Sweet looking EV

I saw one on the road close to the test track. It was so cool looking. It was black and slick. Like Batman should be driving it, well maybe Alfred....

That's nice. The Cadillac Lyriq EV has gotten very good reviews and is said to be a quiet, smooth-ass ride. This one looks a little like it from the front but sportier.

I have driven two EVs so far, a Tesla that I rented this weekend, and a Kia EV6. The EV6 was far more fun to drive. I hated the Tesla TBH. It had all kinds of little quirks, like the turn signal sticking all the time, that drove me absolutely nuts.

they are certainly doing a good job of making EVs look like cars i would want to drive.

even the EV Mustang has grown on me.

I think the Ionic5 is pretty clean looking too

It looks like Cadillac finally came out with a station wagon.

The Ioniq 5 and Ev6 share the same engine, battery and basic technology. The Ioniq 6 also uses it. Of the 3 I like the Ioniq 5's looks the best, but they are all pretty interesting cars. The Koreans are challenging Tesla in a big way.

I see Cadillac station wagons all the time, have since I was a kid. They're usually black.

Part of what you see with the EV designs is a strong impact from aerodynamics, because range is still a struggle for these vehicles with current battery technology. So everyone is going to some kind of half teardrop design to maximize range and try to hit 300 miles.

I have never seen one, and upon a little search, I stand corrected.

I always see a line of cars behind them with their flashers on...

In the black color it takes on a different look. I don't care for that color so much.

Some with flags too

I have been seeing Chevy nameplates on these. Going to make a more affordable version I see.

I have known a number of people who have given up on the Cadillac brand. It all centered around quality control.
Just endless issues ...the question is will it carry over to the EV side.

More affordable doesn't mean it IS affordable

I am also doubting you have seen it with the Chevy badge on it

Sure. I see all kinds of vehicles roaming the streets. Not hard in my neck of woods.

I have seen a lot of EVs popping up. The Lucid air can do 0-60 in 1.89 seconds
Top speed of 205
And range of 500 miles
I am guessing not all at once
