How It Got Its Score: The 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon is the first station wagon from the storied luxury brand. It's a good one, too, with lots of cargo space and decent, if not great, fuel economy.

A Cadillac station wagon? You bet. Cadillac introduced a wagon version of its CTS as a counterpunch to cars like the Audi A4 Avant. The 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon offers most of the same benefits as the sedan: A bigger rear seat, beautiful styling inside and out, plentiful standard features. The wagon body looks good, maybe better than the sedan, and its 25 cu.-ft. of space can be expanded to 53.4 cu.-ft. with the seats folded down. The downside is that fuel economy is only so-so, and some wagons that cost less offer more room, although not quite this level of luxury. Also keep in mind that crossovers often offer better utility and more interior space. Still, as a luxury hauler, the 2010 Cadillac CTS Sport Wagon is hard to resist.
