GM’s planned sub-Lyriq electric Cadillac crossover will feature the same widescreen 33-inch display panel used in the Cadillac Lyriq, GM Authority has learned from its sources.
The General also plans to use the same widescreen display in the refreshed Cadillac CT5 and the overhauled XT5 as well as in the sub-Lyriq electric Cadillac, as GM Authority previously discovered.
The display saw its debut with the Cadillac Lyriq, the first of GM’s vehicles to incorporate the curved, 33-inch widescreen LED display in its cabin design. The screen is a single piece, but is divided into three different display areas, including an instrument cluster section, a section for controls, and an infotainment display.
GM plans to use the widescreen LED display across the next generation of Cadillac vehicles, introducing it with the rollout of new models or as part of the refresh or overhaul of existing nameplates. The screen will be tailored to specific models, including the sub-Lyriq electric Cadillac, with different display layouts.
The automaker considers the size of the display as “a huge differentiator” for the Cadillac brand according to senior design manager for UI Bill Thompson.
In the past few weeks, GM Authority spy photographers captured images of a Cadillac CT5 equipped with the widescreen display. The display is expected to be introduced when the CT5 gets its mid-cycle refresh, making the 2025 Cadillac CT5 the most likely model year to debut the feature. However, its launch as a 2024.5 model isn’t out of the question.
Spy photos of the prototype 2025 Cadillac XT5 also showed a widescreen display in the works. However, this version of the XT5 will not be launched in the United States. The next-generation 2025 XT5 will be available only in China.

As a reminder, the sub-Lyriq electric Cadillac crossover was first revealed to dealers during a March 2022 meeting. While not officially unveiled to the public, GM Authority obtained spy photos of its prototype in road testing. These revealed a vehicle with exterior styling similar to the new Chevy Equinox EV and size comparable to the current Cadillac XT4.

Nobody asked for this ugly ass car can Cadillac refresh the xt6?
Yes. The XT6 needs refreshing. Last year there was much information about a refresh for 2024, and then abruptly silenced. Cadillac definitely needs to do something about this 3 row SUV.
Tons of people are asking for this very car. Just because you don’t care, doesn’t mean there aren’t a whole bunch of other people who do. This is a huge market segment.
looks good but give us some colour on interiors with the new display
Oh my god, say it isn’t so!! We are getting another SUV with an over-sized screen!!! I can’t control myself!! When can I get one? This is a complete groundbreaking vehicle!
It is a Hugh segment. When production gets rolling it will probably outsell the Lyriq 2 to 1
