Cadillac Expert Reviews

Cadillac has revamped the Optiq for 2026, adding a rear-wheel-drive version, increasing the power on the all-wheel-drive variant and bringing a new high-performance V-Series version to showrooms.

The 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V is one of the brand’s high notes, embodying all the duality expected of the badge.

The styling updates look good, and the new screens are impressive, but the 2025 Escalade takes a step back in terms of interior plastics and trim quality, which don’t keep pace with its ever-increasing price tag.

The all-new 2026 Cadillac Vistiq is remarkable for being unremarkable — it drives, works and feels like a conventional luxury SUV, but it features the silence and speed that comes with an all-electric powertrain.

The all-new 2025 Cadillac Optiq features all the great qualities of the luxury brand’s bigger Lyriq electric SUV, but in a tidier, more maneuverable package.

The all-new Escalade IQ prioritizes style and technology over usable space, with a focus on the driver and executive passengers rather than those in the rearmost seats.

The all-electric Lyriq is a classy, good-looking luxury mid-size SUV that drives like a classic Cadillac: big, heavy, quiet and — above all else — comfortable.

A 33-inch touchscreen and suite of subtle aesthetic changes make the refreshed 2024 XT4 a “killer app” in the fiercely competitive luxury compact SUV class.

It’s hard to top the kind of bang you get from the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V, powered as it is by a 682-horsepower, supercharged V-8 engine and swaddled with an ultra-posh cabin.

The new Sport trim level of the 2020 Cadillac XT5 doesn’t change its character much, but you’re left with a well-executed and roomy, if unexciting, SUV.
