[VIDEO] Frankfurt: Cadillac Ciel Concept revealed


After it was officially presented during the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California, Cadillac decided to bring its Ciel Concept to an European audience at the Frankfurt Motor Show, representing the best of American design in the backyard of German automakers.
The Ciel is definitely a hot car and if Al Capone would still be alive he would have brought his crew and machine gun to Frankfurt just to steal it but considering the fact that those times are over expect to see it in rappers’ videos over-seas.
Cadillac says that the Ciel Concept is powered by a 3.5 liter, twin-turbo, V6 engine, delivering 425 horsepower and 583 Nm of torque (430 lb-ft), mated to a hybrid transmission powering the all-wheel drive system, making it quite appealing in European’s eyes.
Being 300 mm longer than the Cadillac CTS, the automaker says that the Ciel (French for Sky) was inspired by Highway 1 in California, which is the coastal highway that threads the Golden State from top to bottom.
