The 2002 DeVille is offered in three distinct models: base DeVille retails for $42,590.
DHS and DTS are both priced at $57,520. DHS stands for DeVille High-Luxury Sedan and DTS for DeVille Touring Sedan. Each has its own character and features.
Of the three, the standard DeVille fells like the traditional Cadillac DeVille, balancing luxury and value. DHS and DTS depart from Cadillac's old ways. They share many features, but as their names imply, one stresses luxury while the other highlights a sportier driving experience.
The base-level car and DHS come with a full bench front seat for six-passenger capacity, while the DTS has bucket front seats. The DeVille uses Cadillac's traditional digital instrumentation, while the DHS and DTS get the analog (dial) instruments that are sometimes preferred by enthusiast drivers.
Even the Nuance leather on DHS and DTS models is designed to match the tastes of different buyers: Where the DHS has elegant gathered leather upholstery, the DTS has stretched perforated skins for a sporty look. Yet both offer a supple fit and feel.
