Production Version of Cadillac Celestiq Gets Camo Wrap For On-Road Testing

The Cadillac Celestiq is now doing road testing. The automaker didn’t want people to take a good look at the EV, so it covered the body with an interesting camouflage pattern. In addition, the body of the production version looks a little different from the concept.

“This is a huge moment for everyone at Cadillac to see the Celestiq launch at our pre-production facility and drive onto the public road for the first time,” said Jeremy Loveday, Celestiq’s engineering program manager. “There’s more to come, and we look forward to continuing development of Cadillac’s newest flagship.”

Camouflage masks the stylistic details of the concept. For example, the lines in the grid are missing. We can only see a smooth nose, except for cuts for various sensors. Vertical lighting elements still occupy the outer edge. The lower fascia has two small holes.

On the sides, the styling looks flatter on the production version. On the concept, there are some fine carvings there. Although, it could be a matter of camouflage covering up the details.

The rear of this camouflaged car looks very much like the concept. The hockey stick-shaped taillight continues to occupy a prominent place along the side of the rear glass. It looks like the bottom light has a slightly different shape, but it’s still there.

Cadillac with production specifications will premiere later this year. The brand is clear that most of the technology from the show car will make the transition to the vehicles that go on sale. Those elements include a large number of 55-inch screens that run diagonally across the dashboard.

The Celestiq also has a panoramic glass roof. There are four dimmable zones if certain residents don’t enjoy natural light.

The big mystery about the Celestiq is its powertrain. We know that the sedan uses the GM Ultium platform. No specifications available yet.

Cadillac is building the Celestiq at GM’s Global Technical Center, and you can see a glimpse of its location in these pictures. The site received an $81 million upgrade to support vehicle production there.
