The appearance of the Cadillac symbol dates as far back as 1902. Engineer Henry Liland and businessman William Murphy contributed to the overall concept and look. The family Cadillac crest is in honor of Henry Le Sieur Antoine De La Mothe Cadillac, a military leader and French administrator in the 1700s. The current logo is a bit different, as it was changed in 2014 to the laurel wreath design with the coat of arms. There have been a number of other changes over the years. In fact, there have been about 40 different updated versions.
The laurel wreaths logo design represents the new design of the Cadillac brand and the evolution this brand has gone through over many decades. The previous design wasn't preferred by the majority of customers any longer, and the manufacturer responded. The first models to have the newest version included were the coupe ATS and sedan CTS.
