The 2015 Cadillac ATS sedan and coupe will come with Powermat, wireless charging of smartphones as a standard feature on vehicles equipped with the CUE or Cadillac User Experience system.

nterested customers can expect the new 2015 ATS to reach dealerships sometime during the fourth quarter of 2014.

The wireless charging technology will be added to the 2015 Cadillac CTS sedan this fall and to the 2015 Cadillac Escalade SUV at the end of 2014, according to GM.

Those who choose to use the Powermat service simply place their phone on a rubberized pad in the ATS.

The battery recharges by using an electromagnetic field.

"An increasing number of smartphones have wireless charging either embedded or as an option," said GM in a statement. "The wireless charger GM and Powermat created accommodates the majority of these enabled devices."

CUE includes new content, like text-to-voice feature for smartphone users with Bluetooth, which reads incoming texts through the vehicle's speakers.
