First Drive: 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon

The 2010 Cadillac Sport Wagon may be the GM brand's first car with a built-in family-planning moment. "Honey, do we really want more than one kid?"

Still, it's far from the horrifying prospect that, say, a Chevrolet Venture might have been, back in the days when GM wasn't very serious about building exciting vehicles for more than two people.

The Coupe had been due for a release this summer, but GM's bankruptcy resulted in many product planning changes, including the delay of the two-door CTS.
