Cadillac's First Electric Vehicle 'Lyriq' Pre-Orders Begin on the 23rd

Top-Level Sports Trim Released Individually

Cadillac will begin accepting domestic pre-orders for its first all-electric vehicle, the Lyriq, later this month.

Cadillac Korea announced on the 7th that it will unveil the Lyriq for the first time on the 23rd and start pre-orders.

The Lyriq, a premium mid-to-large crossover (CUV), is the first model manufactured by GM based on the all-electric vehicle dedicated platform 'Ultium.' It is also Cadillac's first all-electric vehicle. Since its initial launch in 2022, full-scale sales began in 2023. According to U.S. market research firm Kelley Blue Book, a total of 9,154 units were sold last year.

The certified combined driving range in Korea is 468 km (494 km in the city, 436 km on the highway). This surpasses the Genesis GV70 Electrified (400 km), Mercedes-Benz EQE Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) with 404 km, and BMW iX3 with 344 km. The size measures 4,996 mm in length and 1,977 mm in width, making it larger than the Hyundai Palisade (length 4,995 mm, width 1,975 mm) but smaller than the Kia electric vehicle EV9 (length 5,010 mm, width 1,980 mm).

Cadillac Korea plans to reveal the actual vehicle for the first time domestically at GM's integrated exhibition space, 'The House of GM,' on the 23rd, and officially begin the pre-order process through nationwide dealerships. The price will also be announced on that day. Only the top trim, 'Sport,' will be released domestically. Considering that the Sport trim's starting price in the U.S. is $63,190 (approximately 85.73 million KRW), the domestic launch price is expected to be around 90 million KRW.

Future schedules and product information related to the Lyriq can be found through the 'Lyriq Newsletter' service or Cadillac's official website.
