It is likely to contain information of a speculative nature, but such speculation is usually sourced from the automotive news media, the automaker's media press releases, or other news sources. Concept cars, or similar evolutionary vehicles based on them, may never see production. The content and specifications for those selected for continuation may change significantly as the concept evolves, or as production nears if it is launched, and as more information becomes available. Concept automobiles, and their derivatives if any, are subject to delays or cancellation by the automaker.

The Cadillac Debutante was exhibited at the Chicago Auto Show as a concept car in 1950. The interior is upholstered in leopard skin, has a 24-karat gold intrument panels, and 24-karat gold fittings. At $35,000, it was claimed to be Cadillac most luxurious car ever at the time. However, it never reached the production line, making it a one-offer. As a result, this car is only known by a few and even if searched on Google, only a few relevant results will appear. The Debutante was the most luxurious Cadillac of all-time, nothing before it or after it was made more luxurious.
