TL;DR
  • The LYRIQ has a certified range of 663 km, but Cadillac quotes a more realistic 463 km for daily use in Middle East conditions.
  • The LYRIQ supports 150 kW DC fast charging, which adds up to 130 km of range in about 15 minutes.
  • Blackwing is part of the updated CT5 range now available at select Cadillac showrooms in the UAE.

Cadillac has rolled out two updated models in the Middle East: the all-electric LYRIQ and the refreshed CT5. One runs on electrons, the other on high-octane fuel. Both aim to look sharp and feel sharp, whether you’re cruising Sheikh Zayed Road or crawling through traffic in Riyadh.

The CT5: Still a Sedan Worth Noticing

Cadillac has given the CT5 a facelift and added some serious tech inside.

  • New front-end design with vertical lighting
  • 33-inch curved LED display in the cabin
  • Tech-forward interior with connected features

You get the base CT5, the performance-focused CT5-V, and the no-nonsense CT5-V Blackwing. The V model pushes 360 horsepower from a twin-turbo V6, while the Blackwing is a beast with 668 horsepower from a 6.2L supercharged V8.

This car isn’t just about speed, though. Features like magnetic ride control and Brembo brakes mean it handles as well as it hauls. And if you’re into carbon-fibre details, those are an option too.

LYRIQ: Cadillac Goes Electric, and It Shows

Cadillac’s LYRIQ joins the growing lineup of luxury EVs in the region.

  • Dual-motor AWD setup with 515 horsepower
  • 463 km real-world range on a full charge
  • DC fast charging adds 130 km in 15 minutes

You also get a 22 kW wall-box charger included, plus a portable dual-voltage cable. That means whether you’re charging at home or on the road, you won’t be left stranded.

Inside, the LYRIQ feels like a spaceship. The 33-inch 9K LED display stretches across the dash, ambient lighting offers 126 colour choices, and the AKG Studio sound system packs 19 speakers. It’s quiet, techy, and a long way from the loud petrol engines Cadillac used to be known for.

Connected Tech, Built-In Convenience

Both models come with Google’s built-in services and Cadillac’s own app-based controls.

  • Google Maps and Assistant are integrated
  • myCadillac app for remote start, diagnostics, and charging
  • In-car Wi-Fi (UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain only)

Everything’s designed to work together, so you’re not juggling five different apps. It’s all designed to work, especially for drivers who prefer to stay connected.

Safety Kit Comes Standard

Safety isn’t optional here. Both cars come loaded with:

  • Forward Collision Alert
  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Lane Keep Assist with Departure Warning

Of course, none of this replaces actual driving. But if you do lose focus, these systems have your back.

Available Now

You can find the LYRIQ and CT5 in select showrooms across the Middle East. Pricing hasn’t been revealed yet, but expect premium tags, especially for the Blackwing and higher-spec LYRIQ models.
