Cadillac Opulent Velocity Concept Hypercar

Cadillac has unveiled its new Opulent Velocity Concept, an impressive glimpse of all-electric luxury and performance, merging advanced technology and pushing the envelope of the future of electric hypercars.

Cadillac’s concept offers two distinct driver experiences: Opulent and Velocity. The Opulent mode emphasizes the luxury of time, providing an immersive, hands-free experience through Level 4 autonomous driving. With advanced features like a full widescreen display and Augmented Reality Head-Up Display (AR HUD), this mode transforms travel into a multi-sensory experience. Cadillac’s exploration into the scientific properties of sound and light is evident throughout the cabin, where curated art, entertainment, and ambient lighting create a sophisticated, personalized environment.

Velocity mode is all about performance. When activated via a multi-functional controller, the vehicle transitions from autonomous to high-performance mode, unveiling the steering wheel and pedals. The front seats, designed to support the driver during high-speed maneuvers, are mounted directly to the door, enhancing stability. Velocity mode takes inspiration from Cadillac’s Blackwing track-proven engineering, incorporating a “Ghost Car” function on the HUD screen. This feature guides drivers through a competitive driving course, allowing them to track and improve their lap times, and access information about road conditions and vehicle settings.

The Opulent Velocity’s Gilded Pearl exterior features a dramatic, low-slung profile, highlighted by distinct butterfly doors, Cadillac’s vertical lighting signature, and a 3D illuminated grille.

The interior features a seamless flow of draped surfaces, a 3D information-enabled widescreen display, and a racing-inspired Y-shaped steering wheel. Take note of the metallic dark blue “Selene” and metal brush finishes and the integration of 3D printing technology.

The Cadillac Opulent Velocity Concept Hypercar approaches the goal line of creating a striking and functional hypercar. With its dual focus on luxury and performance, this concept car outlines the possibilities of what an all-electric vehicle can be.
