Cadillac unveiled the latest addition to its electric vehicle portfolio, the 2026 VISTIQ. This announcement follows shortly after revealing the 2026 Lyriq-V and cements Cadillac as one of the few brands to offer an EV entry in every luxury SUV segment.
The VISTIQ, cheekily dubbed “the baby Escalade,” is a luxury electric three-row SUV expected to arrive in dealership showrooms in early 2025.
VISTIQ provides drivers a smooth riding and handling experience and features a dual-motor, all-wheel drive (AWD) system. These capabilities allow the SUV to handle more precisely and with increased agility, like a smaller vehicle, without sacrificing power.
It also has 615 horsepower, which allows it to accelerate from 0 to 60 in 3.7 seconds, and has an impressive 300-mile range. Additional aspects such as the chassis damping control and Air Ride Adaptive add to the smoothness of the ride. At the same time, the Active Rear Steer will improve the vehicle’s turning diameter. It also features Road Noise Cancellation, providing a quieter cabin with less ambient noise.
The VISTIQ is all about comfort and has three-row seating to maximize passenger capacity without sacrificing precious legroom. It also has convenience-boosting features such as padded armrests, smartphone storage, USB chargers, and intelligent five-zone climate control.
VISTIQ also comes with advanced technology to personalize the luxury experience, including a 23-speaker AKG Studio Audio system with Dolby Atmos.
It also features Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) Bidirectional Charging, which, when partnered with the GM Energy V2H Bundle, allows the vehicle to transfer power to the home during a power outage.
It also has many Driver Assistance features, including Blind Zone Steering Assist, Side Bicyclist Alert, Forward Collision Alert, OnStar Automatic Crash Response, and Night Vision.
VISTIQ will be available globally, with a starting MSRP of $78,790 and three initial trim options.
Production is set to begin at GM’s Tennessee plant in early 2025, and dealers should expect the VISTIQ to arrive in their showrooms in early 2025.
