Cadillac is within the technique of electrifying its lineup, however up to now that has solely translated right into a slew of crossovers, SUVs, and one large sedan; the $340,000 Celestiq. That appears to be altering. Not less than so far as idea automobiles are involved.
The American model is teasing a brand new idea car referred to as Opulent Velocity, which seems to be a low-slung sedan or coupe. Here is all the pieces Cadillac has informed us about it: It is electrical with zero emissions, it is celebrating 20 years of V-Sequence Cadillacs, and it has an exhaust notice.
We are able to hope that this automotive is V8-powered, however I doubt it. Regardless of making a daring noise because it goes by, this factor is gonna be an EV with one thing alongside the strains of Dodge’s “Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust,” if I needed to guess. GM is planning extra PHEVs, however there is not any indication that the Cadillac model—which will probably be GM’s first to completely electrify—is part of that scheme.
The video above is probably the most telling factor in regards to the idea car, however beneath I’ve pulled a couple of of the perfect stills and included the one picture Cadillac despatched over so we are able to attempt to get a greater take a look at this factor. It is not a crossover, on the very least.
The one different factor Cadillac mentioned is that we’ll be taught extra in regards to the automotive “later this 12 months”, which may imply a number of months. In any case, as quickly as we all know extra, you may be the primary to know.
