The Eldorado was radically redesigned in 1967, becoming the brands first entry to capitalize on the era's burgeoning personal luxury car market. [4] Promoted as a "personal" Cadillac, it shared the E-body with the second-generation Buick Riviera and the Oldsmobile Toronado, which had been introduced the previous year.[4] To enhance its distinctiveness, Cadillac adopted the Toronado's front-wheel drive Unified Powerplant Package, adapted to a standard Cadillac 429 V8 coupled to a Turbo-Hydramatic 425 automatic transmission. Based on the Turbo-Hydramatic 400, the THM425 placed the torque converter next to the planetary gearbox, which it drove through a metal, motorcycle-style roller chain.[4] Disc brakes were optional, and new standard safety equipment included an energy absorbing steering column and generously padded instrument panel.[35] The Unified Powerplant Package was later shared with the GMC Motorhome starting in 1972. The 1967 Eldorado was a great departure from previous generations, which were trim variations of Cadillac's De Ville and Series 62, the exceptions being the rare 1953 model, and the rare 1957-60 Eldorado Brougham.[1] Its crisp styling, initiated by GM styling chief Bill Mitchell, was distinctive and unique, more angular than the streamlined Riviera and Toronado. The rear end was inspired by the GM-X Stiletto concept car.[36] This was the only production Cadillac to be equipped with concealed headlights behind vacuum operated doors.[1] 1970 Cadillac Eldorado (rear) 1970 Cadillac Eldorado (front) Performance was 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) in less than nine seconds and a top speed of 120 mph (192 km/h). Roadability and handling were highly praised by contemporaneous reviews, and sales were excellent despite high list prices. Its sales of 17,930 units,[37] nearly three times the previous Eldorado high, helped give Cadillac its best year ever.[38] In 1968, the Eldorado received Cadillac's new 375 hp (280 kW) (SAE gross) 472 cu in (7.7 L) V8, and disc brakes became standard. Only slight exterior changes were made to comply with new federal safety legislation. Sales set another record at 24,528, with Eldorados accounting for nearly 11% of all Cadillacs sold. In 1969 hidden headlamps were eliminated, a halo vinyl roof was available as an option, as was a rim-blow steering wheel - the only year Cadillac offered it. In 1970 the Eldorado introduced the new 500 cu in (8.2 L) V8 engine,[1] Cadillac's largest-ever production V8, rated SAE gross 400 hp (298 kW) and 550 lbâ‹…ft (746 Nâ‹…m), which would remain exclusive until it became standard on all full size Cadillacs in the 1975 model year. A power sunroof became an available option
