2027 Cadillac LYRIQ

Price Range: $59,400 - $83,900

Very Good

The 2027 Cadillac Lyriq is a sensible choice for a luxury electric SUV. It's roomy, packed with features, and can go more than 300 miles on a single charge. We also like its competitive pricing. Some fresh rivals, though, outclass the Lyriq in style and performance.Read full review

Overview

Written by automotive expert Mark Takahashi

7/15/2026

Cadillac's first EV, the Lyriq, debuted four years ago, and today the lineup has grown to include four additional SUV models. The 2027 Cadillac Lyriq is the midsize model, and it's been joined by the smaller Optiq, the three-row Vistiq and the flagship Escalade IQ. You'll probably like the Lyriq if you want a quiet and roomy electric SUV that can go more than 300 miles on a single charge. It also offers a bunch of technology features, including the helpful Super Cruise hands-free highway driving system. Our test team gives the Lyriq high marks for its comfort and value, though they say some EV rivals offer an advantage in interior refinement and driving excitement.

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Very Good

7.4

out of 10

We drove the 2027 Cadillac LYRIQ on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Driving experience

7.6/10

How does it drive? The Lyriq is not a performance-oriented EV. Its acceleration doesn't give you that gut punch from the instant torque delivery that we've become used to. We tested a dual-motor all-wheel-drive Lyriq and it sprinted from zero to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds. Not slow in general, but many competitors are much quicker.

Another place where its comfort-first mission shows up is in the way it handles. Drive with some enthusiasm and the composure you typically expect from EVs (all of which feature the bulk of their mass low down in the chassis) is missing. Combine that with slow steering and not-so-grippy tires and it's clear the Lyriq is more about being tidy on the dead-ahead than it is in curves.

On long stretches of highway or on city streets, the Lyriq's comfort bias pays major dividends. Its suspension soaks up road imperfections well, though smaller bumps result in a little bit of juddering in the cabin. Most of the time, the Lyriq's ride is near the top of its class. It's impressively quiet inside too.

Its lengthy list of driver aids and the standard Super Cruise — one of the best hands-free, eyes-on systems on the market — are big pluses. That seriously boosts the Lyriq's appeal.

Comfort

7.9/10

How comfortable is it? Both the first and second rows in the Lyriq are spacious, comfy places to be. The front seats are supportive enough and covered in a nice leather. Plus, because it's a relatively low-slung SUV with wide door openings, it's easy to get in and out of.

There are things we didn't like about the interior. The center console of our test vehicle squeaked if we pressed down too hard on any part of it, and the driver's seat lacked just enough adjustment, which made finding a comfortable position a little too difficult. Another knock is the view out of the back. Though we're thankful for blind-spot warning, rearward visibility could be better. The small window openings make getting a clear picture of what's behind a touch difficult.

We also appreciate the Lyriq's intuitive, easy-to-learn tech interface. There are three screens, and they all have different functions and display different info. The screen on the far left also occasionally mirrors what's in the center stack (like the trip information, for example). So we recommend prospective buyers sit in one at a dealership and familiarize themselves with the Lyriq before they make a purchase.

In-cabin tech

9.7/10

How’s the tech? The tech in the Lyriq is a high point. It features all of the benefits of having Google built right in — which gives fantastic voice recognition and the best native maps solution in the business — as well as the added benefit of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. It all works seamlessly, and while we aren't in love with the design of the Lyriq's user interface, that's a small gripe in the face of a vast amount of easy-to-use and helpful tech.

Even smaller things have been considered. There's a small fan that blows cold air onto your phone in the wireless charger to keep it cool, the USB-C ports are in a logical place, and the configurable screens give pertinent information and are easy to navigate.

Storage & cargo

6.5/10

How’s storage and cargo? The Lyriq will have enough cargo space for most families. It has 28 feet of cubic space to work with behind the second row, and while it's not as large as the BMW iX or Tesla Model X, it is on par with the Audi Q8 E-tron. Fold the seats down and you have up to 60 cubic feet to use for larger items. The max towing capacity is a pretty average 3,500 pounds, but that's less than rivals like the BMW iX (6,000 pounds) and Audi Q8 (4,000 pounds).

In-cabin storage is OK. There is a medium-size center armrest bin and an average glovebox. There is also a bonus cubby that slides out from the front dash, plus a small space right in between the passenger and driver that's covered in a contrast-colored leather and is ideal for a small handbag.

Value

8/10

Is it a good value? Overall build quality in the Lyriq is impressive. We found a few squeaks and rattles here and there, but major touchpoints all feel solid. The vehicle we tested came with a plethora of optional equipment and was a top-spec Luxury 3 model. Even fully loaded, a Lyriq will often undercut many of its rivals, few of which come with a hands-free driving system like Super Cruise.

The Lyriq comes with a warranty that's on par with other EVs in its class. Cadillac offers four years/50,000 miles of coverage for the basics and eight years/100,000 miles of coverage for the drivetrain. The EV battery warranty is also eight years/100,000 miles.

Range/Efficiency/Charging

5.2/10

How are the range and efficiency? The EPA says the rear-wheel-drive Lyriq should go up to 326 miles on a full charge and the all-wheel-drive model up to 319 miles. We tested a 2024 all-wheel-drive Lyriq with an estimated range of 307 miles, but in our independent Edmunds EV Range Test, it actually managed 319 miles. So if range is your main concern, the Lyriq won't let you down — it can even overdeliver compared to the official estimate.

On efficiency, it used 37.6 kWh per 100 miles in our test, which is a tad better than its EPA number but pretty standard for an EV like this. Nothing really extraordinary there.

Charging is where things start to drag. In our test, the Lyriq added about 261 miles of range per hour, which equates to roughly 23 minutes to get 100 miles back. That makes it the slowest-charging luxury EV, so if fast charging is important for your road trips or daily routine, you might find it frustrating.

X factor

7/10

The Lyriq's styling manages to turn heads. It's an attractive design and is immediately distinguishable as something new from Cadillac. Not only is it good-looking, but it also manages to be understated without being boring. It isn't the most fun to drive, but it accomplishes its mission of being a quiet, comfortable, tech-forward EV.

2027 Cadillac LYRIQ trim level differences

The 2027 Cadillac Lyriq is a five-passenger midsize electric SUV. Cadillac splits the lineup into two styles — Luxury and Sport — each of which comes in three equipment levels: base, Premium and Signature. The Luxury and Sport only differ in that the Luxury has chrome exterior trim, while the Sport has glossy black styling elements and a unique grille. Cadillac also offers the performance-oriented Lyriq-V and Lyriq-V Premium. Compare the 2027 Cadillac LYRIQ trim levels in-depth.

Which Lyriq trim level does Edmunds recommend?

For a more complete luxury experience, we suggest stepping up to the Premium trim. It's not that much more than the base model yet adds several desirable features. These include ventilated and massaging seats, premium audio, and a hands-free power liftgate. It's also eligible for faster charging, premium leather upholstery and a massive sunroof.

Alternatives to the 2027 Cadillac Lyriq

There are a few all-new electric luxury SUVs we recommend checking out. The 2027 BMW iX3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric look to be pretty compelling. They offer more than 400 miles of range, along with quick acceleration and the latest technology the companies have to offer. You might also like the new Rivian R2. It has the same outdoorsy style as the bigger R1S but is smaller and less expensive. Cadillac's Optiq and Vistiq also earn favorable reviews from our test team and are viable alternatives to the Lyriq.
