The Emerald Lake Metallic color is an extra-cost option priced at $625. It is available on all trim levels, with the option to add a Black roof on the top equipment group of both the Luxury (1SE) and Sport (1SK) trim levels. Emerald Lake Metallic can be combined with all available interior colorways.

For reference, here are the five available interior colorways offered on the 2024 Lyriq:

Introduced for the 2023 model year, the Cadillac Lyriq stands as the luxury marque’s first entry into the budding EV market. The 2024 Cadillac Lyriq arrives with several important changes and updates. Among these is the introduction of the new Tech and Sport trim levels, with the Luxury trim level slotting between those. All three trim levels (Tech, Luxury, Sport) are available in the U.S. with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

The 2024 Cadillac Lyriq is the first GM vehicle in North America to feature 5G network connectivity, standard on all trim levels. The 2024 Lyriq also gets a new power panoramic dual-panel sunroof along with a newly available Nappa Leather seating package, which is genuine leather made from calfskin or other types of soft cowhide.

Regardless of the trim level selected, range per charge is estimated at 314 miles for rear-wheel-drive models, with motor output set at 340 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque, and 307 miles for all-wheel-drive models, with motor output set at 500 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque. The all-electric luxury crossover rides on the GM BEV3 platform, while GM Ultium batteries pair with GM Ultium drive motors for motivation.

Production of the 2024 Cadillac Lyriq is under way at the GM Spring Hill plant in Tennessee. The online configurator tool is live for the 2024 Lyriq.
