Video Summary

Here's a summary of the YouTube video review of the Cadillac Lyriq:

The 2025 Cadillac Lyriq is Cadillac's first electric vehicle. The Lyriq Sport 3, which is all-wheel drive with a dual-motor setup, starts at approximately $71,000 in Canada, and $60,000 in the United States.

The Lyriq’s main competition includes Genesis GV60, Genesis GV70E, Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV, and the BMW iX. 

The Lyriq's range estimator is fairly accurate.

The rear-wheel drive models have a range of up to 525 kilometers, while the all-wheel drive model can reach up to 513 kilometers.

The single-motor produces 365 horsepower, and the dual-motor produces 515 horsepower.

An upgraded Lyriq V model will produce 615 horsepower. 

For the all wheel drive model, 0 to 60 mph can be reached in under five seconds with traction control turned off.

The Lyriq has a 102-kilowatt hour battery.

The dual motor Lyriq has a towing capacity of 3,500 pounds, but the single motor is not designed for towing.

The steering wheel input feels somewhat delayed. 

The interior has a lot of room, is generally comfortable, and features a one-pedal drive that is smooth. 

However, the seat is flat, there are no leg extensions for taller persons, and the center console is very hard. 

There is an AKG sound system, which may sound better in other cars.

Regarding the tech and interface, the 33-inch screen has a good user interface and is a pretty good setup to work with. A rotary dial helps navigate the screen. Apple Carplay is available. The car has a good 360 degree camera.

The color of the vehicle is Argent Silver. A lot of people think the rear of the vehicle is funky. The Cadillac logo has been put on the charging port for the car.
