2014 ELR Off-Lease Steal

While I did get an ELR with 42,000 miles, it also came with a $57,300 discount! Should also be noted that the gas motor currently has only about 9000 miles on it so this vehicle should easily surpass 250,000 combined miles as long as the electric motor is as good as they seem to be. Wonderful car for a commute of 10-15 miles to work each day. Can also plug in while at work and still run errands after work without worrying about running out of charge. Have been going about 4 months and 4000 miles on each tank of gas. The range does drop from 40 to 30 miles in the winter time and the vehicle does run the gas engine when it is cold outside to maintain winter HVAC needs. Would be nice if the winter engine use settings could be adjusted. Overall a great car for someone who doesn't need a back seat for anything more than emergency use.

The Ultimate Commuter Car

The ELR makes my commute so much nicer. It is quiet, it is smooth, it has an amazing sound system, and it's economical. Without too much effort, I can make my 40 mile round trip on electric only. This isn't a fun car you want to rip up mountain roads in; that's not what it's designed to do. It's designed to cart you around town in a quiet, luxurious cocoon that is still responsive and fun to drive. Having the engine backup is vital. There's no way I could do an EV with less than 100 miles of range without being constantly paranoid that I'd run out of juice. The ELR solves that problem. You can milk the batteries for all they've got, then the motor kicks in to keep you going.

Awseome Cadiallac ELR

The 2014 Cadillac is a joy to drive. it has all the features you would expect in a luxury car and also the responsiveness of a sports car. This vehicle is well engineered. The only negative is it takes over twelve hours to fully recharge the electric battery unless you have the upgraded charging unit.

Awesome value used

Super mpg! Ghostly quiet. This car is a piece of bold American art. Original retail price was too high but second hand a steal. Already becoming a collectors target. Way ahead of its time. Check out the original commercial on YouTube.

This vehicle is without doubt the finest one I have ever owned. And it goes without saying, it is the most beautiful.
