Took delivery of a 2024 Lyriq Sport 3 AWD just 2 weeks ago. It is an incredible SUV.
The Lyriq is by far the better looking inside and outside plus much more convenient controls.
Nothing in the segment really competes with the sleek futuristic design of the Lyriq imo. It truly stands out and the sport grille has definitely grown on me.
Agreed
Yes it makes the Tesla look like a Hot wheel
@@vm1cccthat’s not hard
I just bought a 2024 Lux 2 with super cruise. MSRP a little below $70k. I am loving w. ❤
I'm in Saudi Arabia. I am planning to get one. But the dealer here still does not have it. Is there a way to import from US?
👍🏻👍🏻 Money not taken into consideration. The Cadillac takes it on looks alone.⚡
I'll have to go with the caddy because it has better build quality hopefully they can increase the range
I think the range of the caddy is much better than the model Y. I have a model Y long range which is supposed to be 535KM but in reality I get 350KM!! It's brutal. I bet the GM gets more than the stated range because my chevy Bolt certainly did. Needless to say, I'm considering selling my Y for this Lyric.
FYI... Lyriq Sport and Luxury are at the same level. Sport isn't an upper trim level. Just different exterior trim and grille lighting.
I don't like Ev vehicles, but I would choose the Cadillac, becouse everybody wants Tesla and I wonna be original. Great review as always. Greetings
Right on!
Have you driven an ev? Try it you might change your mind
Definitely the caddy. I don't think I would like the idea of having to use the screen for everything.
You get used to it very quickly. You can use the 2 thumb wheels on the wheel to control volume, temp, and wiper speed. It's actually quite simple. Tesla also has the most logical menu layout, but I'm not happy there is no sat radio. Yes, I know I can stream from my phone. Been doing that for 4 years and it's clunky.
An experienced Tesla driver does not tinker with the 15" display while driving. Almost all vehicle functions are controlled by voice commands. Admittedly there is a learning curve to driving a Tesla. Physical knobs & buttons are not needed. Just learn to use voice commands for operating a Tesla.
In the past, I have owned a Porsche, many Audis, and many Lincoln Continentals. I also rent a Tesla Model 3 for two weeks a year when I take a trip to California. . When comparing my Cadillac Lyric to them I called my Lyric my “so-so” car. So quiet, so smooth, so powerful, so smart, and when in the self driving mode, so relaxing. Every EV buyer, or ICE buyer should test drive a lyric
Very nice video. You hit a lot of the important points as well as how you articulate it. Although I kept thinking that you look like Jimmy from Shameless lol. Nice job!
This is the first review I'm seen from you that compares two cars . . excellent job . . I also like the fact that you have someone else doing the video work while you talk, which makes the video look very professional. ( favorite line of the video "I Will Get On It . . WHY NOT" )
Haha thank you
I own a 23 Tesla MY LR with the $2k boost (more power). The Lyriq was newly released upon my purchase. I compared the Lyriq, Mach-E, Polestar 2, and GT6. I think most, but not all of them from the factory look better than the Y, inside and out (mine is wrapped and accessorized to my liking). However, the price, range, acceleration, tech, and supercharger network won me over. The Mach-E was the best runner up.
This was a pretty good comparison video but it did feel rushed or biased when it came to the Y. You showed your dislike which was pretty funny to see. "Backseat (Model Y), not much to see here." Forget their speakers, legroom, headroom, and cupholders...whatever 😂. The Lyriq is hands down the looker and luxury winner of all vehicles mentioned, but Cadillac ruined my experience with a previously owned XTS. Their screen was a well documented disaster and they refused to fix it because the vehicle was no longer under warranty. I took that into consideration when I wanted an EV. I hope they have better luck with their cool looking, elongated infotainment screens these days because it is a beauty.
Keep up the good work. Thank you for the video.
It wasn’t under warranty so you’re out of luck as with most manufacturers including ELONS dream. Other stealerships may have taken care of you if you had done some homework and made a few phone calls
You did what was best for you. I'd also pick the Model Y just because of their supercharger network. Now, if and when the Lyric start using Tesla's superchargers, or whoever with a reliable network as Tesla. Then I'll consider the Lyric.
Great video Kenny. I'd pick the Lyriq hands down because you see Teslas everywhere here plus it does not seem that they have really updated the styling. Your videographer did a great job!
Thank you
Fun review. Wish it reviewed more of the actual ride. Trying to figure out what my first EV will be. This one is top 3 so far.
You are right. The Cadillac compares favorably to the Tesla, and definitely feels like the newer, fresher vehicle. The Lyriq has some great wheel choices, too! Enjoyed the video, especially the faster pacing and the new angles afforded by the addition of a cameraman!
Camera man was a big help!
Thank you for the review and comparison. Cadillac. ❤
I really enjoyed your review, well done! I just bought the Tesla Model 3 and my neighbor just bought the Cad Lyriq. The Tesla has more tech and range, the Cad is better quality. I chose the Tesla for range and self drive, my neighbor the Cad for driving clients around. Both choices make sense, we are both happy.
You make a great point! I’m glad you liked the video
A note on the outside door handles on the Tesla. They are designed like GM door handles from the 80's in that you are supposed to push the button with your thumb and pull the handle with your hand. So for ease of erganomics, you use your left hand to open left hand doors, and your right hand to open right hand doors. Fun review. I look forward to watching more!
Thank you!
No door handles in the 80's were aerodynamically flush. Christ.
@@johnroberts9922 True. However, I wasn't saying they looked the same. I was saying they were designed to be operated the same way. Push in with the thumb, then pull out with the fingers.
Loved the video! What about cabin sound? I had heard that the Lyriq has an annoying humming sound. Did you notice that?
I didn’t notice that myself
The humming sound is the sound when the car goes less than 25 mph. It’s not really annoying but you can hear it when driving slow thru a parking lot or approaching a stop sign etc.
love cadiilac
The highest sport trim is really sexy in the lyric.
Good review nice fast pace. The caddy is everything the Tesla has lacking. Screens in the right place , luxury beautiful interior, physical buttons , very intriguing. Except that it's General Motors.
I live in Arizona and have the Model Y. The glass roof although tinted will still heat up the car considerably in the summer. I have a sunshade that I will put on the roof during the hotter months to help.
I had a feeling it would still do that
I go for the Lyric
if we are going by looks and the bling factor, that GM specialty, but when we get down to what really matters .. tesla has been in the game a lot longer they have mastered there software , writing which is hard i mean every car has issues, but i trust there Sofware a lot more then the bling factor . of Gm,,maybe in a few more years when Gm really gets into...
All of this stuff you mentioned is great information, but there is one area you really didn't cover. The difference between the Computer Systems. I like how Tesla shows you the road and all the cars around you while you're driving. Does the Lyriq do that too? I like that Tesla has a lot of cameras all around the vehicle, does the Cadillac have all those cameras too? I would like to know more on the differences of the Computer Systems/Technology of the cars, not just the differences of the way they look, drive, and feel.
I own a Tesla and drove a Lyriq. Really nice SUV. But until there's a reliable charging network to support it on long trips, no other BEV is going to displodge Tesla. Yes, Cadillac has committed to making their cars compatible with the Tesla Supercharger network, but at first it will only use an adapter that is not yet available.
If the charging network was the same for both, which would be in your driveway?
I charge my Lyriq at home whilst I sleep.
I'll be damned if I'll be waiting in line with people for 30 minutes a pop.
I DON'T DO ANY ROAD TRIPS. My Lyriq is my NYC daily cruiser.
If I did Road Trips, I'd use a Chrysler Pacifica Minivan or my Jeep SRT.
@@PassportBrosBusinessClassAnd I've enjoyed your videos too!
I have the 24 Lyriq, and just this past weekend we drove it on a 4 hour roadtrip from Houston to Dallas which actually took 4:45 mins because of charging. We stopped and charged at Electrify America Fast charger 350 kw for for 45 mins and when we arrived in Dallas we still had a charge to do all the things planned. On the way home we went to a Tesla station in Ft Worth that had a magic dock. We charged there for 30 mins to get us back to the Electrify America Charger where we charged 45 minutes and then made it all the way home with 25% charge left. I think it is definitely doable for shorter trips. The charging networks are growing and will be easier to use in no time. We plan to drive it on a 9 hour trip this Summer and we are looking forward to see how that goes. 😊
Its a shame your camera person didnt tell you you have something white on your facial hair. camera person gotta be a bit better at pointing that out. Overall great video filled with much needed info on the two EVs
love my lyriq
I got the model y and my wife got the lyriq!
Which one do you prefer?
In 5 years or so will you be able to get a compatible battery pack with the caddy
What do you mean?
By far one of the best lyric videos. If I buy-your video will be a big reason why
The battery-pack repair ability of Lyriq; would hold up the resale value of the vehicle.
As would all these EVs
@@XX-166 Can’t say much but do your homework, some of them are not modularize with spray foam in one pack.
I’m still not completely sold on any electric vehicle. I live in Texas so I would never get any car with a glass roof with no shade. Also, there are no Tesla dealers in Texas and the closest service center to me is nearly 200 miles away. I think I will stick with ICE for now. I might revisit an electric car when everyone uses the same charging standard.
I have the Lyriq 24 and live in Houston. My Lyriq has the glass roof and a shade that closes to keep the sun out. It works great. We also have driven to Dallas from Houston twice now and have had no issues charging. That said, I can’t wait for more charging options to be able to extend our roadtrips. The Lyriq is a very comfortable and smooth ride and make roadtrip so much more enjoyable. 😊
If Tesla had made an illuminated front grill. They would have said how gimmicky that is. Tesla would have never lived that down. The Tesla you get Autopilot Standard included, no charge. The standard autopilot is allot better than super cruise, a better deal.
My Lyric is in the shop for the 2nd time in 6 months for complete electrical shutdown requiring it to be towed from my garage. Never had a problem with my Tesla.
Ok Elon
Ur right the Tesla is too minimalistic
Shouldn't you compare Lyriq vs Model X?
cadillac king
The Lyriq is looking good thank god they kept physical buttons for climate control. Cadillac have almost convinced me to go electric ⚡️
Cadillac all day. The Tesla's styling is about a current as an iPhone 6 and has about as much character.
Hmm $40k car vs $80k car
By the way, IMO - the Model X would edge the Caddy.
Not for the fit or finish and not for the money asked for an X
Elon is going to whoop this guys ass!!!
I watch highlights, but they mean nothing to me. Let's see if they actually keep him & what he actually does on the field. I've seen too many good highlights & then the guy does nothing on the field aka Nakobe Dean
I will never buy a GM product. I spent 60k on a Chevy Silverado only to get noisy and slipping differential at 20k miles. Plus everyone I’ve ridden in feels like a big boat. Took it back and went German. German know how to build cars. I’m curious about EV’s. It only made sense to go with the company with most EV experience and Supercharging infrastructure. I probably would of chosen a Cadillac if they wouldn’t of abandoned there EV research back in the day. But they did and now they have to play catch up.
Know the cars before you attempt to compare them. If you drive both for a week you will know where everything is.
Would have been great to have a ICE version
My Y has FSD - Full Self Driving. Just plug in a destination in my screen and away it goes. You do have to touch the steering wheel occasionally. I don't believe the Lyriq has FSD capabilities. Please clarify that to your audience. Meaning that my Y will transport me to the exact address/destination, not just highway driving.
I own a Tesla since 2019 with FSD it doesn't drive alone from address a to b... I local streets it's still a disaster. And the car is not comfortable
I will start this by saying I am not a fan of EV's. That being said, I work for a Cadillac dealership and drive a Lyriq every day. The in town range I am seeing is in the 350-375 range and I have checked that against actual mile driven and it is very accurate. I have driven very little at highway speeds but the little I have the range would definitely be less according what I have seen on the indicated draw. I have been presently surprised about how much I have enjoyed driving the Lyriq compared to the Escalades i was driving previously. I still think EV's are a long way away from being ready for long distance, over the road trips but around town, I really do think they are ideal.
Do you prefer driving the Lyriq for its size and acceleration over the Escalade? Or why do you prefer it over the Escalade?
@@703Speed There is a reason that the Escalade is classified as a truck. It rides more like a truck than a car although the last gen of Escalade is better.
This comparison doesn't make sense. It should be the Lyriq vs. The model X
GREAT review! Lyric for me. Tesla’s are a dime a dozen
More like a nickel before taxes
Have a Tesla 310 miles o please more like 240
I've heard about that lol
With the air conditioning off and a tail wind
I own a Nissan Ariya but after watching this video I’m definitely gonna look into a Cadillac an ev Vehicle
Tesla hasn't updated its design language since inception. Getting tiresome. They were once the leader but everyone else has caught up or excelled
He doesn’t know that you can use voice commands to do what you want you want in a Tesla or that the sun can really heat the car up in the summer months
Minimalist design is such a turnoff for me
Well, I am a Porsche guy, but I also have a Subaru suv for our electric car. I have Tesla Y because the software is better. And I really like the idea of having a basic car without all the clutter of knobs everywhere. I really like it being open and free and just one laptop in the center. I know a lot of people don't like that, and if you're a car enthusiast, you do not get a Tesla, but I am really loving the Tesla, it's fun to drive. It's quiet and it's real, clean and basic. Plus the price is better.
If you really wantna talk cars, then we could talk about my Porsche GTS 992. Respectfully fuck the electric caddy and Tesla.
But yes, I do own a Tesla.
It's the sheep in me.
No offence but if your going to test the cadilac against a Tesla. It should be the S not the Y. The S was ment to be luxury. The Y was not, even though it gets categorized as luxury.
No Tesla is a luxury vehicle
The difference is that Cadillac was made by car makers while Tesla is made by data engineers
With Tesla, all you get is an iPad on Wheels. NO THANK YOU!
No need to compare dude! Lyriq is the epitome of supreme luxury which is unbeatable by the shabby and boring exterior design of Tesla! The plain empty interior in that Tesla to the spaceship interior of the Lyriq! Tesla owners step aside please! It is Cadillac unrivaled luxury.
Cadillac starting 58k vs Tesla 45k(dealer inventory just like the lyric) for the one you tested, additionally the person testing keeps comparing super cruise to full self driving...its not the same. Super cruise is closer to the tesla enhanced autopilot $6000 option. Super cruise will never be at FSD level of driving...it will never navigate city streets like FSD. Also tesla will be way easier to charge vs Cadlilac lyric.
Most car experts I have heard or read say there is nothing better than GM's super cruise.
Super Cruise>
The Cadillac super cruise is just a nit compared with Tesla's FSD.
@johnroberts9922 doesnt Supercruise only drive on highways in restricted areas... .. while fsd can drive on city streets any where in the usa and highways anywhere in the usa?
fsd can also hit parked cars, building and pedestrians@@videosuperhero100
Tesla has ugly design ,the interior and exterior of Cadillac looks luxury, when i sit in a Tesla I feel like I’m sitting in a desk it’s empty from inside 😅 not luxury enough
I have no allegiance to either of these brands but these two vehicles aren't really comparable. The Lyriq is on another level in comfort and finish.
THERE IS NO COMPARISON.
I just bought a 2024 Lyriq AWD Luxury 3. I got it loaded. Power moonroof, 19KW charger, 22's, Black roof...
$80,000.
Even a fully loaded Model Y Performance isn't that high.
But even if you just look at the cars, the Lyriq's exterior is far more elegant. Its interior is far more elegant.
The Lyriq is a better luxury car than ANY of the Teslas including the S and X.
They are PREMIUM but they aren't "Luxury".
The Model Y's interior is amateurish.
All that said: I believe the Model Y, is the better buy for a "work car" because it's less expensive and the supercharger network Tesla has is second to none.
I charge my Lyriq at home on a step-2 Lectron V-box. (It's charging right now in fact).
Excellent summary, Passport. I purchased a Lux 2 AWD Lyriq.
My days of driving a bare bones car that looks, feels and rides like an 80’s base model Chrysler product are behind me. I wanted , and was willing to pay for, a luxury car…..plus I can’t stand Musk.
Great write up Big Truck! Funny - I follow you on my personal TH-cam channel. Cool to see you on my main.. You hooked it up with the CTIC stock back a few years ago when it was a penny stock.. I had paper hands and sold it like an idiot before it blew up..
@@703Speed
CTIC was definitely one of my best calls. I made a chunk of money on that one.
"Very well put together". A phrase you'll never hear from a Tesla owner. Also, every comparison review with a Tesla Model Y or 3 should start with the auto wipers.
I would always against tesla since I saw them coz they were ugly looking , 300 miles range combined with their pricing . It was a POS until 2022 , when most brands started adding evs . Now , tesla look normal , offer more range than other brands at lower prices with improved charging speeds . Tesla is way more better now than other brands now 💀💀💀💀💀
Tesla lies about its range. Anyone knows that.
These vehicles are each different class, the model y is not a luxury vehicle, a more apt comparison would be the Blazer EV
“Right for Me”?!? How about this; neither.😠 EVs are unreliable, dangerous, and depreciate ahead of all else.🤔
Comparing the Cadillac Lyriq to Tesla is somewhat insulting 😊. The Lyriq is light years ahead in terms of quality, built and luxury. I had the Y and everything squeaks and rattles.
Cadillac basically invented luxury, and the price is right for that. The overprice of a Tesla makes zero sense to me, because it just isn't luxury at all. It's not even real leather it's vinyl seats. But that's just me. It's just unsafe also to be fiddling around with their iPad when you can use dedicated buttons
Tesla too boring for me
Pouch cells are dangerous. Thankfully, GM is moving away from them. We do not want another Chevy Bolt fire disaster. Some parking garages still do not allow Bolts.
"One of the key factors that contributed to the strain in the relationship between GM and LG Energy Solution is GM’s decision to switch from prismatic (pouch) battery cells to cylindrical battery cells in their future electric cars." Pouch
format cells burst open at very low pressures (∼50 psi) and when the
liquid electrolyte and vapors fall on the hot surface of the pouch,
they ignite and experience a fire.
Great to know.. Thank you.. Learn something new everyday
Technically every car is at risk of catching fire. Even with the old battery packs are 5x less likely to catch fire than an internal combustion engine.
Battery technology needs to improve. The Cadillac gets 307 miles of range. Have fun taking that on a 1,000+ mile road trip. It will probably be somewhere around 250 to 260 miles (I’m guessing here) due to having the heat or ac running. The battery also degrades overtime so that 307 miles will go down each year. I think these battery packs need to get to about 500 miles per full charge to make it worth it.
500 miles would definitely be ideal
Actually there is a guy who does mileage videos testing the mileage range and his teethe Lyriq got about 330 miles in real long distance driving.
As a Tesla owner it’s well known that the EPA range is never achieved. But there are videos of the Cadillac surpassing the EPA estimate. Once they are able to use the supercharger network long trips won’t be a problem. I’ve taken my model y performance from CT to FL without an issue. We stop every couple hundred miles regardless to eat, poop, change my little daughter, etc. Not many people would drive 500 miles at a time.
I generally stop every two hours anyway for a smoke but I don't stop for more than 15 min. Having to stop for over an hour every couple hrs would not be convenient.
@@richardmorris7063I’ve never stopped for more than 30 minutes to charge my Tesla. The Lyriq is less efficient and heavy so has to have a huge battery to compensate. It takes longer to charge the huge battery.
Lyriq is soooo much better ❤
Wrong comparison. Lyriq is a beauty and comfortable.
You compared the base model Y to that caddie, which is $20+K more expensive. A better comparison, given the price difference, would be to the Model X, which that caddie will certainly lose. IMHO my Model Y's glass roof is overly tinted, which assures that the car will not heat up in the summer. Basically you stacked the deck for the Cadillac kid.
This isn’t the base model y, it’s the long range
the only difference between the long range and the base is battery size and range this comparison is 2 vehicles in different class luxury and mass market
@@703Speed
Agreed 👍
Model x is less comfortable and cost 20k more
Sorry , but comparing the Cadillac to a Tesla Y doesn’t make any sense. They are two different classes of cars.
Yeah the Tesla is classless
GM and how to market/sell these EV cars is nuts. That Lyriq is a Equinox with a big battery where the engine was, not designed to be an EV from the ground up. Failure IMO, who would buy that thing? Tesla can be had for well under 50k
This is completely untrue. The Lyriq is not based on any previous ICE vehicle, it is a ground-up EV design.
Tesla,hands down. Cadillac is bankrupt in 2 years.
Keep smoking that good stuff
Tesla has cameras all around, Cadillac does not. Big mistake. Accessory not an Easter egg.🫤GenZ ?
Cadillac has been offering their video camera recorder as an option on Cadillacs for years. Try again.
Just slam the door on the Telsa and the Cadillac. The Tesla sounds like it’s about to fall off.
I was going to include the door sound closing, bc the Tesla sounded so bad when the door closed 😂
Actually the Lyriq does too. I believe it was Cadillac about 7 years ago was the first with an overhead 360 degree view of the vehicle.
Actually the Cadillac has the same rear and side view cameras as well as a front camera. It would be nice if they had something similar to sentry mode in the Tesla though.
