Checking out the interior of the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq.
TranscriptGREG MIGLIORE: Hey, everybody, it's Greg Migliore. Welcome inside the Cadillac Lyriq. Pretty nice place to spend time. I'm going to start out over here. First of all, it's a really nice kind of color setting. It looks very much like almost old-school Cadillac mid-century modern in here. Some light silver, black, gray materials. Very elegant and very cool, I think. Let's head out over here some nice sort of black wood kind of trim. Need to queue up a massage? That's the button you do it with right there. You can also adjust things a little bit however you want it to go.
All right, let's come on out over here. Some other basic functions over here. Take a look at the screen. Plenty of information here. It's easy to use. It's not too big, but it is good sized. Coming out over here, some steering wheel controls. It's a chilly day, so I have the steering wheel heater on. You can also queue up Super Cruise, which is available on the Lyriq.
Back out over here, come on down here, this is sort of the knob if you will. Reminds me a bit like what BMW did and others have copied. It's very usable, very good. Some storage right here, some storage out here where you get some nice brushed metal-like material there. It says Cadillac spelled out. Out over here, that, to me, gives you almost like a 60s kind of vibe. It looks pretty nice.
Back out over here, hey, I'm thirsty. More would add a little bit of sort of metallic kind of trim. Over here AKG speakers. That's another look at the materials. I've been very impressed with the interior of the Cadillac Lyriq. This is all electric. It's one of the more seamless driving experiences I've had in a Cadillac, or in really any electric vehicle. When you accelerate it's quick, but then when you lift, the regeneration doesn't sort of really get in your face, pull you back. It's much more even. So I've definitely been impressed with that.
That is the interior and a little bit of a mini review of the Cadillac Lyriq. Unless you're on the short list for a Celestic, for now, from a design standpoint, this is about as close as it gets. And it's a pretty cool crossover. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
