Cadillac had never really dabbled in cars at that price point before. However, those rumors are true, as the Celestiq will carry a *starting* price of $340,000. Cadillac global chief marketing officer Melissa Grady Dias took to *[LinkedIn ]()*earlier in the week to not only announce its price but that each car will be heavily customizable, much like a Rolls or Bentley. "Since its introduction, we’ve seen extremely high demand for Celestiq. Clients who begin this bespoke journey can personalize their Celestiq and make it a true reflection of their personality—the possibilities are endless. The bespoke spirit of Celestiq will be determined by the client’s level of curation, but the blank canvas will start at approximately $340,000 MSRP," Dias said. ![]() **Cadillac Celestiq interior** Customers will be guided through their buying process by their Celestiq-certified dealer of choice and they'll be able to build and customize their car. It's unknown just how deep the customization will go and if it will rival brands like Rolls-Royce and Bentley, who will cut down a tree in your backyard and use it for trim if you'd like. Without being able to drive, or even sit in, the Celestiq just yet, it's hard to tell if it's going to measure up to the standard of car that customers are used to at that price point. However, on paper, it certainly stacks up. Its[ 111-kilowatt-hour battery]() is claimed to provide 300 miles of range, which is more than the new[ Rolls-Royce Spectre's]() 102-kilowatt-hour battery and EPA-estimated 260-mile range. It also has 680 horsepower, which makes it good for 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds, besting the Spectre's 577 horsepower and 4.4 seconds, respectively. ![]() *There are very few visible sensors on the front of the Celestiq. *Cadillac** The Cadillac Celestiq will be hand-built at GM's Technical Center in Warren, Michigan. In the photo accompanying Dias' post, you can see some of the potential paint, interior, and trim options Cadillac could offer and they do look pretty funky and interesting. But even more interesting will be seeing a "Hand Built in Michigan" plaque in the door sill of a $340,000 electric luxury car. *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
