What’s New for the 2025 Cadillac Lyriq

The Lyric was introduced in 2023 and has already received a number of updates for the 2025 model year. The base Tech trim has been discontinued, which means the Luxury trim is now the entry point. That means more standard features. The Luxury and Sport trims offered include more power and more range for the 2025 model year.

Design

The Lyriq has a bold, futuristic design, with a clean version of the Cadillac “shield” grille and a fastback design that blends coupe and sedan design traits into a crossover format. The Luxury and Sport trims come with 20-inch alloy wheels and are available with 22-inch alloy wheels. The Sport trim also features racier styling touches.

Powertrain

The standard battery across all versions of the 2025 Lyriq is a 108-kWh pack. The Lyriq is offered in a single-motor rear-wheel-drive (RWD) version and a dual-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD) version. The RWD model makes 365 horsepower, and the AWD makes a combined 515 horsepower. The range for the single-motor variant tops out at 326 miles, while the dual-motor tops out at 307 miles. With DC fast charging, the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% charge in about 45 minutes.
