Cadillac just released a teaser for its first electric V-Series model – the 2026 Lyriq-V. What can we expect from this high-performance crossover EV? Our own Alex Luft discusses the teasers and his expectations for the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V in detail on the latest Cadillac Society Podcast.
Here are some of the things we foresee for the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V, based on what we know so far:
Complete specs haven’t been released yet, but Luft expects the Lyriq V to have the same 102.5 kWh battery pack as the regular Lyriq. However, the V’s dual-motor setup will likely exceed the 515 horsepower and 450 pound-feet torque in the standard Lyriq AWD model. The finaly power output may match the performance of the upcoming Blazer EV SS, which boasts 595 horsepower and 645 pound-feet of torque.
We’ll know more about the capabilities of the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V as we get closer to launch and, of course, we’ll share those details as we have them. In the meantime, hit the play button on the video above to hear all of the detailed info.
