From rumors in 2020<\/a> to confirmation early last year<\/a>, Cadillac<\/a> has been drip-feeding information about its flagship luxury EV, the Celestiq. That continues with the latest teaser photos shown above, and a barren, but boastful press release.<\/p>\n

How boastful? Take this little nugget: “From first approach, the striking silhouette of the Celestiq show car leaves a lasting impression, challenging the ultra-luxury space with the spirit of futurism and the avant-garde.”<\/p>\n

What little we can make of the photos certainly seems good. They’re apparently of a Celestiq show car, but Cadillac has previously confirmed the car will make it to production starting next year<\/a>. The most promising of the images is of the left front fender, which is long and low, with a thin amount of metal between the top of the tire and the sheetmetal. It has us hoping for something along the lines of Cadillac’s many<\/em> beautiful show cars of the past few decades. The bolt on the door hinge with the brand’s classic motto, “Standard of the World” is another nice touch.<\/p>\n

Previous reports and images have suggested the Celestiq is some kind of sedan, or possibly a liftback. At the very least, it’s not another crossover<\/a> or SUV. It will be the first model from GM<\/a> to feature Ultra Cruise<\/a>, which takes the hands-free functions of Super Cruise beyond highways. And it could cost more than $200,000. Cadillac will be releasing further teaser shots of the Celestiq this summer on the General Motors<\/a> Design Instagram account. We expect the show car to be revealed late this year or early next year in anticipation of production sometime next year.<\/p>\n
