Cadillac has officially started delivering the Celestiq EV, its ultra-luxury flagship, marking a milestone in American EV craftsmanship. Designed to rival the likes of Rolls-Royce and Bentley, this $350,000 hand-assembled sedan blends advanced technology with bespoke artistry.
Designer Craftsmanship Meets EV Innovation
Each Celestiq is crafted at GM’s Global Technical Center in Warren, MI, within a specialized Artisan Center where only about 400 units are produced annually.
Highly skilled technicians, selected through a rigorous apprenticeship program, assemble the car over multiple stations, using giant cast aluminum underbodies and dozens of 3D-printed metal components.
The sleek fastback shape is instantly recognizable, with flush B‑pillar door buttons replacing handles and distinctive vertical taillights echoing Cadillac's design language. The smart glass roof is divided into four independently adjustable zones, giving each occupant precise control over sunlight and transparency.
5 Screens, 38 Speakers, Unmatched Comfort
Inside, Cadillac has completely reimagined luxury. A 55-inch widescreen display spans the dashboard, featuring dual 12.6-inch rear screens and a central 8-inch console‑mounted panel. The all-glass roof, with glossy suspended-particle technology and infrared coating, keeps the cabin refined and cool.
Ultra Cruise, GM’s hands-free driving system, debuts here, providing near-autonomous capabilities. A 38-speaker AKG Dolby Atmos system, including exterior speakers, elevates the cabin experience.
Powerful, Smooth, and Sophisticated
The Celestiq’s dual-motor AWD system produces around 600 horsepower and 868 lb-ft of torque, powered by a 111 kWh Ultium battery. Cadillac estimates a 0-60 mph run in about 3.8 seconds and a range close to 300 miles, with quick-charging capabilities delivering up to 78 miles of range in just 10 minutes.
The minimalist interior includes four-link suspension with magnetic ride control, active rear steering, and adaptive air suspension.
Bespoke Experience, Flagship Price
The Celestiq is fully customizable, offering hundreds of combinations in leather, wood, metal, and trim. Customers collaborate directly with designers at Cadillac House to craft a unique car. With a base price around $350,000, it's positioned as a highly personalized alternative to ultra-luxury European rivals.
