2023 Cadillac Lyriq Review, Specs & Price

2023 Cadillac LyriqLyriq, an electric SUV from Cadillac, was far from production-ready when it was first unveiled last year. Even the side mirrors on the automobile are missing. However, the company is showcasing the Cadillac Lyriq 2023 in a production-ready model, and it looks just like the concept, in advance of the first electric vehicle (EV) going on sale early next year.

The Lyriq concept features distinct LED-coated grille, sharp edges, and slim headlights as it transitions from show car to street legal. The huge wheels and the side-mounted camera from the initial style aren’t present in the final product. Cadillac replaced them with regular side mirrors and 20- or 22-inch wheels. For improved visibility, a somewhat modified door construction was also included. However, not much has altered generally. The exterior color options for buyers are Satin Steel Metallic or Stellar Black Metallic. Noir or Sky Cool Gray are the two cabin color options.
