a 12,000 sq. ft. expansion to its composite plant. This doubled its capacity to build parts for the 737 MAX and 787 Dreamliner. • Montreal, QC: Boeing is investing $240 million into the "Espace Aéro" innovation zone. This includes manufacturing and R&D for next-gen landing gear (with Héroux-Devtek) and autonomous air taxis (Wisk Aero). • Parksville, BC: A $13 million investment in COTA Aviation has funded new advanced manufacturing equipment and a training facility for aerospace production. • Mount Pearl, NL: A $10.3 million investment in Solace Power is establishing a new electronics production facility for aerospace parts in Atlantic Canada. • Alberta: A $2.7 million investment was made to create the Xpand™ Canada Commercialization Centre, focusing on manufacturing technologies for aerospace and energy security. The stories are all small parts of what adds up to be billions as Boeing cancels expansion and updates for Washington State and North Carolina manufacturing and R&D. Boeing Invests $110M In Espace Aéro - Canadian Manufacturing So many little stories that make up the whole. This all started with the original big investment back in 2020.  Boeing set to boost Canada's economy with $61bn investment | Manufacturing Digital
    • They are buying more Airbus, and changing things around. I think more fleets worldwide will buy more and more Airbus, but Airbus is supply constrained. That's the only thing saving Boeing. 
    • This kind of blocking of the truth and lack of transparency is hurting, not helping our democracy and tends to say that the Head of Homeland / ICE needs to be arrested and put in jail along with all the rest of the stool Pigeons. Minnesota officials say FBI blocked their access to ICE shooting probe
    • Sad News, ICE is reporting that their agents making a stop to arrest two narco gang members from Venezuela in Oregon had to be shot, they are in the hospital, developing story. 2 shot by federal agent in 'targeted' stop, Portland mayor asks ICE halt operations Portland Mayor Keith Wilson told reporters, "We know what the federal government says happened here. There was a time when we could take them at their word. That time is long past." "We are calling on ICE to halt all operations in Portland until a full and independent investigation can take place," he said. "Our community deserves answers."  
    • Here are some interior views Sensible dashboard with easy to use controls - climate control vents and small touch screen embedded under the cowl ... all Versas have the black and blue trim, so they only offer exterior colors that work with that Push button ignition instead of key inserted into the side of the steering column and various cubby slots to power up Analog gauge for speedo at the right and left (display 1): digital readout Analog gauge for speedo at the right and left (display 2): trip information Analog gauge for speedo at the right and left (display 3): driving aids graphics ... and they're usually telling you something useful Analog gauge for speedo at the right and left (display 4): tire pressure Analog gauge for speedo at the right and left (display 5): DRUM ROLL ... a temperature gauge, which I almost require Pull tabs for everything in close proximity:  trunk release, hood release, and fuel door release Good rear visibility and all around, really - - - - -
