The Cadillac Lyriq is a large luxury electric SUV that gives Australian buyers an American-flavoured alternative to the established premium EV crowd. For 2027, the local range has been simplified with the Luxury grade dropped, leaving the Sport AWD at an unchanged $90,000 before on-road costs. Its updated dual-motor electric drivetrain brings stronger torque, sharper acceleration and improved efficiency, while the new battery means less driving range and slower charging than the previous version. The Lyriq’s appeal centres on bold styling, a roomy SUV cabin and relaxed all-wheel-drive performance suited to city use, highway running and family duties. It’s aimed at buyers who want a well-equipped premium electric SUV with size, comfort and presence, plus a point of difference from the more familiar European choices.
