Equipped with Cadillac’s award-winning rear wheel drive architecture, the model is distinguished by a fusion of luxurious design, a spirited, turbocharged performance and the utmost comfort, supported by Cadillac’s latest technologies, perfectly suited to meet the requirements of the Dubai Police fleet and take on its duties.
