cadillac CRUSHED IT.
7:39 The area where you'd think you have the C-Pillar is actually the rear quarter window with a design that flows into the top part of the taillights. So it's not exactly a true blind spot. It's an unusual in-between that actually works pretty well with the overall design.
New addition to the Cadillac Clique
cliq*
I live in a small town in New Jersey and have seen several Cadillac Lyriqs in my area, and they are beautiful cars.
Now this looks like a futurstic unique design. Unlike the new tesla model 3 blob
Tesla and design? Oh do me a favour
You may like it, but it's still a stub- nosed, boxy, upright and old fashioned crossover, not futuristic and unique. Teslas actually look different from every other car.
@@jamesengland7461 Tesla's look different ? Lol
Yea they look like cars for the mid 2000's
@@jamesengland7461 u kidding me? Tesla model s looks like for a ford mondeo. Theirs so many teslas that have the same bland headlight and tail light design of teslas. The model X looks like a mini van. The model 3 looks like some weird chinese fish. Thing with the new model 3 is, its like 2 different people made the car. The front is sleek and the rest of the car all the way till the rear is a blob. If u look at it from the side it's proportioned so lopsided. Not to mention it's interior doesn't even have a cool gauge cluster screen or even a HUD. Most boring plain jane driving POV ever.
i’m sad people have started to hate evs cause this is beautiful 😕
People don’t hate EVs, EV haters hate EVs and they desperately WANT everyone else to hate them too.
I hate ev's because of this
it is sad.
People don’t hate EVs. In fact, more and more are hitting the roads every day. Most people are being fed propaganda and are skeptical or hesitant. But this is gradually changing as more and more people know someone with an EV and almost every EV owner rightfully sings its praises.
@@2ShrinkTheWorldVery true. I wasn't a EV believer until a friend took me for a drive in his Tesla. From that day on I became a EV believer. I did my research on EVs and am now a VW ID.4 owner and love it.
As a Cadillac LYRIQ owner, I can honestly say that these new generation of electric vehicles are probably the best cars that Cadillac has ever made.
I’ve owned an STS, SRX and XT5 (currently). The Cadillac EV feel like Mercedes products.
Unfortunately, they still have some software issues. I had to wait an entire year before I got my LYRIQ order because of supercruise holding it back and because of the UAW strike.
Now that things seem to be moving forward smoothly I’ve had my car for 6000 miles and very recently my super cruise and adaptive cruise control have run into some issue that requires me to take it back to the dealer service. I would have had to take it back for service anyway by 7000 miles but now I have to go in to get these items reset.
One of the things I’ve realized is that I’ve been overreliant on the forward, collision detection, super cruise, driving and adaptive cruise control. When you don’t have these features, you really feel the weight of these cars. Acceleration and deceleration suddenly becomes a chore.
That said: I hope things will be better, but I really doubt that will be the issue because they use the exact same base software that the Lyriq uses.
Personally, I like the OPTIQ, but I think an issue GM will have is selling these when the XT4 costs so much less.
The OPTIK starts at $54,000 which really puts it in the same striking range as buying a brand new XT5.
This American market is hurting from high interest interest rates and a $54,000 car loan is most likely gonna cost you over $1000 per month.
I really believe that this market really wants a three row VISTIQ more than it once the OPTIQ.
Here in New York City, for example these electric cars are being used by Uber/lift/ride shares.
With the Lincoln Navigator and the Cadillac Escalade exceeding $110,000 as well as gas electric vehicles are suddenly in demand.
I think the only thing that will convince Cadillac buyers to move on from the XT4, XT5 and XT6 to one of their electric replacements is psychological obsolescence, and the need to have something new. I get a lot of compliments and a lot of questions from people about my car I tell them the truth : advantages and disadvantages.
They make these in China too
They cost soo much less there.
USA used to be the cheapest place to buy cars in the world but inflation is through the roof
Mustang mach E
And Lyriq both are almost identical and have the same drive train as the American version are a lot cheaper in China 10k +
The XT4 is absolute garbage. This is actually better even as a EV
Haha. Regardless of how many you see in your area the Cadillac Lyriq is the best selling vehicle in the segment and it’s a very crowded segment with lots of choices. The _Optiq_ will do very well for the Cadillac brand as will the three-row Vistiq.
Beautiful car
tbh it's the first electric SUV which looks really good in my opinion
I feel like the rims don´t match the otherwise futuristic look of the car. Cadillac really has a strong brand identity these days. The vertical light signatures are especially cool and unmistakable. Really liked your take that they help make it look planted!
The lyriq gives station wagon vibes toward the back. The Optiq is looks better.
Have you considered changing the name of your channel from Bembli to...Chamfers?
😂😂😂😂
The lack of continuity in the rear lights top-to bottom is a huge L. Overall very nice, especially for this class.
Bembli the 🐐
I live in Los Angeles and notice several Lyriq’s all over the city.
love the design - but - I'd like to see all the exterior shiny black crap (on the lower portions of the car) painted to match the car color. I know those parts are probably painted, but they just look cheap on such a nice car. I really wish the car companies would ditch the sbp (shiny black plastic) - it really cheapens these cars and there are SOOOO many other materials they could use.
have you guys seen the lmdh prototype cadillac has in WEC races, I think they should get rid of the front grill and get inspired design features from that
I think I'm having a similar reaction to the rear of this car as I had to the front end of the Pontiac Aztek, but that one has grown on me over time. Maybe this one will too.
It's such a mixed bag for me unfortunately. There are bits that I think are great which I like a lot but then there are other parts I think look totally goofy.
Lyriqs are actually the best selling luxury suvs at the moment unless you count tesla as luxury cars some do
Not saying Tesla is luxury but price wise they are a model 3 is similar in cost to an audi a4, bmw 3 series, mercedes c class etc.
seems like tesla set a new standard for EVolved luxury
I jist want the vertical part of the headlights to be more thinner. They look off going from thin the down and getting big.
Just another ordinary crossover shape with bling on it
The UPTICK
I like the part that use words to name their cars and not numbers.
the body looks the way
i wish the Blazer looked
Big chevy blazer vibes from the outside
For me it looks like the a cross between the new lexus rx (especially that back wheel arch) and the orange MG 4 sport . 😅
I’d like to see more of the interface on their giant screen, but I actually really like how they’ve incorporated the screen from what I see. Hopefully they didn’t botch it all by shipping a crappy interface. (Not holding my breath there, though. I hate ~98% of the car infotainment interfaces so far, and the remaining 2% are honestly just bare minimum acceptable in my opinion.)
i need to see this with a blacked out hood without it the two tone just seems incomplete without it. also i don't like the bottom tail lights they just feel like they were designed for a different vehicle but just slapped on there
It will sell, and it will sell very well.
Love the look but I'm not ready for an EV. If it were an ICE, I'd be all over it. The XT4/5/6 don't look nearly as good.
While I really like the interior, there are 2 design details that I think are a little awkward. The first is the large lower tail lights. It started with the Lyriq. They remind me of the ‘reverse’ tail fins in the ‘61 and ‘62 Caddys. Tail fins should emphasize upward movement rather than downward movement in a Cadillac. The second is the shape of the D pillar. It first appears on the Escalade IQ and continues on the Optiq (underneath the glass) and the upcoming Vistiq. The D pillar is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. You saw it quite a bit in Mopar designs from the mid/late ‘60s. Very unbalanced.
cool
It’s stunning the problem is do people want EVs
Is it AHP-TICK or AHP-TEEK?
Очень жаль, что многие компании стали делать дизайн как у китайцев. Бесят уже китайские автомобили, все одинаковые как под копирку. Выглядит как смесь Exeed RX, Haval и Geely. Нет уже какой-то своей оригинальности кадиллака, как раньше
No, not "teek" at the end
The rear lights much nicer in the europe
huh?
@@hazel_the_bunny_ The lights are only in the lower part, and in the upper part the winkers
Looks soooooo much better than the Lyriq
Lol 2009 focus did they tail lights better
it's "ICK" not "EEK"
Needs a V
EVs are much better cars-when people rail against them-they are clinging to dirty and sluggish cars. It’s as if their masculinity is threatened. Very strange.
Only if there was a Hybrid Version...
Has Kia Niro vibes. Is Cadi looking at the Koreans🤔
Stunning?! Dude, are on GM’s payroll? This is a very bland and uninspired reskin of the Blazer.
You mean the Equinox, right?
Not a fan of the design. It's not very classy.
No CarPlay or android auto is such an ass move.
Gorgeous interior. Cool exterior.... too bad it's an EV. No one will buy it.
What a weirdo.
@pawalker147 look at the numbers.
@@ghost21501 do you mean the numbers that suggest the Cadillac Lyriq (EV) is the best selling crossover from the brand? When have you taken your own advice and looked at numbers?
@pawalker147 they've sold like 9000 all together. I wouldn't call that a success.
This guy is full of bs. He didn't like the Porsche design but praising this garbage 😂
You just broke the matrix
Awe Porsche fanboys finding out that not everyone is a fan of their designs 😂
It's all very subjective. I don't like the Porsche update either. The newest generation of designs for all of their cars have gotten a bit uglier than the last generation.
@@timeslowingdown lmao still million times better than this stupid car
Cadi fell off
