The 2002 Cadillac Cien was a mid-engine concept car created by Cadillac to celebrate its 100th anniversary.
Design: Designed by Simon Cox, the Cien boasted sharp, angular lines that were a significant departure from Cadillac's traditional styling. It featured a lightweight composite body over a structural aluminum space frame.
Engine: The heart of the Cien was its revolutionary 7.5-liter V12 engine, dubbed the "Northstar XV12". This engine featured cylinder deactivation technology, allowing it to run on fewer cylinders to improve fuel economy when full power wasn't needed. It was designed to produce 750 horsepower and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Technology: The Cien was packed with advanced technology for its time, including a heads-up display, night vision, and stability control. It also had features like a retractable rear spoiler and side view cameras instead of traditional mirrors.
Production: The Cadillac Cien remained purely a concept car and was never put into production. Despite generating excitement and showcasing Cadillac's engineering capabilities, its high development costs and uncertain market demand made mass production impractical.
Appearances: The Cien made notable appearances in the 2005 film The Island and the video game Gran Turismo 4.
