What Are All the Cadillac EV Models Available Today?

Right now, Cadillac offers five Cadillac EV models: the LYRIQ, VISTIQ, OPTIQ, Escalade IQ, and Celestiq. Each one is a genuine Cadillac — refined, well-equipped, and purpose-built — but they each occupy a clearly different role in the lineup. Here's a closer look at what makes each one worth considering.

CADILLAC LYRIQ

Mid-Size Luxury EV SUV · 326 Miles Est. Range · 5 Passengers

The LYRIQ is where Cadillac's electric story really started to take shape, and it's still the model that draws the most attention on a test drive. It's a mid-size SUV in footprint, but the interior feels anything but — that 33-inch diagonal LED display stretching across the dash makes it feel genuinely futuristic. The electric Cadillac experience starts here for most buyers, and it's a strong first impression.

With an estimated range of around 326 miles and fast-charging capability, the LYRIQ handles Arizona's distances comfortably. Rear-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations are available, depending on how much performance you want out of the equation.

LYRIQ Highlights

  • 33-inch diagonal LED display with intuitive Google built-in integration
  • 326 miles of estimated EPA range (RWD configuration)
  • Available Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance on compatible roads

CADILLAC VISTIQ

Three-Row Luxury EV SUV · 305 Miles Est. Range · 6–7 Passengers

The VISTIQ is what happens when Cadillac takes everything good about the LYRIQ and stretches it for real-world families. It's a three-row Cadillac electric SUV with seating for six or seven, which means it doesn't ask you to sacrifice anything to go electric—same premium materials, same Cadillac refinement — just more room.

The VISTIQ is built for the kind of family that's done compromising. If the two-row options feel a bit tight for your situation, this is the answer. Strong performance, an available AWD setup, and a beautifully executed interior that doesn't make the third row feel like an afterthought.

VISTIQ Highlights

  • Three-row seating for up to 7 passengers with genuine rear-row comfort
  • Signature Cadillac vertical lighting and sculpted exterior design
  • Up to 5,000 lbs. of max towing

CADILLAC OPTIQ

Compact Luxury EV Crossover · 317 Miles Est. Range · 5 Passengers

The OPTIQ is Cadillac's most popular electric gateway, and it earns its spot in the lineup. It's a compact crossover, which makes it easier to maneuver through Tempe traffic and park in tighter spots — but it's still unmistakably a Cadillac. The Cadillac EV DNA is fully intact here: the attention to detail, the quality of materials, the technology stack.

For someone who's been on the fence about going electric, the OPTIQ is a smart place to start. The price point is more approachable than that of the larger models, and the range is strong enough for everything Tempe and the surrounding Valley require day-to-day. Don't let the "compact" label fool you — the interior is well-proportioned and genuinely comfortable.

OPTIQ Highlights

  • Most accessible price point in the Cadillac EV lineup
  • Compact footprint with a surprisingly comfortable and refined interior
  • Full suite of Cadillac safety and technology features standard

CADILLAC ESCALADE IQ

Full-Size Luxury EV SUV · 465 Miles Est. Range · 7 Passengers

The Escalade IQ is a statement. It takes everything the Escalade nameplate has always stood for — presence, luxury, capability — and brings it into the electric age without losing a single bit of what made people love it in the first place. It's the flagship Cadillac electric SUV, and it's built to show.

The range figure alone is worth talking about: up to an estimated 460 miles on a charge, which puts it at or near the top of any EV range conversation. Inside, a 55-inch LED display spans the entire dash — it's not a subtle vehicle. The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension keeps the ride composed even with all seven seats filled. For Escalade loyalists who've been waiting for the electric version, the wait is over.

Escalade IQ Highlights

  • Up to 465 miles of estimated range — among the longest of any full-size EV SUV
  • 55-inch diagonal LED display spanning the full dashboard
  • Air Ride Adaptive Suspension for a smooth, commanding ride in any configuration

CADILLAC CELESTIQ

Ultra-Luxury Hand-Built EV Flagship · 303 Miles Est. Range · 4 Passengers

The Celestiq isn't just a car — it's a statement about where Cadillac is headed. Every single one is hand-built and essentially custom-ordered, with buyers working directly with Cadillac to spec out materials, colors, and configurations that don't exist anywhere else. It's the kind of ownership experience that's rare even among the most exclusive automakers.

The Celestiq is Cadillac's answer to what ultra-luxury looks like in an electric world, and it's exceptional. A full-length panoramic smart glass roof with four individually adjustable zones, hand-stitched interior surfaces, a four-zone personalized audio and climate system — this is what sits at the very top of the Cadillac EV model range. It's not for everyone, but the fact that Cadillac builds it says everything about the brand's ambition.

Celestiq Highlights

  • Hand-built to order — every Celestiq is essentially a one-of-one vehicle
  • Magnetic Ride Control that automatically adjusts shocks to showcase premium comfort
  • Adaptive All-Wheel Drive that improves traction, acceleration, and more

Which Cadillac EV Is Right for Tempe Drivers?

Arizona's climate and road mix actually play well with the whole Cadillac EV lineup. The longer-range models like the Escalade IQ make Phoenix-to-Flagstaff trips stress-free. The OPTIQ is perfect for daily Tempe commuting with overnight home charging. And Cadillac's compatibility with the broader DC fast-charging network makes any of these models practical to own and run day-to-day.

Heat management is a real consideration in the Valley. Cadillac has engineered thermal battery management systems into these vehicles to handle temperature extremes, so you're not fighting the Arizona summer every time you plug in. The quiet cabin insulation also helps — when it's 110 outside, a serene, cool interior makes a big difference on any commute.
