Cadillac Seville 3rd Gen

1986 – 1991 — USA

The Cadillac Seville was a mid-size luxury car produced from 1976 to 2004, positioned as a smaller, premium model within the Cadillac lineup. In 2004, the Seville was succeeded by the STS model starting in the 2005 model year. The car was named "Cadillac's first small car," chosen over options like LaSalle and LaScala due to its lack of negative associations, according to GM Marketing Director Gordon Horsburgh. The name "Leland" was initially considered as a nod to one of Cadillac's founders but was ultimately dismissed due to potential confusion among buyers and Henry Leland's connection to Lincoln. After extensive research and consideration of various suggestions, the name LaSalle emerged as the top choice for the Cadillac model, followed by St. Moritz and Seville as other contenders. Key points: 1. The Cadillac Seville was a mid-size luxury car manufactured by Cadillac from 1976 to 2004. 2. It was designed as a smaller-sized, premium model within Cadillac's lineup. 3. The name "Seville" was chosen for the model, emphasizing its lack of negative associations compared to other options like LaSalle and LaScala. 4. The name "Leland" was considered but ultimately rejected due to potential buyer confusion and Henry Leland's affiliation with Lincoln. 5. The replacement for the Cadillac Seville was the STS, introduced in 2004 for the 2005 model year.
