2024 Info Now Coming January (2023)
*Previously Dec 2022

Looks like additional units will be converted to 2024. More than first thought. 2023 Production numbers get smaller.

We could see 2024 LYRIQ production start February 2023

LYRIQ training @ Indianapolis Motor Speedway was yesterday. 94mph was the fastest i went in the LYRIQ. All Smiles. The handling was the most impressive. Really got to push the vehicle. Tires chirping away through the turns. Trust me, you will be blown away. Love the one pedal driving. Google Assistant is very impressive when you start using it.

Fun Fact. Cadillac went through 200 different wheel / tire designs before settling on what they came up with for LYRIQ. The attention to detail on this and other parts of the LYRIQ make it stand out from the competitors.

Thanks for the updates. So where does that leave the May 2022 orders for 2023 AWD and RWD? If production of MY 2024 starts in Feb 2023, are those now all going to be 2024 MY? Will the 2023 pricing and features be honored?

All great questions. Nothing further has been communicated from Cadillac. 23 AWD production starts end of year.

That seems not possible - at least that would be headed to customers. None of the May 2022 people have orders accepted or TPW's, and those are generally weeks out once they do get issued. And RWD's were supposed to be before AWD, so I don't understand the timing. Doesn't seem inline with reality, if Debuts are still being made in January and February as confirmed by TPW info.

Quite confused regarding the status of the May orders for the 2023's. Realize Cadillac hasn't shared with you or anyone - thanks for all your info!

2023 production has to be extremely small. Cadillac has never shared overall production numbers. Wait and see. All we can do.

Well who knows , it could turn out for the good. Cadillac could honor the May orders pricing with similarly equipped 2024 but with door handles better, HUD available etc. Since they may start as early as Feb folks could have 2024s in their driveway by March.

Yes the glass is half full 😋

I hear you, but nothing about this rollout gives me 'glass half full' confidence. More of - get your vaseline ready, because we're all about to get bent over by Cadillac. The orders we placed in May are starting to look like a mirage. The car itself I'm sure is great.

 

[New Guy]

Apologies if this is confidential. I don’t want to put you on the spot…well perhaps I do just a little😁

How many orders and preorders do you have? How many monthly allocations do you expect?

Trying to guess whether I’ll be driving my new Lyriq back to PA while running the heater or the AC.

Well if they try and drop a large price increase on us I will move on. Jumping up very much makes a lot of newly released or about to be released EV competitors that I would move to.

In fact if the price goes up a bunch, what EVs would you guys consider comparable ?

That’s the problem. Comparable alternatives come at very not comparable prices.

Have they shared when anyone (press, dealers, someone else?) will get hands on an actual AWD model? Are there preproduction ones out there?

Not that we know of.

Thanks for the update. The more the time pass, cadillac is getting more secretive (less communicative on the plans) Its really frustrating

Lot of supply chain issues still to this day. Massive undertaking. It's very tough to sometimes pinpoint when things will happen.

 

[Valtor]

I would hazard a guess that all 2023 orders that are not specced with only the options that were available for Debut Editions are the ones that will be converted to 2024 orders (E.g.: 2023 AWD and 2023 orders with exterior colors other than Satin Steel or Black).

So if we have basically ordered a "DE" in May, we should get a 2023.

I think we are all glad you started this thread. Are you?😉

You mentioned google assistant. I know it can be used to change climate control temp for example. Can google assistant roll down the windows?

We didn't go over every command. Nav, Radio, Temp controls, weather, charging station routing. Probably a lot to still learn.
