    Cadillac unveils Ciel concept

    Cadillac unveils Ciel concept
    In the highly celebrated 90s television programme, Batman: The Animated Series, the designers sketched out an art deco paradise, imagining how citizens of the 1950s would view the future. It was all gothic skyscrapers and ice-cold noir. And the cars they drove looked like modernised post-war Cadillacs...

    Keep this in mind as you peruse these pictures of the rather striking new Cadillac Ciel concept, unveiled yesterday at Pebble Beach, California. Despite being a four-seat convertible - and you should know the TG mantra on this - the open-air grand tourer looks pretty fantastic.

    Caddy has installed a twin-turbocharged 425hp 3.6-litre V6 engine paired with a hybrid system using lithium-ion battery technology, producing a useful 430lb ft of torque, conceived to waft the Ciel along the glorious, amorous Californian coastline.

        If only it had a top...

          Shame it's only a concept and the final build will look nothing like it.

              They always have some amazing looking concept
              Then they never make it

              And here we go again with another moron jumping on the hybrid train

              The one time in the past decades Cadillac had a good idea, they licensed it for two years and then sold it. Night vision.

              Cadillac had the first automatic lights, fuel injection, power locks and windows, electronic engine management and some other shit - but they're been resting on their laurels until they fell right the hell through and they'll never come back

              The Chrysler 300 is what a Cadillac WOULD look like if the world still made sense
