GM is now officially rolling out new deliveries of the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V, marking the official launch of Caddy’s first all-electric high-performance V-Series model.
Production of the 2026 Lyriq-V kicked off at the GM Spring Hill Assembly plant in Tennessee at the end of March, per a GM Authority exclusive.
As GM Authority has covered at length, the Lyriq-V offers significantly more power, sharper handling, and more aggressive styling than the standard Lyriq. Customers can choose between two trims, including the ‘base” Lyriq-V, starting at $80,090 after a recent destination freight charge increase from $1,395 to $1,495, and the Lyriq-V Premium, priced at $85,290.
Both variants are powered by a dual-motor powertrain and 102 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Fully unleashed with Velocity Max mode activated, this setup produces an estimated 615 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, propelling the Lyriq-V from 0 to 60 mph in an estimated 3.3 seconds. Range-per-charge is rated at 285 miles, while the battery pack can gulp down 75 miles of range in just 10 minutes when connected to an appropriate DC fast charger.
Outside, we find a new front end, new side rockers, and body colored lower trim. Customers can also opt for an optional Exterior Carbon Fiber Package (RPO code CFZ) and exclusive Magnus Metal Frost paint.
With regard to handling, the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V is equipped with a five-link independent suspension featuring Continuous Damping Control, advanced adaptive valve-based damper technology, and Continuously Variable Electric Power Steering. Stopping power is provided by a set of Brembo brakes with 15.35-inch front rotors and 13.6-inch rear rotors. Standard 22-inch dark sport alloy wheels wrapped in 275/40R22 summer-only tires deliver the grip, while all-season tires are optional.
Stepping inside, the 2026 Lyriq-V cabin is dominated by a 33-inch diagonal LED display, while a dual-plane Augmented Reality Head-Up Display and a premium 23-speaker AKG stereo system round out the highlights. There’s also a V-Series signature steering wheel, power-adjustable seat bolsters, and illuminated V-Series sill plates.
The 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V rides on the GM BEV3 platform.
Comments
Yet GM still keeps changing the lipstick color on the pig. It’s still a pig! The pig stall at my dealer is still loaded with no one interested. Time to take them to the slaughterhouse.
Wow. It looks dated already!
Be nice just to show the car, not the two soft spoken dicks……
I AGREE GO BACK TO TOYOTA you are not wanted here just to leave negative comments. Toyota has nothing close to this. This is the best selling brand out there and very popular. If you work for a foreign car company you are not welcome along with a oil company.
