Cadillac ELR luxury Electric Vehicle class

                
Inside the flashy clothes and luxury 2014 Cadillac ELR is the "guts" of the Chevrolet Volt electric car. This is probably a sign that GM was quick to grab the first position in the segment of luxury electric vehicles.
 Inheriting almost completely beautiful appearance design of the Cadillac Converj concept car was also on display in this exhibition four years ago, the 2014 Cadillac ELR is low and wide shape is like the Lamborghini Gallardo sports coupe so. Some details bodywork was adjusted to ELR becomes more realistic than the concept to be produced and sold on the market late 2013 but stylish LED system is retained as before.
 
The interior of the ELR apparent elegance and modern especially with natural leather, carbon fiber and the beautiful wood-paneled hem. Also the car is equipped with electronic control systems, infotainment with 10 speaker Bose stereo.
 
Cadillac ELR is almost common platform of the Volt electric vehicle with the same volume of 288 li-ion battery cell capacity 16.5 kWh - two electric motors and a gasoline engine 4-cylinder 1.4L capacity machine role development. But its control system was programmed to generate power to 207 horsepower and 407Nm traction, while the Volt only 149 horsepower.
 
With the increase this capacity to help GM says the car accelerates 0-100km / h in 8 seconds duration, but heavier than the Cadillac ELR power source so this will eat up more power than the Volt. It can only move 56km when fully charged, less than the Volt's 61km. If the total distance when combined with gasoline engines, ELR only run 480km while Volt runs over 600km. The GM said that this difference will not affect the choice of car buying decisions of customers compared to other advantages in the design and operation of the Cadillac ELR. But the fact is that they want to refer to vehicle factors "to" the ELR.
 
Beautifully designed, luxurious interior and new drivers will experience is the factor customer appeal, but the success of the Cadillac ELR take "guts" Chevy still need to have time to verify. Cadillac will sell ELR luxury electric car to market later this year for around $ 60,000.
