Cadillac Celestiq Convertible Rendered As Lavish Drop-Top

The real-life Cadillac Celestiq exists only as an ultra-luxury sedan, but Cadillac Society couldn’t help but wonder how it would look like in other form factors. We’ve already given it the traditional three-box sedan treatment, rendering an imaginary version of the Celestiq without its fastback-like rear end. With that out of the way, we’ve now become curious about what a hypothetical Celestiq could look like if it were offered as a convertible, and the results are just as head-turning as one might expect from an ultra-luxury drop-top.

Production-intent 2024 Cadillac Celestiq

Our hypothetical Cadillac Celestiq convertible would certainly be a soft-top, as a hard top would add a substantial amount of weight, the worst enemy of EVs. We’ve kept the front fascia intact, preserving its unique horizontal and vertical lighting elements, along with its chevron-shaped front “grille” embedded with a unique LED lighting display. We’ve also treated it to a cream-colored exterior hue, a luxurious color befitting of almost any luxury convertible.

Where our make-believe Cadillac Celestiq convertible really differs from the real thing, however, is evident from the side, starting with the wheelbase. We’ve shortened the vehicle, removing the rear doors completely while stretching the front doors to allow for ease of entrance and exit to and from the rear seats.

Now, we imagine that since we cut the wheelbase down, the battery pack for this particular model would be smaller than that of the regular-length production model. We’ve also given the windshield a faster rake for a more sporty aesthetic.

Moving around to the rear, we’ve removed the C-pillar, necessitating a reconfiguration of the taillights to align with the vehicle’s decklid while maintaining the familiar Celestiq lighting strip signatures. We’ve also given our hypothetical Celestiq drop-top a sportier diffuser than the production sedan.

Now, while the Cadillac Celestiq will be able to be customizable right down to even the most minute details, the luxury marque hasn’t release plans to offer it in convertible form. With that in mind, we want to know what you think – should the Celestiq be offered in a cabriolet configuration? Let us know your thoughts by voting in the poll below.
