2016 Cadillac ELR consumer reviews

I just got my 2016 ELR with performance package and ACC, this car is amazing, nice quiet smooth friendly environment ride, and the look of the car is just stoning. Every day reading the manual I discover a new exiting feature like the "Competitive Driving Mode" which is even better performing than the Sport mode, so the car has five driving modes. The professionals auto reviewers are way way way off about this car when providing negative marks on it

I think the car does exactly what it is supposed to. It allows road trips without having to find charging stations. Although the generator can be loud and obnoxious, it is well worth it.

Very nice car with good power on electric motor (didn't get to experience the gas engine. Beautiful interior with carbon, alcantara and leather trim. Limited back seat space for tall people and a smallish trunk. I missed knobs on the infotainment system but the sound from the sound system was very good. Quite ride and very good brakes. Limited exterior color availability from used cars. Wish Cadillac still made this car!

The car is Awesome, it is as fun to drive as it is good looking, this is what the Chevy Volt Concept was supposed to be. It is essentially a Gen1 Volt powertrain with a Cadillac body, suspension, interior and wheels. Rolls on 20's with much wider tires. If you commute <40 miles a day you will rarely use any gas, just plug in the ELR when you get home and in a few hours you are ready to roll for another 40 miles of clean silent driving.

ELR is amazing! It’s electric range is 35-40, and then automatically switches to gas and adds driving range upto another 300 miles. And The warrantee is 100,000 miles on battery and drive train. It’s the most comfortable, smooth and quiet car I’ve ever drove. Just amazing

Nice car, ride has different mode, never worry when battery dies, engine take over. Basically has two fuel guages, just dont let both of they go empty!

since this car came out as a prototype I fell in love with him, his lines and all his technological advances. I own two of them one in black and the other in silver in addition to a cadillac cts, the handle them is a delight and its acceleration is not as shown in videos on YouTube, it is also the only vehicle that is the same as the original prototype plus there are only Approximately 2,000 of them around the world. I'm a profession mechanic and I can guarantee you that this is a car that when you go on the street you turn heads. I have seen people taking pictures with my car in the parking lots and they even ask me if it is 2019, because they had never seen it before. This car with its refined lines and design will remain for a long time looking like a newly purchased car.

I get very good mileage. I can go without charging and get.. 33 to 35 mpg. I'm up on the empg or what ever, but in town I canf go weeks witnout getting gas. forgive the spelling.

I love the Tesla and it is definitely my second choice after the ELR. I think a used Cadillac ELR is a better purchase than a used Tesla for these 5 reasons 1) Tesla's have held their value so you can now get an ELR for a lot less money than a Tesla. You get more car for your money with the ELR. 2) I do 95% of my driving on electric alone. On the rare occasion I drive a long road trip, I run on gas. The Tesla requires stopping and waiting for recharge. 3) Tesla doesn't allow you to buy any parts and doesn't always allow other mechanics than their own to work on the cars. 4) Though taste is subjective, I think the interior on the ELR is much nicer than the Telsa interior. It has much nicer materials, lots of wood trim and leather. The minimalist interior of the Tesla is cool now since it's new, but after the newness wears off, it will just look plain and stark. 5) The large screen on the Tesla is cool, but I like actual buttons and knobs of the ELR much better than having to use the touch screen to do everything like in the Tesla. It's dangerous to have your eyes leave the road which a touch screen requires.

The ride is fabulous! Comfortable, smooth, classy. Best car I've ever owned. Love that it's electric. Does have a 9 gal gas tank. Gas is so efficient. I love the pick up on it too!
