Cadillac has officially announced the 2026 Lyriq V, marking its first all-electric model to bear the prestigious V-Series badge. This new SUV combines luxury with high performance, promising to Cadillac’s presence in the electric vehicle market.
While specific details about the Lyriq V are still limited, the automaker has shared a couple of images and a brief video showcasing its design.
From what we can see, the Lyriq V features a sportier appearance compared to the standard Lyriq. It sits lower to the ground and has a slightly altered grille, giving it a more aggressive look that resembles past V-Series models like the CTS-V wagon.
Cadillac has emphasized that the Lyriq V will blend the luxurious qualities of the Lyriq with the performance attributes typical of the V-Series lineup.
The video reveals some exciting features, including Brembo brakes and carbon fiber elements, along with the signature V button on the steering wheel, hinting at enhanced performance capabilities.
The regular 2024 Lyriq is already an impressive vehicle, equipped with either a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup that delivers 515 horsepower or a single-motor rear-wheel-drive version producing 365 horsepower. With the introduction of the V-Series, expectations are high for even more power and performance from the Lyriq V.
Set to debut in Spring 2025, the Lyriq V promises to be a game-changer for Cadillac, appealing to both luxury car enthusiasts and electric vehicle fans alike.
As more information is revealed, it’s clear that this model aims to redefine the electric SUV experience while maintaining Cadillac’s legacy of performance and style.
