Cadillac has once again pushed the boundaries of luxury performance, unveiling the Elevated Velocity Crossover Concept—an all-electric, high-performance marvel that is as comfortable navigating downtown boulevards as it is conquering the open desert. Sleek, bold, and brimming with innovation, this 2+2 crossover fuses the adrenaline of Cadillac’s V-Series heritage with the limitless possibilities of electric mobility.

The Future of Ultra-Luxury Performance

In a world where the electric luxury crossover segment is accelerating fast, Cadillac is setting the pace. Following the introduction of the LYRIQ-V and OPTIQ-V, the Elevated Velocity Concept hints at what tomorrow’s Cadillac performance machines might look—and feel—like.

This isn’t just about speed. It’s about dual identities: a sanctuary of refined comfort inside, and a rugged, performance-tuned powerhouse outside. Imagine driving from a black-tie gala to a sand dune rally without missing a beat—Cadillac designed this vehicle for exactly that.

Tech That Feels Like Magic

The Elevated Velocity Concept comes alive with three signature experience modes:

Welcome Mode: As you approach, the crossover greets you with soft white lighting, gull-wing doors rising in a cinematic flourish, and an interior welcome animation reminiscent of shifting desert sands.

Elevate Mode: Your personal wellness retreat on wheels—pedals and steering wheel retract, cabin lighting turns to soothing red, infrared seatback illumination promotes recovery, and synchronized lighting guides your breathing.

Velocity Mode: A pure driver’s cockpit—cool white tones, precision AR navigation, and real-time performance metrics displayed front and center.

These modes aren’t just features; they’re experiences, designed to make every journey—whether a serene cruise or a spirited sprint—uniquely Cadillac. 

Performance Without Boundaries

Riding on 24-inch wheels with selectable driving modes, the Elevated Velocity is just as confident on a glass-smooth highway as it is in a sandstorm. Choose e-Velocity Mode for razor-sharp on-road driving, Terra Mode for peak off-road performance, or Sand Vision to cut through blinding desert conditions. An innovative Elements Defy system even shakes off dust and debris to keep the exterior pristine. 

Exterior Drama, Interior Elegance

With a Vapor Blue body accented by glacial undertones, a fiery red interior, and Cadillac’s reimagined lighting choreography, this crossover is a showstopper. The gull-wing doors not only make a statement—they make getting in and out effortless. Every detail, from flax-fiber wheels to precision patterning, tells a story of power, elegance, and craftsmanship.

Inside, deep Morello Red Nappa leather, Cerise performance fabric, and Garnet boucle create an atmosphere of movement and energy. Wellness is woven into the design, with cabin filtration, climate optimization, air purification, fragrance systems, and even red light therapy for recovery after high-energy adventures.

Luxury with a Pulse

The Elevated Velocity doesn’t just move—it inspires movement. From the bespoke polo set in the rear cargo compartment to the precision-crafted details in every surface, Cadillac has created a concept that turns the everyday drive into an extraordinary event.
