Like normal... the photos are not full resolution so zooming in nets pretty bad results.


First button on left looks like traction “Off”.

Anyone think this is a vert? No quarter glass and looks to have vertical rear glass?

I wonder if there is an "AFM OFF" button?

Can anyone tell what the buttons just ahead of the rotary controller thing are? Also, what's it say on the chrome strip on top of the rotary control palm rest?
The chrome strip says "mode". It's for the drive mode selector.

You are correct, I see it now in the fuzzy pic now that you've pointed it out. Looked like ON to me!

If the Jalopnik specs are verified next week, we will have six total colors for the interior, including Adrenaline, a Spice Red replacement (called Morello that is lively and beautiful — see Cadillac 2018 special models), Natural (which is what I think we are seeing here), a two color Adrenaline/black, another two color Twilight blue/Tension blue, and Sky Cool Gray).

Kalahari looks like peanut butter to me... they tired to do 'Ferrari Tan' and missed the mark just a little. I think 'Natural' will be what more folks are looking for in that type of color. Just my $0.02. Can't wait to see if adrenaline red is "all red".

I’ve had the opinion the Info Screen is pan and tilt, maybe cubby hole storage gone too. This pic gives a little better look so maybe one or both are true. But here is the thing, to me the screen looks adjusted to its lowest position probably to hide some details along the back.

I just noticed that it appears the sharp corner on the left side of the C7 lower dash is gone! Hooray for all talk folks getting in/out of the car!

The tall "wall" is to prevent undocumented people in the passenger seat from getting to the drivers seat.

From what can be seen it looks pretty good except for the ugly steering wheel. Hopefully, the later versions will have a nicer one.

I actually like it... appears your supposed to grip it with your hands fully above the 'stalks' based on the shape of the wheel itself. This will allow unfettered access to the paddles and the best view of the digital display screen.

I remember an Ask Tadge thread where he said the steering wheel size and shape were largely dictated by gauge cluster visibility.

I'm sure functionally it will be great. One more thing that needs to grow on me like mold.

I agree it's a better 9 & 3 wheel than the current design.
