Electric goes American gangster with Cadillac ELR

What happens when you bolt a Chevvy Volt onto a coupe with chiseled looks? You get the Cadillac ELR.

Stemming from the company’s Converj concept, unveiled at the 2009 Detroit Motor Show, the ELR does feature a couple of tweaks from the Volt.

For one, it’s faster: Cadillac says it will do nought to 100kph in just over eight seconds, thanks largely to electric-drive system. Underneath everything else is pretty much the same.

What that means though is that the ELR has less range in electric mode than the Volt and once the juice runs out, you’ll have to rely on its 1.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine.

Gadget-wise, you won’t be left in the dark either. Navigation is standard on the 2014 Cadillac ELR and accessible through a large, eight-inch, full-color capacitive-touch screen in the center of the instrument panel.
