Deville Cadillac Models & History 1970

eVilles had all of the same features as Calais models, plus dual rear cigarette lighters, Two-Way horizontal control front seat adjusters and rear center arm rest in all models except convertibles. Exterior distinction came from a DeVille script above the rear end of the belt molding and from the use of long, rectangular backup light lenses set into the lower rear bumper, as opposed to the smaller, square lenses used on Calais.

A new feature seen this year was a body color border around the edges of the vinyl top covering, when this option was ordered. This treatment had first been seen on 1969 Fleetwoods. The Sedan DeVille and Convertible DeVille were in their last season.
