The over-$300,000 Celestiq marks Cadillac's debut into the super-premium area dominated by Rolls-Royce and Bentley, a segment Cadillac has not occupied since the 1930s, when it constructed V-16 behemoths.

The Celestiq has a powerful presence in person, with its length emphasised by the smooth slope of the rear hatchback and 23-inch wheels producing a grounded posture.

The interior feels authentically Cadillac, with the full-width screen design on the dashboard resembling that of the future electric Escalade iQ.

Each rear passenger has access to a 12.6-inch screen positioned on the back of the front seats, which has a sharp quality and a simple interface. The screens can display video material, connect to the internet, and operate the audio system.

There is also a menu that displays vehicle information such as speed, range, efficiency, and how much electricity each system in the car uses. The prototype vehicle's screen did not have all of its functions working, but it seemed responsive.

The panorama glass roof, which has 5 degrees of electrochromic tinting in four unique parts for each passenger, lights up in the form of stripes at night, giving off a futurist vibe.

Initial deliveries of the Celestiq are slated to start in the fourth quarter of this year, with Cadillac's Artisan Centre capable of producing approximately 400 highly customized Celestiqs every year.
