Reviews Summary

“Terrain” is a misnomer as applied to this compact crossover SUV from GMC. The name suggests far more off-roading capability than is available from this restyled Chevy Equinox, and the new AT4 trim level, which equips the 2022 GMC Terrain with standard all-wheel drive (AWD), “sport-terrain” tires, and a steel front skid plate, ought to come with a disclaimer. Based on our testing, the new 2022 Terrain AT4 is all show and no go, as in: “No, you can’t go there in this small SUV.” Not without damaging it, anyway.

Reviews Summary

Cadillac has rarely lived up to its expectations in the last 40 years or so, but the Lyriq is just one example that shows that the brand is finally rising to its historic standards. It starts with its beautiful cabin that boasts distinctive design and high-quality materials. It’s also very spacious and functional thanks to clever storage and user-friendly tech. The Lyriq’s EV credentials are also solid, if unremarkable, when compared to recently introduced competitors.

Verdict: The Lyriq had a bit of a rocky start because earlier model years were plagued with tech issues and build-quality problems, but this latest 2027 test vehicle had none of those. It remains a must-drive luxury EV despite those recently introduced competitors boasting impressive specs and new technologies.
