I would be really surprised if this wasn't on Alpha. Maybe it's like Alpha 2 or something? I just see a lot of Camaro there...

Maybe they uglified the new Camaro to help bolster CT5 sales.
Visible differences: Cadillac has a more fast back (faster back?), no swoop above the rear wheels. a smaller front spoiler, different door indentation, and a different hofmeister kink type thing. There’s also the suggestion of a frameless door. The grille looks more straight up and down. The rear overhang has more slope as well.

More interesting is that coupe in the background of the second photo, which looks an awful lot like the Buick Avista concept to my eye.

The question is, what’s it doing in a Cadillac design studio? Perhaps GM plans to bring the Avista to life as a Cadillac? Probably a smart move.
