Cadillac elevates its lineup with the CT5 and the all-electric LYRIQ

Cadillac Middle East continues to push the boundaries of bold design and innovation with the arrival of the refreshed CT5 range, including the dynamic CT5-V and the pinnacle of performance, the CT5-V Blackwing. Launching alongside the all-electric Cadillac LYRIQ, these models signal a new era of power, presence, and precision.

The CT5 and LYRIQ together represent Cadillac’s strategic advancement, providing customers with flexible powertrain options tailored to their preferences, while maintaining high standards of performance, innovation, and design. Both models exemplify Cadillac’s dedication to exceptional craftsmanship, continuous progress, and delivering a unique brand experience.

Building on its legacy, the CT5 delivers a heightened sense of sophistication and control. The updated model showcases Cadillac’s signature vertical lighting, a reimagined front fascia, and a tech-rich cabin anchored by a sweeping 33-inch LED display. Inside, the experience blends next-generation connectivity with purposeful design, creating an environment that feels intuitive, immersive, and unmistakably Cadillac.

The CT5-V harnesses 360 horsepower and 550 Nm of torque from its 3.0L twin-turbo V6 engine, while the handcrafted CT5-V Blackwing, Cadillac’s most powerful production sedan, harnesses 668 horsepower and 893 Nm of torque from its 6.2L supercharged V8 engine. Performance comes standard, featuring magnetic ride control, Brembo brakes, available carbon-fiber packages that deliver sharp precision and confident handling on every drive.

Joining the CT5 is the Cadillac LYRIQ, the brand’s second all-electric SUV to debut in the region. Designed to deliver a uniquely Cadillac experience, LYRIQ pairs expressive styling with advanced electric performance. The dual-motor all-wheel-drive system generates 515 horsepower and 610 Nm of torque, with an estimated range of 463 km on a full charge¹.

The LYRIQ is capable of DC fast charging at up to 150 kW, enabling owners to add up to 130 km of range in just 15 minutes² at maximum capacity. A complimentary 22 kW Level 2 wall-box charger³ is included with the vehicle purchase, and a standard dual-voltage portable charging cable is also provided, supporting both Level 1 and Level 2 charging for added flexibility and seamless overnight charging at home.

Inside the LYRIQ is a serene, high-tech environment centered around a curved 33-inch 9K LED display that integrates infotainment in one panoramic interface. The immersive cabin is further enhanced by next-generation Active Noise Cancellation, ambient lighting with 126 color options, and a 19-speaker AKG Studio audio system, offering quiet confidence that defines luxury driving.

Cadillac’s commitment to connected vehicles shines through the integration of features like Google built-in⁴, offering seamless access to navigation, entertainment, and voice assistance, while the myCadillac app empowers drivers with real-time diagnostics, remote commands, and convenient charging management. These innovations, combined with in-car Wi-Fi capability⁵, redefine the luxury experience by placing intuitive control and personalized connectivity at the driver’s fingertips.

That commitment extends beyond connectivity. Both the CT5 and LYRIQ are equipped with a comprehensive suite of safety and driver-assistance features⁶, including Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning.
