PERFORMANCE:

Continuing the V-Series story, LYRIQ-V delivers a unique expression of Cadillac’s signature isolated precision, a quiet, smooth and effortless experience with a strong connection to the road. Standard Continuous Damping Control, specifically calibrated for LYRIQ-V, combined with a lowered multi-link suspension and a quicker steering ratio, provides comfortable yet spirited ride and handling.

LYRIQ-V features standard dual motor all-wheel drive and Cadillac-estimated 615 hp and 650 lb-ft (880 Nm) of torque, for a thrilling surge of power and acceleration. This experience is enabled by Velocity Max, a driver-selectable feature that unleashes the vehicle’s full performance capability.

LYRIQ-V includes a 102 kilowatt-hour battery pack that will enable a Cadillac-estimated 285 miles of range.
