Cadillac teased a new concept car at the weekend at Pebble Beach to be unveiled in the steel at an unnamed American auto show early next year. We'll see you on the GM stand in Detroit then.

The Biome was produced as part of the Los Angeles Design Challenge, taking part alongside the 2010 LA auto show.
