Cadillac Eldorado Convertible.

Just like with the Cadillac Eldorado illustration I posted a few days ago, all I have to say is: why not…

We already know Cadillac is indeed working on 2 new EV sedans based on an updated version of the Ultium platform. A platform designed for a mid-sized sedan would make a great start for a large 4-seater coupe or convertible. And of course, it would have to be large and be called Eldorado. Nothing ending with “IQ”.

I realize this would be even more of a niche market than the previously posted Eldorado Coupe illustration. If the coupe market isn’t healthy these days, the convertible market is almost dead. Although Mercedes still decided to offer a convertible version of their new CLE Coupe, and it looks really good.

The last big luxury convertible I can think of the the previous generation Mercedes S-Class convertible, based on the stunning coupe design. On sale from late 2014 to 2020.

With a possible new Eldorado coupe and convertible, Cadillac would have to abandon their crazy idea of making $ 300,000 cars like the new Celestiq. A ridiculous idea that will seem even crazier a few years from now. A new Eldorado convertible should cost a bit less than its competition, which is getting pretty rare these days. Like the $106 000 Lexus SC Convertible. Or the $ 101,000 BMW 8 series convertible. And it should be roomier than both of these cars. There should be plenty of space for at least 4 adults.

There is very little chance of seeing something like this. Or even any Cadillac convertible. And probably zero chance they’ll name anything Eldorado again…
