Cadillac Lyriq

The 2027 Cadillac Lyriq starts at $59,400 MSRP for the Lyriq Luxury RWD and runs to $83,900 for the Lyriq-V Premium AWD across the 14 configurations we track. With Cadillac's $1,795 destination fee, that comes to $61,195 to $85,695 before tax, registration and options.

EPA-estimated range depends on the drivetrain, and EPA's 2027 ratings match the 2026 car's. Single-motor rear-wheel-drive Lyriqs are rated at 326 miles, the best in the lineup. Dual-motor all-wheel-drive models earn up to 319 miles. The performance Lyriq-V drops to about 285 miles due to its added power and bigger wheels. All versions share the same 102-kWh battery, so the differences come from drivetrain and trim, not battery size.

It depends on the trim, and Cadillac publishes no 0-60 time for the single-motor RWD or the 515-hp dual-motor AWD Lyriq. The range-topping 615-hp Lyriq-V is the quick one — Cadillac claims 3.3 seconds with Launch Control and Velocity Max, and testers have logged about 3.6 seconds, making it the quickest Cadillac yet.

On a DC fast charger the Lyriq peaks near 190 kW; Cadillac's 2027 specifications quote up to 86 miles of range in about 10 minutes, and its 2026 specifications gave about 40 minutes from 10% to 80% for both the Lyriq and the Lyriq-V. On a 240-volt Level 2 home charger, Cadillac quotes up to 31 miles of range per hour with the standard 11.5 kW onboard charger (50 with the available 19.2 kW) but no full-charge time. The 190-kW peak is solid but trails faster-charging rivals like the 800-volt Hyundai Ioniq 5.

Single-motor rear-wheel-drive Lyriqs produce 365 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. Dual-motor all-wheel-drive models step up to 515 horsepower and 450 lb-ft. The flagship Lyriq-V delivers 615 horsepower and 650 lb-ft. All three use the same 102-kWh battery; the difference comes from one motor versus two and the V's higher-output tuning.

Yes, from the 2027 model year, which is the Lyriq Cadillac now builds and prices: it has a built-in NACS (J3400) port and plugs straight into Tesla Superchargers. GM's CCS1 DC adapter for older CCS stations is an extra-cost accessory. A leftover 2026 or earlier Lyriq uses a CCS1 port and needs GM's NACS DC adapter ($275 MSRP, ordered through the myCadillac app) for Superchargers.

The Lyriq is 196.7 inches long with a 121.8-inch wheelbase, 86.9 inches wide including mirrors and 64.3 inches tall. Cargo room measures 28.0 cubic feet behind the second row and 60.8 cubic feet with the rear seats folded. It seats five. There's no front trunk, but a deep underfloor bin holds charging cables and small items.

Yes, but modestly. Dual-motor all-wheel-drive Lyriq models are rated to tow up to 3,500 pounds — enough for a small utility or boat trailer, jet skis or a bike rack. As with any EV, towing significantly reduces driving range, so plan charging stops accordingly. Cadillac's 2026 Lyriq specs list that 3,500-pound rating only for dual-motor models, with no towing figure for the single-motor rear-wheel-drive version; for the 2027 Lyriq, Cadillac lists 3,500 pounds for the single-motor RWD model as well.

It depends on priorities. The Lyriq is bigger, quieter and more luxurious, with a striking 33-inch display and standard Super Cruise hands-free driving — but it costs more, and charges slower (about 190 kW vs. up to 250 kW); the 2027 Lyriq does now plug into Tesla Superchargers without an adapter, like the Tesla. The Model Y is quicker to charge and holds value well. Choose the Lyriq for space and luxury, the Model Y for charging convenience and value.

Yes — the Cadillac Lyriq is offered in both rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations. RWD trims are typically less expensive and slightly more efficient; AWD trims add a second motor for better traction in snow/rain and faster acceleration.

No. The federal Clean Vehicle Credit (IRC §30D) expired on September 30, 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act — no new EVs purchased on or after October 1, 2025 qualify. State incentives remain available: see our /deals page for current rebates in California, Maine, Colorado, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and other states. The Section 30C EV Charger Tax Credit (for home charger installation) expired June 30, 2026 — if your charger was placed in service on or before that date, you can still claim it (30% up to $1,000) on your 2026 return via IRS Form 8911.

Real-world data from EV fleets suggests modern lithium-ion EV batteries (2020+) retain roughly 85–90% of their original capacity at 100,000 miles, above the 75% capacity floor in the Cadillac Lyriq battery warranty, and 80–85% at 200,000 miles.

The Cadillac Lyriq battery warranty is 8 years / 100,000 miles, with a 75% capacity floor. It covers capacity loss below that floor, and the coverage transfers to later owners. Compare it with every other EV in our EV battery warranty rankings.
