First Take

The sleekly raked ELR is the Cadillac version of the Chevrolet Volt. Like the Volt, the ELR's plug-in electric/gasoline powertrain allows it to run on electricity alone for up to 37 miles before resorting to the 1.4-liter four-cylinder to extend the range up to 340 miles. Chrome, nicely-stitched leather, wood trim, and carbon fiber accents create a warm, luxurious interior, but visibility is wanting. A full suite of advanced safety alert systems, including forward-collision, blind-spot, and cross-traffic alert is available. The instrument panel features the CUE infotainment system, which we have found distracting and frustrating. Starting price is $75,000 before the tax credit.

In most cases, automotive warranties are based on the vehicle identification number (VIN), and the warranty will be valid regardless of ownership. The dealership can tell you exactly how much warranty is left.
