Images of a possible successor to the Cadillac XLR were released with a distinctive and more modern look that seeks to capture various looks. The Cadillac XLR has been a sports car derived from the Corvette C6 that has served its purpose in previous years.
Now and thanks to this render, he seeks to mix the brand’s characteristic luxury with the performance and bestial appearance of the eighth generation of the Chevrolet classic.
For this, its designer takes as a basis the lines of the sports car but includes the airs of Cadillac design with stretched headlights and the thin line of LEDs towards the lower area of the bumper.

The XLR rims are chrome-plated and show a distinctive finish on the small side windows.
Possibly its interior raises the levels of comfort and technology implemented, leaving aside the purely sports for something more sumptuous already characteristic in Cadillac.
Mechanically it could hide the 6.2-liter V8 central engine that generates some 495 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque.
We will have to wait to find out if this work on the Corvette C8 can really arouse the interest of Cadillac, to return to have among its ranks a pure-breed sports car. )
