Haven't heard anything otherwise. I know it was one of the most popular cars of the Auto Task Force. They kept asking Bob Lutz about it...
Too bad its still a year away...

The ESV would also have to be separate then.
What about the Orlando. Is that still coming out?
There were some shots of winter testing earlier this year.

Also, at -6:39 of part 5 of the 20/20 GM special they have covered a square looking vehicle that looks like it could be the Orlando.

XLR is dead. CTS, CTS coupe, CTS wagon and CTS-V are all CTS, and so are all counted as one nameplate, I would think. You wouldn't count Camaro and Camaro SS as different nameplates, would you? I think Orlando is replacing HHR, if so that wouldn't add to the list. Keep in mind, this is all just educated guessing based on stuff I've read (mostly here).
Sounds like we can eventually add Caprice to the Chevy list, though not sure how soon that would actually be available.

They are more than engine differences as well...but still a CTS.
Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong but wont the CTS coupe will be called the CTC since it's a coupe rather than a sedan?

Has the soon to be released CTS wagon been dubbed the CTW??>..I don't thinks so.
The CTS is now a brand name the CTS coupe will be called the CTS coupe and not the CTC, let go of any reasoning and accept the CTS Coupe for what it is ,the CTS Coupe.

2010 Cadillac CTC, Cadillac CTS Coupe, Spotted From Behind
Check out the rear end on this 2010 Cadillac CTC, the 2010 Cadillac CTS Coupe but with a 'C' for Coupe instead of an 'S' for Sedan (get it?). Of note is the smooth glasshouse created by the hidden B-pillar and the center-mounted square exhaust pipes contained within the bumper. Also apparent is some sort of hidden door handle, further smoothing out the CTC's lines. Full spy report from KGP after the jump.
