About the Cadillac LYRIQ
As a pioneer of some of the most groundbreaking and innovative features the automotive world has ever known, Cadillac has built its reputation on pushing the boundaries of what’s possible from a luxury vehicle. The tradition continues with the development of the dynamic Cadillac LYRIQ — a stunning all-electric exhibition of progressive design. Showcasing a number of impressive technological innovations, the LYRIQ combines remarkable efficiency with premium comfort features and sophisticated luxury amenities. You’ll make a memorable entrance thanks to the eye-catching exterior look of the LYRIQ complemented by a stunning collection of 736 choreographed LED lights within its exclusive lighting signature. Step inside the cabin to discover some of the most advanced in-vehicle technology to ever debut in a production vehicle. Highlights include a breathtaking 33-inch diagonal advanced LED display screen, home to a virtually endless array of customization options. Equipped with the revolutionary Cadillac Super Cruise semi-autonomous cruise control system, the groundbreaking LYRIQ represents the start of an entirely new chapter in the storied history of the Cadillac brand.
What the Critics Say
“Style may be subjective, but I think the Lyriq is one of the best-looking SUVs on the road today, and plenty of passersby seemed to agree. I received more comments and thumbs up in traffic than I have in any other vehicle I’ve driven. The Lyriq’s big 102-kWh battery charges at a brisk pace and doles out over 300 miles of range once topped up, which alleviated my range anxiety in day-to-day driving.” – U.S. News & World Report
“The Lyriq’s appeal begins with an almost suspiciously strong mix of range, charging, power and pricing figures. But after driving it a couple weeks you realize the numbers are just half the story. The Lyriq is smooth and responsive around town, comfortable and controlled on the highway, and has a stylish, roomy, feature-filled interior. Oh, and it can all but drive itself with the excellent Super Cruise system.” – Kelley Blue Book
What’s New for 2024
After an exciting debut last year, the Cadillac LYRIQ is back for 2024 with a number of key updates. Most notably, the trim lineup has been streamlined and simplified to help buyers choose the right model for their lifestyle. Now consisting of three individual choices, buyers can opt for the value-packed Tech, premium Luxury, or the thrilling Sport. Feature content has been distributed equally among these three to suit the needs of virtually any type of EV shopper.
