The luxury EV SUV segment is a booming market right now and no luxury manufacturer can afford to not be in it. This is where Cadillac has decided to enter the world of electric vehicles with the Lyriq. It’s a stylish SUV that wears the design language we expect to be on most new Cadillacs, or at least the brand’s electric ones.

Available in two basic configurations, entry level models will have a 340 hp single motor powering the rear wheels. Higher trims will get all-wheel drive and a dual motors set-up, good for about 500 hp.

How GM Ensures the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq is Ready for Winter

Indianapolis. Nürburgring. Kapuskasing?

General Motors’ northern Canadian testing facility doesn’t quite have the globe-spanning clout of other automotive destinations. But for those in the know, it’s a big deal: a 272-acre playground where almost every production model is put through a battery of brutal tests before it gets the stamp of approval.

The folks who work here are understandably protective. Auto writers rarely venture inside the gates, and the premises is teeming with motion-sensing cameras with facial recognition—along with camouflaged prototypes. At nearly nine hours north of Toronto, Kapuskasing isn’t exactly quick hop and a jump away for prying eyes, either. Lured by the promise of driving the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq in precisely the conditions EVs tend to struggle with, I recently spent a day at the GM Cold Weather Development Centre. I learned not only how Cadillac’s EV functions in truly frigid temperatures (-25 degrees Celsius / -13 degrees Fahrenheit), but how GM is preparing for the electrified future.
