It is only a matter of weeks, if not days, before Cadillac begins U.S. sales of its new flagship XTS sedan model that will hits dealerships with a starting MSRP of $44,995, including destination.

Today, we have a fresh batch of high-resolution photos to share with you, which preview the Cadillac sedan in new shades and from different angles.

As a quick reminder, the 2013 XTS is available exclusively with a 300-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 engine matched to a six-speed automatic transmission that drives the front wheels, with an all-wheel drive system offered as an option.

Cadillac tells us that the front-wheel drive XTS achieves an estimated fuel economy of 17mpg in the city and 28mpg on the highway, while the AWD model returns 17mpg and 27mpg respectively.

Aside from the base model, the XTS is also available in three more trim levels named Luxury, Premium and Platinum.
