For the 1948 model, Cadillac introduced the legendary
tail
fin which once more set the trend in automotive
styling for nearly two decades. This was closely
followed with the two door hardtop Coupe DeVille and
the industry's first modem overhead valve, high
compression V8 engine on the 1949 model.
Engineering innovations, conveniences and styling
dominated the
'50s and '60s. Cruise control, automatic
climate control, tilt and telescoping steering wheels,
twilight sentinel and four door hard tops all debuted in
these years.
In 1957 the Eldorado Brougham featured advances such
as air suspension, memory seat,
automatic electric door locks, transistor radio, a brushed
stainless steel roof and low profile tires.
1957 Eldorado Brougham
The Eldorado, introduced in 1953, was redesigned for
1967 as the first front wheel drive personal luxury car.
The 472 cu. in.
V8 engine used in all Cadillacs in 1968
and 1969 was enlarged to
500 cu. in. for all 1970
through 1976 Eldorados. The Track Master
computerized skid control braking system option
debuted on 1970 Eldorados.
A driver and passenger Air Cushion Restraint
system (air bag) was available on all 1974, 1975 and
1976 Cadillacs.
Analog Electronic Fuel Injection was available, on
1975 Cadillacs and standard on the new international
size 1976 Seville. In 1978, the Trip Computer option
incorporated the first on-board microprocessor.
