2023 Cadillac Lyriq Review: Electric SUV is Cadillac's future.
EV credentials are solid, the tech is eye-popping, and the design looks terrific.
The brand made famous by extravagant cars and blinged SUVs packed with gas-swilling V8s is about to start a very new chapter, and it starts with the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq.

The 2023 Cadillac Lyriq Is A Futuristic All-Electric Next Gen Luxury SUV,
Is the NEW 2023 Cadillac Lyriq a midsize luxury SUV worth the price?,
This 100% electric SUV is the first in a wave of Cadillacs powered only by electricity. Featuring GM’s new Ultium battery technology, shared by the Hummer EV, the Lyriq features a 100-kilowatt-hour battery good for an estimated 312 miles of range in the 340-horsepower rear-wheel-drive model. The 500-horsepower all-wheel-drive Lyriq’s estimated range had not been revealed at the time of this writing, but you can expect it to be slightly lower. Coupled with speedy recharging times, the Lyriq arrives with fully competitive EV credentials.

As for the vehicle itself, the Lyriq is a two-row midsize SUV that’s a bit bigger than Cadillac’s XT5 on the outside but a bit smaller on the inside (those super-cool looks do result in a tradeoff in practicality). The interior builds upon the tech-focused Escalade interior, boasting a similarly grand OLED curved infotainment/instrument display spanning much of the dash. Its floating center console, minimal physical controls and streamlined air vents are basically must-haves for an EV at this point. The steering wheel is also a new design, and the green lights you’ll see on its rim (pictured below) indicate the Lyriq comes standard with GM’s Super Cruise hands-free highway driving technology.
The Lyriq seems like a compelling deal for a comfortable, quiet, cutting-edge luxury EV. Ordering for the Lyriq opened ... and almost immediately closed after being sold out. Cadillac has since opened preorders for the 2024 Lyriq, but that won't be arriving until spring 2023. Sorry.
What's new for 2023?
The Lyriq is an all-new model.
What are the Lyriq interior and in-car technology like?
Welcome to the future. Slide into the Lyriq’s driver seat and you’ll be greeted by a vast expanse of curved screen that stretches from the A pillar to beyond the dash’s midway point. Unlike other seemingly huge screens, such as the Mercedes EQS Hyperscreen, which are really just separ
