ParticipantYeah it does but I didn’t need to charge to get home so when I got in I hit the battery pre-condition button to start it and it’s a 70 mile drive home. Heating the battery is suppose to make it more efficient from what I understand so if I could pre-condition it from app for 30 minutes before I leave then I could possibly get 2.0 miles/KW to start drive home. Still learning.
ParticipantRaymond Ramirez, I’m not an expert but what I plan on doing is taking a withdraw from 401K and not have any taxes taken out so when I file my taxes next year I will owe up to $7500 and tax credit will take care of that. Another way would be to stop taxes from being taken out of SS or pension for the rest of the year to create a tax liability for next year, may not create $7500 but what ever it does will help.
ParticipantManual hood release, there is a key inside the FOB that book says will work on all doors but I’m not sure where you put the key into the door. The owners manual is online so you can check it out before you get your Lyriq. Warning it is 424 pages.
ParticipantMy dealer started with 10K markup got it down to 7.5K not happy but it was the only way to get one now and so I get the full 7.5K tax credit. My way of looking at it is I got the Debut which is loaded up, waiting for a Lux2 model starts at 67K and another 1.5K for the 19.2KW charger and it was up to 68.5K. Mine has the $1550 22″ rims so sticker price was 61,530. The Lux3 has 22″ rims standard for 70.6K plus charger. I could do without 19.2KW charger but it is standard on my model. I had heard that Cadillac made interested dealers pay $300K for the opportunity to sell electric vehicles they also had to install heavy duty lifts and buy a fork lift, but I don’t know if that was included in $300K.
ParticipantGot my Lyriq 2/20/2023 and love it but a few minor complaints. The door handles are neat but a simple recessed mechanical handle would of worked just fine, there is an electric motor on each door that pushes the door out. That is 4 motors that could go bad someday down the road. Glovebox button is on the infotainment screen so you can’t just open passenger door and open it you have to bring up the infotainment screen open a category and hit the button. Not something most people open that often but it could of been easier. After programming garage door opener to use it you have open controls and hit remote 1 button on infotainment screen, the bottom home screen has up to 6 buttons that you can drag different categories down to but you can’t open a category and drag something out of it and down to the bottom 6 spots. Previous vehicles always had 3 buttons you could program. So I have to open the controls button on bottom right then hit the remote 1 button. Come on Cadillac do a software update and put 3 programable remote buttons on home screen. Another software update that I would like is to have battery conditioning on the MyCadillac app, I go to granddaughter’s b-ball games here in northern Illinois and it would be nice to warm battery before the game get’s over. I went to her game the other night and driving home in 24 degree weather I was getting 1.1 miles per kilowatt.
