this is what Bob Lutz said in a story

'On the growing size of domestic cars: "We have no plans to show a Cadillac 18 or 24. I think this year, just when everybody expects us to go longer, lower, wider, heavier, more cylinders and more horsepower, we may decide to surprise you in the other direction."

All the literature indicates that the STS will be taller than the CTS and in dimensions about the same as the SRX -- which has considerably mor second row legroom, for example, than the CTS.

STS will be ~4" larger (OAL) than CTS.

The SRX has 41.0 inches (36.2 for the CTS) of second row legroom. The
BMW 745i/745Li has 37.2 and 42.4 inches respectively. So 40/41
for the STS would be nice.
