The most expensive Cadillac ever will be on display at the Detroit auto show on Friday.
The show car version of the Cadillac Celestiq is expected to cost $300,000 or more when it goes into production later in the century. The vehicle is called an all-electric flagship sedan.
It marks a pivot for Cadillac into hand-built vehicles, which are typically reserved for high-end sports cars and ultra-luxury vehicles. By the end of the decade, Cadillac wants to offer EV's.

Designers drew inspiration from well-known cars such as the V-16 powered "coaches" of the era before World War II, and the hand-built 1957 Eldorado Brougham.
