Overview

  • Revealed at The Quail in Carmel, California, the all‑electric crossover blends V‑Series performance cues with off‑road capability and a wellness‑focused cabin.
  • Showcar features include gull‑wing doors, 2+2 seating, 24‑inch wheels, electric all‑wheel drive, adjustable air suspension and an augmented‑reality head‑up display.
  • Drive experiences span Welcome, Elevate and Velocity, with Elevate retracting controls and using infrared light intended to aid post‑activity recovery.
  • Desert‑oriented ideas include a vibration function to shed dust and enhanced visibility tools for driving through sandstorms.
  • Cadillac has not released specifications, and some outlets speculate about dual‑ or tri‑motor powertrains with very high output if produced.
