1994 OWNER’S LITERATURE

PENALTY O F LEADERSHIP

(Caddlac &tor C a r Co. Detroit, Mich.)

Henry M. Leland, known as the master of precision, initiated his pre- cision manufacturing techniques at the founding of Cadillac in 1902. His exacting standards prompted the motto by which Cadillac has been guided over the years -"Craftsmanship A Creed -Accuracy A Law:'

The introduction of the first four cylinder en- gine in 1905 led the industry and enabled Cadillacs to travel at speeds up to 50 mph.

For attention to quality and in-

novation, the Royal Automobile both

Club of England awarded the pres-

tigious - 1

to Cadillac twice . . .

first in 1908 for achieving perfect interchangeability of parts and again in 1912 for introducing the elec- tric self starter, electric lighting and ignition system.

Cadillac is the only American manufacturer to win this honor and the only manufacturer in the world to win it twice. As commonplace as stan- dardized parts are today, in 1908 parts were still individually hand fitted in production and service.

Standardization opened the eyes of the industrial world ar-’ ---? the cor- ner-stone of modern1 production. From this achievement evolved the reference to Cadillac as “Standard of the World:’

In 1909 Cadillac was purchased by the then new General Motors Corporation. Convenience, clean- liness and all-weather comfort were greatly enhanced in 1910 when Cad- illac became the first manufacturer to offer closed bodies as standard equipment.

“The Penalty of Leadership” first appeared in the January 2, 1915 issue of The Saturdav Evenine Post as an expression of the Cadillac com- mitment to leadership, quality, and innovation. It is widely regarded as one of the finest documents ever written and was published following the introduction of the first produc- tion V8 engine. The V8 was stan- dard in all 1915 model Cadillacs.

Many Cadillac “firsts” have fol- lowed over the years, including the synchro-mech clashless transmis- sion, a nation-wide comprehensive

service policy, security plate glass, chrome plating and the first car to be designed by a stylist (1927 La- Salle/Harley Earl). The ’30s wit- nessed production of the smooth and quiet V12 and The crisp, contemporary lines of the 1938 60 Special series ushered in a new era in styling.

During World War 11, shortly after Pearl Harbor, Cadillac discon- tinued car production for the first time since 1902 in order to construct light tanks, combat vehicles and internal parts for Allison V1710 en- gines. Two Cadillac V8 engines and Hydra-Matic transmissions were used in each tank.

An Air Cushion Restraint Sys- tem (airbag) was available for 1974, 1975 and 1976 Cadillacs.

Analog Electronic Fuel Injec- tion was available, on 1975 Cadillacs and was standard on the new inter- national size 1976 Seville. In 1978, the Trip Computer option incor- porated an on-board microprocessor.

Engineering innovations, con- veniences and styling dominated the '50s and '60s. Cruise control, auto- matic climate control, tilt a n d telescoping steering wheels, twilight sentine1 and four door hard tops all debuted in these years. In 1957 the Eldorado Brougham featured ad- vances such as air suspension, mem- ory seat, automatic electric door locks, transistor radio, a brushed

A 1993 Cadillac Allantk in stock technical configuration, was selected as the pace car for the 76th Indianap- olis 500. The demanding pace car performance and handling require- ments were met because of such advances as the Northstar system. The system includes the 32 valve, dual overhead camshaft, Northstar 4.6 liter V8 engine, 4T80 E electroni- cally controlled automatic transaxle, road sensing suspension, speed sen- sitive steering, antilock brakes and traction control.

For more than nine decades Cadillac has been a leader in quality and technical innovation. Now more than ever, substance takes shape

This rich tradition continues

into the '90s as Cadillac became the first automobile manufacturer to be awarded the prestigious Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award.

The 1992 Seville STS was the first car ever to win all three major automotive awards: Car of the Year, Motor Trend; Ten Best List, Car & Driver; Car of the Year, Automobile Magazine.
