2008 Cadillac STS V-6 - Features

The STS’s steering is also updated with a variable-ratio rack that allows for quicker steering at low speeds—less cranking in parking-lot maneuvering—and slower steering at higher speeds, so a freeway sneeze won’t tuck your Caddy under the rear axle of that tractor-trailer in the next lane. With all this gadgetry attached to the front wheels, we expected the steering feel to all but disappear, but we were pleasantly surprised to find a positive connection to the road and wonderful weighting. Our only complaint was a slight twitchiness when encountering bumps just off-center.
