Customers can order their vehicles now with delivery expected in March 2014.
Cadillac and Saks Fifth Avenue will offer a limited edition 2014 ELR this year in the Saks Holiday Catalog. The so-called 2014 Saks Fifth Avenue Special Edition is limited to 100 electric vehicles with a White Diamond exterior paint color only available with this package.
Buyers can choose between a Jet Black and Light Cashmere interior for the $89,500 coupe, which includes a $995 destination charge. Also included is an upgraded 240-volt charging station with professional installation and applicable permits.
Customers can order their vehicles now with delivery expected in March 2014. Cadillac says that owners of this Saks Fifth ELR will also have their own ELR Concierge Representatives, an additional point of contact beyond the customer’s Cadillac dealer for information on battery care, home charging, service scheduling, and news and updates by calling 1-855-INFO-ELR (1-855-463-6357).
“Our partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue embraces the brand’s sharp eyes for aesthetics, and puts the all-new 2014 ELR and the Cadillac brand front and center with buyers this holiday season,” said Melody Lee, Cadillac director of brand reputation strategy.
