With 7.1/10 for performance, this is a car tuned for daily driving rather than excitement — perfectly capable on the commute, unremarkable on a back road. On technology it rates 9.0/10: a modern, well-integrated suite that compares favorably with anything at this price point.
Priced from $58,590–$75,474, 105 MPG, seating 5, the Cadillac LYRIQ sits in the premium tier of the ev category. At 7.3/10 for value, it delivers fair pricing for what's on offer, though the best alternatives in this price range score slightly higher. At 2 years old, it's recent enough that the core feature set holds up well against current competition.
Verdict: Nothing about the 2024 Cadillac LYRIQ will scare a sensible buyer off. Keep an eye on reliability if those matter to you; otherwise it does what a good ev should — quietly and competently.
