Cadillac has teased it a few times, but the 2023 Cadillac LYRIQ is now official, and here’s what to expect from this all-new EV luxury crossover.
On the outside, the 2023 LYRIQ will boast a clean-sheet design that includes some of the dramatic angles and creases we’ve become accustomed to from the brand. However, it’s taken to a new level with the LYRIQ’s super-thin LED headlights and vertical signature lights flanking the all-new black crystal grille. Down the side, the LYRIQ’s body appears stretched with its long hood, sloping roofline, and shallow-raked rear glass. Around back, the 2023 LYRIQ will round things out with thin LED taillights that swoop around the side and shoot upward and vertical marking lights to match the front end.
Inside, the 2023 LYRIQ will feature a clean, tech-forward design with limited buttons and knobs and a large, curved 33-inch LED screen. It’ll also include an available 19-speaker AKG audio system, digital key compatibility, and more. The interior design will be highlighted by laser-etched patterns through wood-over-metal décor.
Initially, the 2023 LYRIQ will be available in Satin Steel Metallic or Stellar Black Metallic exterior colors paired with a Sky Cool Gray or Noir interior.
Powering the 2023 LYRIQ will be a fully electric powertrain with 340 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque. This power will head to the rear wheels only. Its range will check in at an estimated 300 miles thanks to a 12-module 100-kWh battery.
The LYRIQ will be compatible with 190-kW DC fast charging, which will give you 76 miles of range in 10 minutes. Home charging will deliver 52 miles of range per hour thanks to its 19.2-kW charging module.
Safety details will be available later, but we expect a full range of standard safety tech. What we do know is that Super Cruise, a hands-free driver-assistance technology, will be available.
