Reviews SummaryAfter a shortened 2023 introduction, the 2024 Lyriq is the first full model year of Cadillac's midsize electric SUV. The Lyriq is the luxury version of the GM Ultium EV platform used in other EV SUVs, including the Chevrolet Blazer EV, Honda Prologue, and Acura ZDX. With ample power, just over 300 miles of range, and a properly upscale interior that finally looks different than a Chevy, the Lyriq is a good contender if you're shopping for a higher-priced, two-row electric SUV. We tested a fully-loaded Lyriq Sport at nearly $80,000. Verdict: As an EV, the Lyriq is average. As a Cadillac, it’s much better than anything else in the showroom. Traditional brand hallmarks, such as a cavernous back seat and a gentle ride, blend with big screens and significantly improved material quality. But it's still not up to the luxury standard that Cadillac promises. | |
Reviews SummaryThe Cadillac Escalade is a known quantity in the luxury SUV space. If you want big power, plenty of space, and you want it all from a comfortable seating position, the Escalade has you covered. In the past two decades, Cadillac has also offered V-Series sedans, coupes, and wagons with hotter engines and swifter performance, but the Escalade and the V-Series have never crossed paths…until now. The 2023 Escalade-V is unlike any other V-Series vehicle, or frankly any other vehicle on the market. We’ve seen big SUVs and sporty SUVs, but never a performance version of one of the largest SUVs on the market. Just as crucially, it is the first time a V-Series vehicle will have to combine family-hauling and towing duties with brisk acceleration and handling. | |
