Cadillac thinned its ranks considerably in 1994, dropping both the Allante convertible and Sixty Special sedan as well as eliminating the Coupe deVille.
All series except the Fleetwood were realigned.
The DeVille (now identified on the car with a capital “ D”) series was now comprised of the Sedan DeVille and (Sedan) DeVille Concours.
The Eldorado Sport Coupe formerly offered was discontinued and the Eldo series consisted of the "base" coupe and Eldorado Touring Coupe (ETC).
The two trim levels of Seville offered were now distinguished as the Seville Luxury Sedan (SLS) and Seville Touring Sedan (STS).
Other than the Sedan DeVille and Fleetwood, powered by 4.9-liter V-8 and 5.7-liter V-8 engines, respectively, the Northstar 4.6-liter V-8 was used in all other Cadillacs.
Every Cadillac met 1997 federal mandates for dynamic side impact standards, and all models featured steel safety cage construction. side door beams and front and rear crush zones.
