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

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

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.

time since 1902 in order to construct

An Air Cushion Restraint Sys-

1974,
1975 and 1976 Cadillacs.
Analog Electronic Fuel Injec-

and
was
standard
on
the new inter-
national size 1976 Seville. In 1978,
the Trip Computer option incor-
porated an on-board microprocessor.
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

of

If
you don’t, you or others could be hurt.
