The Cadillac Society Take
After a notable uptick in October, a 5 percent decline in November, and a precipitous drop in December, South Korean Cadillac sales stabilized in January. The development is welcome news, since it gives the luxury car brand the ability to work from a stable base as it kicks off the biggest product offensive in its history.
