Best-seller of Last Year Cadillac Lyriq 2026 Became More Expensive, but What's in Return?

A straightforward intrigue from Cadillac. Lyriq 2026 became more expensive, but more advantageous: Super Cruise already in base.

Best-seller of Last Year Cadillac Lyriq 2026 Became More Expensive, but What's in Return?

The electric crossover Cadillac Lyriq, which became a sales hit in 2024 with a growth of 210% and 28,000 cars sold, slowed down a bit in 2025: sales dropped by 28.8%. However, for the 2026 model year, Cadillac added features and slightly raised the price — hoping to maintain interest in the model.

The base version of Lyriq Luxury now costs $59,200, which is $605 more expensive than last year's. Versions Sport, Premium, and Signature also rose in price, except for Premium Luxury and Premium Sport, which became $100 cheaper.

But now all configurations have in their arsenal Super Cruise — a hands-free driving system previously available only in top versions. Also added are the Hitch Guidance and Hitch View systems — useful for towing.

With the new features, the Lyriq remains a favorable offer among premium electric crossovers. It is cheaper than the Porsche Macan Electric, EQE SUV from Mercedes, or Audi Q6 e-tron while outperforming in technology.

However, the terms for the start of sales of the 2026 model have not been announced yet — the 2025 version is still current on the Cadillac website. Those interested will either have to wait or hurry with the purchase.
