Cadillac LYRIQ Redefines Luxury in Electric Vehicle Space

Cadillac will lead General Motors transition into an all-electric future, with the bold commitment of being in a position to exit the decade with a fully electric vehicle portfolio. LYRIQ marks the first of these world-leading vehicles that will establish Cadillac as a leader not just in luxury but also in the EV space.

LYRIQ represents the fundamental transformation of GM’s global product development process, powered by GM’s Ultium Platform and boasting a combination of the latest automotive technology, premium craftsmanship and a meticulous level of intricacy throughout its design. The model truly sets a new standard for the luxury EV landscape and plays a pivotal role in GM’s vision of Zero Crashes, Zero Emissions and Zero Congestion.

At launch in North America, LYRIQ will be available with premier technologies and stirring performance capabilities enabled by the vehicle’s dedicated electric architecture. LYRIQ will pack a 12-module, 100-kilowatt-hour battery pack and a rear-wheel-drive Ultium Platform that will deliver a 340 horsepower¹ and 440 Nm of torque¹ and most importantly, about 500+ Km of range with a full charge².
