Cadillac’s most exciting new concept yet, the futuristic Converj was created with beauty in mind. Building on the Chevrolet Volt, GM is equipping the Converj with a more advanced version of the Volt’s E-REV system called Voltec. This includes a 120-kW (161 hp) electric motor, powered by a 16-kWh, T-shaped battery pack, and is recharged via a four-cylinder range-extending engine. Producing 273 lb.-ft of torque, the top speed of the Converj is 100 mph.Fully powered by its electric motor, the front-wheel drive Converj can travel up to 40 miles on electricity alone before the engine is needed to generate more electrical energy. The batteries can also be fully recharged in eight hours from a regular 110-volt household outlet. Riding on 21 in. (front) and 22 in. (rear) wheels with a suspension system featuring GM’s Magnetic Ride Control adjustable shocks, as well as an all-glass roof and cameras in place of side mirrors, the Converj concept is surely something of beauty.
