The much-anticipated 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V has finally arrived. GM Authority has followed the Lyriq-V story since 2021, and now, the high-performance electric luxury crossover has reached a significant milestone. The online configurator for the Lyriq-V is now live on Cadillac’s website.
As we detailed earlier this week, the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V is available in two distinct trims. The key differences between the V-Series and V-Series Premium are a dual-panel panoramic sunroof (RPO CAJ), Nappa leather upholstery (PCH), open-pore wood trim, and a 19.2 kW charging module (K2O) in the pricier Premium model.
Just a few standard features on every V-Series model include Super Cruise, an augmented reality head-up display, an AKG Studio 23-speaker audio system, a 33-inch LED display, heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats, a hands-free power liftgate, 22-inch wheels, Brembo front brakes, and Continuous Damping Control suspension.
Pricing starts at $79,990 for the base V-Series and $85,190 for the V-Series Premium. Although already very well-equipped, there are still some options you can add that drive up the price tag. Premium paint options range from $625 to $3,995; Argent Silver Metallic (GXD) is the only no-cost paint option. 22-inch Black alloy wheels (LPO SET) are available for $3,995, and you can get them wrapped in all-season tires rather than summer tires for an extra $100. Red brake calipers are a $595 option.
A few option packages available for either trim include the Exterior Carbon Fiber Package for $5,700, the Premium Carpet Package for $695, and the Blue Accent Package (PDL), Bronze Accent Package (PDJ), and Red Accent Package (PDK), all available for $4,595. A couple of options exclusive to the V-Series Premium include the Oxford Stone with Garnet accents interior color (ELT) for no extra cost and Magnus Metal Frost paint (GBL) for $3,995.
Every 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V is powered by a dual-motor powertrain juiced by a 102 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. This configuration delivers 615 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, allowing the Lyriq-V to rocket from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.3 seconds with Velocity Max mode activated.
Under the skin, the Cadillac Lyriq-V rides on the GM BEV3 platform, the same architecture that underpins the standard Lyriq. Production takes place at the GM Spring Hill Assembly plant in Tennessee.

I really like how they are packaging the options with the EVs. No more needing to investigate whether a vehicle you’re looking at has a particular feature or not. As long as they stay committed, they can lead the luxury EV segments.
I noticed that too. Much more streamlined trim levels. I like it.
Looks no different than a Kia or Hyundai EV. What really makes it so special? More juice? lol it’s like adding lace to the bottom of your bell bottom pants. Still looks stupid!
You must be blind if you think this looks anything like the Kia or Hyundai EVs.
