The future of Cadillac is all-electric -- and the future is here. With the launch of the Cadillac LYRIQ, the high-end brand relied on intensive market research and engineering brainpower to set a bold new course for luxury electric vehicle transportation. With premier technologies, high-performance features, and rapid-charging capability, the Cadillac LYRIQ is nearly identical to the concept vehicle -- and priced around $60,000. The Ultium battery platform enables a near 50/50 weight distribution of the vehicle and a lower center of gravity for a sporty and responsive drive. We sat down with Bryan Stewart, Global Program Engineering Manager for the Cadillac LYRIQ, who has more than 23 years of experience as an engineer at General Motors. As one of his most rewarding assignments to date, Bryan shared the engineering inspiration behind the Cadillac LYRIQ?s stunning design and the importance of delivering a quintessential luxury vehicle experience that's all-electric and distinctly Cadillac.
