Anyone looking for a poorly-lit teaser of the Cadillac ELR is in luck! Cadillac just released this image in advance of the car’s debut at NAIAS in a few weeks. In addition to the CUE system, the ELR will also get a bigger battery pack and a more powerful motor to help differentiate itself from its plebian sibling, the Chevrolet Volt.

I still think this is a poor idea, and I'm surprised GM insists on pursuing it. The Volt is a money loser, and so will this be. The ELR is out of step with Cadillac's current image, and it risks becoming another Cimarron. I don't think Cadillac buyers are the type willing to fool around with charging cables in order to get more than 32 mpg from their car.
Backwards in the windtunnel?
Where's the scroll wheel?
The efficiency of electric motors is wonderful. I would like to see this car with a Tesla Model S motor and a water cooled 500cc Honda MC engine.
