The 2024 Cadillac Celestiq is poised to catapult the luxury marque to the upper echelon of the luxury market segment, putting Cadillac on the same level as Rolls Royce and Bentley. To this end, the upcoming uber-luxurious Celestiq will be cutting no corners, and we’ve just learned that the luxury sedan will feature heated, vented and massaging seats for all four passengers.
Speaking to SAE Media, program engineering manager Jeremy Loveday provided further details on the Celestiq’s interior features, including the seats. All four seats will be 20-way adjustable, heated, ventilated and cooled, and will incorporate a massaging feature as well as a position memory feature.
“In a lot of luxury cars, you have to sit in the back seat to get the best seat in the house,” Loveday was quoted as saying. “We wanted all four of Celestiq’s seats to be top notch – 20-way adjustable with heat, vent, cool, massage and memory in all four places. But we recognized the challenge of getting the body structure to ‘mold’ around the battery and the occupants.”
As a reminder, the Cadillac Celestiq will serve as Cadillac’s flagship vehicle, and offers prospective buyers the highest level of customization. Stylistically, the Celestiq is intended to represent the avant-garde, with bold design themes throughout.
This bold design scheme continues into the interior, with hand-crafted trim pieces found throughout the cabin. A 55-inch center screen is one of five high-definition displays in the vehicle, while rear-seat passengers have their own advanced 12.6-inch-diagonal displays. Meanwhile, above the occupants’ heads sits an all-glass roof panel using Suspended Particle Device (SPD) to allow variable transmission of sunlight into the cabin.
As for powertrain specifications, the Cadillac Celestiq rides on GM’s BEV3 platform and uses a 111-kWh Ultium battery pack to power an advanced AWD system. Total output is a GM-estimated 600 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque. Hand assembly is expected to begin in December 2023 at the GM Warren Tech Center in Warren, Michigan. Availability will be by waitlist only.

imo, cadillac needs heated, vented, and massaging seats on all of its top models, on at least 4 of the seats.
Sounds nice, to bad GM can’t take care of there customers that already bought new vehicles like myself… I bought a new 2022 gmc Sierra SLT limited… it been just about a year of owning it and I’m still missing items such as heated/vented seats, heated steering wheel, front and back park sensors! All to be retro fit in my truck sometime. I think it’s ridiculous that it’s been almost a year and I still don’t have these thing! The truck was $70,000… but yet GM will build high end vehicles-Denali, Cadillac and all the cips are offered in them models…it’s crap seeing there are 100’s of 1000’s of people that already committed to GM and bought a vehicle… GM should be taking care of them people first… I know I’m only one person but moving foreword I will not be buying a GM vehicle again! Iv always been GM Loyal, I was raised that way! I normally buy a new truck every 3-4 years. I’ll be looking Into Toyota or ram next…good luck everyone!
Hey, Brent have you called your Chevy dealerships service department and ask about the heated seat module. I did, now my heated seats on my 2022 Chevy Silverado LT are going to be put in Tuesday 1/10/23. I would have never got them put in if I hadn’t called. Just had my truck in for a oil change and they never brought it up. This is the GM Program #12354520 , issued September 16,2022. Hope this helps some??
He literally posts that whole thing on every other story.
I’m beginning to think Brent would prefer to complain about it here rather than get it fixed OR he’s making it all up. Either way, posting it here is a waste of time.
Kinda like constantly complaining about what everyone else says right? That’s a waste of time to.
Or maybe he’s a legitimately unhappy customer over GM’s nonsense and you can’t handle that…
Brent: Traitor!
Brent, the CELESTIQ will be built 400-500 annually compared to 10K plus monthly volume of your vehicle so it is apples to oranges in comparison. Also the CELESTIQ will be in production starting in December this year where hopefully supplier restraints for parts for all makes and models should be eased by that time.
For the price they should give you a chauffeur too!
Great looking car, what a shame its EV.
Almost Cadillac almost. Not sure what meth your engineers were doing when the got the the back of the car were their some old Pontiac Aztec tailgates you needed to get rid of? Can I please come help you build a car people would actually want? Although you did start listening about getting back on par with Bentley and rolls I said that ten years ago. You’ll get there.
Everyone gets a massage seat, but nobody can get a steering wheel on the right hand side, lol.
Heated and vibrating seats all round a massage parlour and sauna on wheels at least all of the occupants of the car will be relaxed and asleep when they have the inevitable accident. Can anyone tell me why most new American cars and trucks are so damn ugly
And a reminder to drivers of EV / BEV vehicles, each of the electrically run features sucks range out of your drive. Heated/Ventilated/Massaging seats reduce range by 10 to 30% based on ambient temperature. If you’re driving to ski resort, winter temps suck up to 40% of battery.
Better make sure your EV has Level 3 ‘Fast Charge’ capability!
Whatever the cost of an Extended Warranty is you shouldn’t buy the car without it!
Styling so different but love it! Needs a shorter wheelbase notchback 60 Special type vehicle (Seville) and a Fleetwood 75 limousine. with three row seating. round out the foursome with a “personal Eldorado” to compliment the 60 Special Seville.
