Cadillac Lyriq pricing to start under $75,000 – Roadshow [CNET]

There are some additional caveats to bear in mind. Firstly, it’s worth noting that Tesla’s model pricing and performance attributes vacillate on an almost seasonal basis, so it’s difficult to guess where Model X pricing will be when the Cadillac hits the market (if indeed Tesla is still selling the same vehicle at all). Additionally, the aforementioned Model X’s performance figures are realized with standard all-wheel drive, and WardsAuto says Cadillac officials believe that AWD on the Lyriq could shave off 20 to 30 miles of range. With over two years between now and when GM says it will deliver this new Cadillac, it’s impossible to know how the Lyriq’s numbers will line up against the competition, from Tesla or otherwise.

As it stands, Cadillac’s promising-looking new entry is only around “80%” finalized, according to Minter, with further pricing and vehicle specifics likely to trickle out next year. Production is reportedly slated to begin first in China, with US assembly coming online soon thereafter.

The takeaway? Just as your mileage may vary, so, too, may the Lyriq EV’s eventual performance and pricing figures.
