Actually, they were made for a younger consumer market, at a low cost, in hopes that they would upgrade when they got older and made more money. However, that's not what ended up happening, so they stop production of them.

is now the cts catera touring sedan

Because its the biggest piece of crap ever made. I have 8 pages of repairs over 7 years totaling more than $17,000. Which includes a engine and transmission replacement.

They are engineering failures and should have never been made. Made in Germany, sold in U.S., hated everywhere.

What does cts stand for Cadillac?

The C stands for "C class". The TS stands for Touring Sedan. This is very close to right. The CTS is actually just a continuation of the Cadillac Catera, although the CTS is not made in Germany. The "C" stands for Catera, as in Catera Touring Sedan. You may also notice that the Deville and Seville have been replaced by the Deville touring sedan (DTS) and the Seville touring sedan (STS). "CTS" stands for "C-Series Touring Sedan." CTS-V is the sports model and a bit more expensive. The abbreviation has nothing to do with the Catera.
