Chronology: Gave $100 deposit back in 2023. Long delay in production volume created a move to 3rd Tesla (Model Y). Still had interest in the Lyriq, but initial issues prompted another delay. Found used 2023 Genesis GV60 & owned that car a total of 3 months. Did not meet my criteria, but was able to trade for CPO Mercedes EQS 580. A delightful car to use & many positive features in the 2022 version. Owned for 1 ½ years & decided the trade value was in a sweet spot for the next EV. Had kept my eyes on the Lyriq during all this time & decided the best trim level was the Luxury 2 or Sport 2. As this was my 1st Caddie, liked the Luxury bling of more shiny trim. Interior wise also liked the subtle throw back to Cadillacs way back. Crystal white exterior & gray Santorini interior also my choice as I had the white interior in several cars. (Hint) Use interior ceramic coat & interior seating surfaces much easier to maintain. Going on a month of ownership & have worked out the configurations that meet my use. Not much mileage yet, but charging @ home is same as other evs except faster than the Mercedes by a bit. As shown by a variety of testers, DC charging is not the most robust, but adequate in my use case. Super Cruise certainly was a surprise in my own implementation! As long as mapped road… wow. Used it in a strong rain storm to check validity & was delighted, but cautious for failure. Seats are comfortable for my average frame, but message is at best minimal as a function. Not as good as Mercedes, but equal to Genesis. Also tested the Optiq & liked its functionality. Actually, a good offering, but seemed a bit too small for my tastes. Show-stopper was no CarPlay, which the Lyriq still has! Bravo Cadillac! The UI on the Lyriq being Google Based seems quite robust, but not much need for the Playstore, etc. Lyriq performance is also a good showing of initial ramping of acceleration, then boom as speed increases. Steering, suspension evoke Cadillac thoughts of earlier years (my memory), yet still good across the driving experience for my tastes. Glad I was able to utilize the various incentives in my purchase & sorry the major one appears to be going away. Last, but certainly important, fit & finish were most excellent & accolades to the Tennessee crew.

Accident waiting to happen!

Bought our Lyriq Sport 3 in Sept 2024. Was in love with the looks, comfort ect. Early on when backing out of the drive in the rain the car made a very hard stop. It was like I hit something. I got out and looked around and saw nothing. Inch by inch with constant braking I final backed enough to leave. Found that this is a common occurrence with Lyriqs. Now driving home early this month in perfect conditions my car at 45mph made a very hard brake to a complete stop. I took it into the service dept and they found nothing. This happened with stuttered braking and the screen flashing today. Back to the dealership. Have driven it 5400 miles so far. I do not feel safe driving this anymore. Horrible experience!

Tesla could learn a thing or two.

I’ve only had the car for a few days, so I cannot speak of reliability yet, however, it is very fun, incredibly comfortable and maybe the best looking car on the road (bias opinion). A few quirky things: sometimes door handles stick out briefly after starting it in the garage and backing out. Defrost is not strong enough on the left side of the windshield. Do not lock wheel out one direction or another or the tire hits the body, I believe. The hand brake to recharge the motor is very cool (left, top on steering wheel. This is not a paddle shifter). Go check it out. Also, this is a 515 hp car so if you push it, it’ll suck a lot of juice. Overall, I love the vehicle.

Great car but needs a few fixes

I have the 2024 Lyriq sport 3 and overall I love it. The car does have many rattles in it. Some I have fixed myself. Cadillac is no help cause there mechanics are all deaf. I added foam rubber in the ceiling to get rid of a few rattles up there. The low speed warning noise that sounds like a space ship when driving under 19 mph is to loud in the car and GM says it can’t be turned off. It’s there for the blind but what about for the deaf? I disabled two speakers one under the front pass side bumper and one under the pass rear bumper. There’s a two prong plug on the side of the speaker and you can stick a screwdriver in the little speaker grill and pop off the plug. Now it’s quite like it should be. I still have a vibration from the AC compressor that they say there’s no fix for yet and the knocking AC vents in the dash was mostly taken care of with a software update. I wish the Google maps showed Tesla charging stations but they don’t unless you do a search for them. Like on a Tesla if I plan a trip I want my map to show me Tesla chargers while navigating but it doesn’t as of yet.
