The Cadillac Lyriq heralds an all-electric future for the brand, with a host of cutting-edge technology and innovations driving the automaker in an exciting new direction. Naturally, Cadillac hopes to complement all that tech with sumptuous luxury every step of the way, offering a product that can “awaken your senses,” as seen in the following brief video.
Offered as part of Cadillac’s Verse video series, the video clocks in at a little over two minutes, and highlights several of the Cadillac Lyriq’s impressive features.
These include a massive 33-inch LED display, which will dominate the dash, stretching from left to right and providing not only the informational readouts for the driver, but also a central hub for the infotainment system. Featuring LED technology (as opposed to OLED technology like the display in the 2021 Cadillac Escalade), the Lyriq’s screen will have the highest pixel density available in the automotive industry today.
The Cadillac Lyriq also features a new dual-plane head-up display, with one plane appearing as though it’s floating on the hood, and another that looks like it is projected onto the road.
Audio entertainment comes via a 19-speaker stereo from AKG, which is designed to provide the clarity and quality of a professional recording studio.
Without a doubt, one of the Cadillac Lyriq’s highlight features is Super Cruise, the auto industry’s first truly hands-free semi-autonomous drive system. Designed to take the wheel and provide added comfort on longer journeys, the latest version of Super Cruise offers automated lane changing, which will execute a lane change autonomously after a command is issued by the driver.
The Cadillac Lyriq will offer over 300 miles of range per charge thanks to the latest Ultium battery technology, and will ride on General Motors’ new BEV3 modular electric vehicle platform. Production is expected to take place at the GM Detroit-Hamtramck plant, kicking off in late 2022 for the 2023 model year. Pricing will start under the $60,000 mark.

“…the Lyriq’s screen will have the highest pixel density available in the automotive industry today.”
huh???
Yeah today! how about “tomorrow / sometime” when it actually comes out?????
huh what???
WOW they have the HYPE going full speed! Lets see if they can keep it up for the next 4 or 5 years till the thing comes out…….
That screen will be in Bolt next year!
Awaken the senses?? This thing is beginning to put mine to sleep.
No one cares whether the Cadillac Lyriq has C8 Corvette off-the-line performance as much as that it is something that the public wants and isn’t another Cadillac CT6 or Pontiac Aztek where the car does well at car sales and dies in the showroom.
and it is going to cost $200K!!!
Dear Steve, It’s been widely reported that the Cadillac Lyriq’s price will start in the $50,000 to $59,999 range.
Source: MotorTrend article 8/13/2020 titled “2023 Cadillac Lyriq Will Be Priced Below $60,000: Cadillac’s luxury EV crossover won’t be wildly expensive, a new report suggests.”
Dear Steve, Also, the above article states that it will cost under $60,000. Where are you getting the $200K price from?
i’m getting it from omegatalon. he has repeated this falsehood so many times, i’m beginning to believe it!!!
He can not believe it because Tesla could never do it for that price.
The coming 2 – 3 years this concept is doing nothing at all, except being surpassed by every competitor.
Dear Alex, I would agree. I am stunned that the Lyriq EV will take another 2+ years to be released. It’s absolutely ridiculous in today’s rapidly moving EV market. I was expecting it to be released the end of this year to compete with the Tesla Model Y. My faith in GM’s EV execution has now been dashed twice.
Dear flamethrower,
Hopefully you’ll have Super Cruise ON so it will vibrate your seat to wake you back up. 😉
