How it scores for you10 scores
A 40-mile plug-in coupe with concept-car looks that sells style over substance - vestigial rear seats and severe depreciation included.
Not enough recall data to judge yet, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road. Adjusted +2 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $2,500 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 56% of cars we track.
10.5 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 40% of other coupes we track.
Vestigial rear seats and a 10.5 cu ft trunk; strictly a 2+2 style statement.
2016's power bump helped, but Volt underpinnings and 233 hp make it brisk-ish, not sporting.
40-mile plug-in range was genuinely advanced for 2016, though saddled with the disliked CUE interface.
Quiet EV-first operation and a plush front cabin; ride is composed but the coupe body limits ergonomics.
Luxury brands like Cadillac tend to lose value faster than average.
No published tow rating; front- or rear-wheel drive only.
