The 2009 model will take the last lap for the line of Cadillac XLR line after being on the market for the last six years. General Motors takes the last orders that will go to its last production batch this spring.
The XLR uses the DNA of Chevrolet’s Corvette and coupled it with the Northstar overhead cam power plants of the Cadillac instead of the pushrod motors of the Corvette.
The XLR traces its development from the Evoq, the Cadillac concept vehicle which served as basis for the current design theme of the company’s production cars.
The last Cadillac XLR will come in a platinum and V-Series trims. General Motors will not be offering a special package for the last release of the XLR.
