  • Cadillac is finally pumping out the all-electric Lyriq in volume and it could be the vehicle that makes people forget about tailfins, chrome, floaty chassis dynamics and Cimarron. Lyriq is handsome, comfortable, roomy, powerful, quiet and packed with tech. Tom Voelk checks out an AWD Sport 3 with Super Cruise and finds it to be a solid value with room for five full sized adults. Now about that wobbly charge port door…

    This is the first good-looking Lyriq I’ve seen. I didn’t know they had made so many revisions since it was introduced. The front graphics are definitely an improvement on this trim.

    Great review. I finally got my RWD Level 2 Luxury January 1st of this year. Two years after I put down my deposit. I agree with all you said. I am totally pleased with everything about the car. It was worth the wait. I had already planned a one month winter getaway and drove it 4,000 miles in February. No problems at all. This is my first EV and charging was never an issue. Love the Supercruse. PS: The rear wiper was never missed. I drove through, snow, rain, desert dust and the back window stayed clean. Design slope and rear spoiler seems to keep it clean. Range note. I consistently about 300 miles on a full charge in all types weather. Turning on the Heat or AC did not seem to effect the range much, if any. Great car, highly recommend.

I use my Niro EV to commute daily (40 miles a day), and plug it in every other day and all weekend with no issues…So, folks who can’t install one shouldn’t be turned off from EV buying if you aren’t driving a lot of mile daily in relation to your vehicle’s range…

    GM has come a long way, there is so much about this car that I really like. But that charge door...man that brings back memories of 80s GM. It is a thing you will interact with every single day. It has to work perfectly even in bitterly cold and icy weather, when the whole thing is coated with an inch of ice, etc. How on earth did that become a place where the bean counters won the day? If you park in a heated garage maybe it will survive to the end of the lease, but it sure doesn't inspire any confidence. But you also have to pay $25 A MONTH for super cruise after 3 years, and you get to listen to an intrusive, low-speed warning noise constantly in stop and go traffic, not to mention they are dropping support for Apple Car Play so that may not work for the life of the vehicle. Those are all pretty good reasons to not buy what is otherwise a pretty top tier effort. GM has some of the best engineers in the business, their chassis tuning is some of the best in the industry, etc. But the engineers apparently still need a little more authority to veto the accountants.

    I ended up taking a LUXURY 3 instead.
    I think Cadillac’s biggest mistake was having so many trims.
    This car should be fully loaded with the only options being the power moonroof, wheel size and paint/interior color.
    For them to take away the ventilation/ massage and ambient lighting from the “tech” trim was stupid. This should not be a “cheap car”.

    My experience with fast charging is simple. It takes 20 to 30 min regardless of state of charge. The top charge rate is mostly theoretical, right ambient and battery temp, low state if charge (20% or less), etc. Though the EQS max charge rate is 200, most of the time, 150 is more like it given all the stars that need to align to get it. I live in mid WI, so I do a lot of DC charging at cold temps.

    Great review! Glad to finally hear your thoughts on the car. Had one pre-ordered since Mat 2022 with that car never arriving. Luckily someone else couldn't pick up their Sport 3 in black with the white interior so I managed to snag it instead back in January.
    Been absolutely loving the car and looking back really glad I was pushed to MY24 as the door pulls from the 23's were pretty bad and needlessly cumbersome. Also following the forums seems the debut editions & 23's have had many many more software bugs and issues. The software luckily seems to be mostly stable now (still dumb that they have paused OTA's and need you to take the car into the dealership to get module & software updates).
    Overall Cadillac's rollout of their first EV has been a disaster and definitely something other companies should study as to what not to do.

    Unlike your Lucid Air GT review, I found this review quite informative. It did however confirm my suspicions regarding the Lyriq, that it is just another 300 range me too EV. With a chance to break away from the crowd, GM decided to be just another 300 mile range vehicle. Other than some interesting design choices and Super Cruise, your review has convinced me to not choose this unit. Especially with the monthly subscription charges associated with features on the unit. I hate that. This is probably your best review video. But I will be passing on this unit.
    Good Job!

    I've seen a lot of comments on the way the charge door opens and it seems to push itself out rather forcibly to maybe push past ice if it ever freezes. That's my guess. 🤷🏽‍♂️ It had to be a reason for the initial aggressive open then it slows down before if fully opens.

      It was a small window when GM offered huge incentives and dealerships wanted to get rid of them once it was discontinued. The MSRP on mine was $80K, paid the dealer $42K, then got $7,500 off from Uncle Sam. Cost me $1,100 to ship it from WI to WA though. 2016s were a $8-10K premium at the time and I couldn't justify it.

    Clarification: ‘24 Lyriqs do not qualify for the $7,500 fed credit, but GM is covering the same with a refund. It also qualifies for $500 NY rebate. Also check your utility may provide credits. My $1,500 charger credit covered all but $350 in parts and was installed in a week through thier Qmerit partner which was excellent.

      @DrivenCarReviews  2 місяці тому +1

      There was a run of Lyriqs built from Dec 2023 to Fed 2024 that were not eligible for the tax credit due to a change in the rules and a Chinese component that put content over the threshold.. Those get the GM rebate. That issue was rectified early March. So the tax credit is back on. Buyers will get either or.

Currently it’s a steal on the used market as everybody forgot about this model and the market is too small to absorb cars that come back from lease.

      The ELR is a neat machine, but it was never going to be very popular. People aren't buying two door coupes, they want SUVs and crossovers. Cadillac and Chevy would've been wise to put that powertrain in a crossover. Looks like they'll be doing that in the near future now.
