Cadillac BLS Sales Figures

Cadillac BLS Sales Data & Trends

It’s quite easy to think of the Cadillac BLS as the missing link between the controversial Cadillac-badged 1980s Chevy Cavalier called the Cimarron and the more modern Cadillac ATS. After all, this compact luxury sedan made between 2006 and 2010 pairs a small footprint with Cadillac’s Art and Science design language in one mildly discomforting package. That’s not to say that the BLS is ugly, it’s just a bit uncanny. If you’re North American, the Cadillac BLS is almost but not quite familiar. All the aesthetic ingredients of a Cadillac are here, but something just feels off, like it’s some sort of imitation.

Well, the Cadillac BLS may not have been an exciting car, but it seems to have been a comfortable product of badge engineering. Unfortunately, a worked-over Saab with Cadillac emblems is exactly what Europeans didn’t want. Cadillac only sold 7,356 units of the BLS from launch in Spring 2006 through 2008. However, just because the BLS didn’t do well in the marketplace, it was still a solid shot by Cadillac at compact luxury car redemption.
