2025 Cadillac LYRIQ Consumer Reviews
Pricing
battery propulsion system
I purchased a 24 Lyriq 1/11/24. It has been in the shop more time than I have driven it. Two warning lights came on and the dealer could only identify one of them. They said it needed a new download. After over a week, they said it needed an entire new battery. I used to work for gm 32 years and have purchased 100’s of vehicles, have owned 12 electric vehicles since 2012, Volts and Bolts and now Lyriq. Considering all the poor reviews, including mine, I am totally shocked at the end result. Every gm car i have owned as well as company cars, this is by far the worst. I am thinking Lemon law.

Would not recommend to anyone at this time
I wish I understood prior to purchasing this car, how often I would actually be without it. I absolutely love the car…when I have it! I have had to take it in about every three weeks due to service lights regarding something or other. One saving grace is that our car dealership service area is wonderful and they get me a loaner car each time and address my needs. But having to bring it in so often and being given a gas car to drive anyways is less than ideal. I am seriously considering pursuing a lemon law with this vehicle and waiting until the car is more reliable. Again, the car itself is beautiful, smooth, great luxury EV, but I rarely have it in my possession!

Again and Again
My ‘24 luxury Lyriq has been towed 3 times due to 12 volt battery issues. Other issues include large battery dropping a lot of electric charge just sitting in garage(service states needed an “update”) again. It’s been in service different times totaling 17 days. Everytime whether it’s the automatic windshield wipers, ac, 1 pedal driving switching off, cruise control malfunction, parking bake disengaging, headlights coming on in garage for no reason, all are fixed by a computer update that has to be done in Cadillac’s service department. I’m sure the Cad. Mechanic and service Dept. is as disgusted as I am to have to take it back again and again. It’s not what you expect when you buy a brand new car at that price!

Solid car for the price
Out of all the EVs I have driven, this is probably the best equipped in this price range. To get the equivalent features you will spend 10-15k more. Only a few cons... 1) Software, while this is temporary issue and the software keeps getting better it's still not 100% there. Some things are a challenge until you learn where the feature is (e.g. good luck figuring out how to power the radio on and off). 2) The center console panel in front of the jog dial seems flimsy. While the rest of the car is solid, this seems to move & flex when you push buttons. Would have prefered this part to be out of metal for a more solid feel. 3) A manual that matched the car would be great. The manual seems to be a lot of cut & paste from other vehicles and it doesn't always line up with the actual menu or buttons in the Lyriq, e.g. there is a section on HUD... the Lyriq never had that option.
