Gorgeous thing, so far. Hopefully, it's as decent mechanically.

Woof! Looks great. However, the back didn't translate well in the Lyriq. Hoping that's not the case here.

I wonder which GM brand is the least profitable these days, so we can already know which one is the next to die.

 

[Ghost1]

OMG, this looks so impressive. I want this car so much.

It will be a jaw dropping model in person. Well done.

Looks good. Not great as it ought to be, but good.

In typical current Cadillac fashion, exterior lighting is fussy. While I understand a more teardrop hatch set-up is needed for a BEV, I was hoping it'd be more of a 3-box appearance. For the rumored US$300K asking price, it'd better be an exact presentation of the concept.

Porsche 928 vibes.

 

[Ghost1]

Nice?

Based on his post history, do we have to assume @Ghost1 is that weird individual named John Galt who insisted in being a Cadillac PR in a German car forum?

Didn’t the mods shrug his Atlas to the kerb?

 

[J.E]

Honestly, I'm amazed that Cadillac is still around.

Are you talking to me? I don't need/have clones. And never had. This is my one and only profile.

 

[SCOTT27]

I get Audi Grand Sphere vibes too.
This a concept? The Lyriq has not exactly translated well visually compared to the concept.

Their government PA was interesting especially when everyone in the US administration overlooks Tesla’s achievements in favour of GM because of Tesla’s no union approach. To the lines of diesel powered generators charging Lyriqs in a rural setting when virtue signalling about Electric cars and fossil fuels.

Diesel Powered Generator out of shot when lecturing about fossil fuels.

While I understand a more teardrop hatch set-up is needed for a BEV, I was hoping it'd be more of a 3-box appearance.

Oh man.. I can't imagine how incredible this would look with 3-box proportions, with a rear quarter panel shape similar to the Sixteen concept.. would've been perfect!

 

[dalab]

I like it a lot, I don't love it, it doesn't provoke the same as the Sixteen with which there was no possible discussion, this one may take a while to digest.

If it is spectacular, modern and different, I applaud the effort and set a new course for Cadillac, the 50s / 60s type interior is very successful in the retro look.

The red light in the profile, officiates to make it look like a sedan, although it is a kind of sedan, only a new type mixed with a tailgate, it has Audi grand sphere vives, the proportions are spot on

 

[Merc1]

The rear is terrible, but lets see how much translates over to the production model.

M

 

[martinbo]

Ha ha just nah. Typical Cadillac - the concept’s fanfare never translates into production model success. And I think it’s ugly too - particularly the rear.

 

[Sunny]

Overstyled mess. The Lyriq suv looks way better. But then again, on the bright side, even if it looked out of this world, still wouldn't save Cadillac. So nothing to feel bad about.

US$300K

Haha 300k for a cadillac? Lol, It better come with lifetime supply of blow jobs from a supermodel.

How nice it is to be able to see the highlights of things and not just exclusively the negative that may seem to us personally.

In that sense, I remember Infinity, Acura and Lexus, surprising the world and knocking out Cadillac completely in the 90s, credit of the Japanese for embarrassing the Americans (and some others too).
Today none of the three mentioned has anything currently comparable to this.

The celestiq, has some of the Citroen madness, and many others, it's not the Cadillac I expected, but it's good enough to fight, they decided and did it, the others didn't dare yet.

According to what happened with the Lyriq, if this is a "finished" concept I don't think it will lose almost anything transferred to production

A not minor point is that wherever you look at it, even though it radically changed the design tone, it is an American car.
If they want to charge 300 k it will lose all the outstanding points that I mentioned
