Cadillac has seen historically low sales around the rest of the world. As an example, while selling 146,925 units last year here in America, it recorded only 17,366 sales in China. And though the difference is more than significant, that last sales figure is expected to grow exponentially. The brand expects export sales to grow from roughly to 30,000 in 2010 to somewhere around 50,000 for 2011, with most of the help coming from gains in China.
Cadillac’s Don Butler laid the not-so-bold-ass-prediction that the Land of The Dragon will become the largest luxury market in the world by 2020, and if all things go according to plan, that would mean that Cadillac’s sales would essentially double globally.

more y look the car more y like it ,clean designe….not over like the hyundai car..y no dont compar a caddy and soap box” sorry lollll
And Cadillac better sell more abroad than in the ‘states! You can’t be the “Standard of the world” by staying at home.
I say “go to the ends of the earth and then bring us to it, Cadillac; and don’t ever return to the wasteful, vulgar junk of your past that will alienate the drivers of tommorow”.
This could very well be Cadillac’s last chance at being a marque of outstanding luxury that is lusted for by people the world over; and they won’t get their by harping on the past.
Onward Cadillac, and don’t look back.
