Cadillac is set to debut its ELR extended-range electric luxury two-door coupe at the NAIAS in Detroit in January, and has teased the upcoming car via a silhouette sketch. Not that there’s much to hide, really – the vehicle is the production version of the Converj concept revealed at the 2009 edition of the show.
The ELR will advance the design theme of the Converj, and will feature a Voltec electric propulsion system as seen on the Volt, with core components being a T-shaped lithium-ion battery, an electric drive motor and a four-cylinder engine-generator.
No details on the GM Delta II platform-based vehicle, but that on the Converj (seen in the second pix above), which touts an all-electric range of 64 km and a 160 km/h top speed as well as a recharge time of three hours (via a 240-volt outlet), should be a good indicator.
Production is scheduled to begin in late 2013 at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly plant. The ELR will be the first two-door car built at the plant since the 1999 Eldorado.
