Cadillac Ciel

Automobiles

The Cadillac Ciel is a hybrid electric concept car that Cadillac unveiled at the 2011 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It is a four seat convertible on a 125 inch wheelbase, with rear suicide doors and a smooth wooden dashboard with a simple gauge look. A twin turbocharged 3.6 litre direct injection V6 producing 425 horsepower works with a hybrid system that uses lithium ion batteries. The name is the French word for sky, which is what the designers had in mind. GM Design developed it at its North Hollywood Design Center, and Niki Smart designed it. Cadillac thought about building a production car from it in 2012 and early 2013 but decided in July 2013 not to go ahead, and it later shared its design with the Elmiraj coupe. The car appeared in the 2015 film Entourage.
