Cadillac LYRIQ vs. Tesla Y

Comparing Power and Range

You can read about how these two models compare below, but you might want to see how the LYRIQ performs in person. If you’re near Fontana, Ontario, or Riverside, you can stop by Mark Christopher Cadillac for a test drive.

• The Cadillac LYRIQ: The LYRIQ is the stronger option, as the Single Motor RWD model boasts up to a Cadillac-estimated 340 horsepower and 325 lb.-ft. of torque. It’s important to remember that the LYRIQ is a Cadillac model, so you can expect it to have the smooth handling that the brand is known for. As for your range, the Single Motor RWD LYRIQ can get up to an EPA-estimated 314 miles.
• The Tesla Y: The Tesla Y offers reliable performance, but it falls slightly behind the new LYRIQ in terms of power. Both models charge fairly quickly, so they’re great for long road trips.

Take a Look at the Tech Inside

Electric models are cutting-edge and new to the market. While models like the LYRIQ and the Y already boast a futuristic design, you might be surprised by the advanced tech that you find in your cabin.

• The Cadillac LYRIQ: The first thing you’ll notice about the LYRIQ is the fact that it has a huge 33-inch Diagonal Advanced LED Display. This screen is where you’ll find important info like your current speed, and it’s where you can find all your favorite apps. The LYRIQ Tech trim comes with other impressive features like Google Built-in, Wireless Phone Charging, and more.
• The Tesla Y: You can expect to have a beautiful 15-inch Touchscreen with this model. While this screen is refreshing and fast, it’s less than half the size of the LYRIQ’s 33-inch Diagonal Advanced LED Display. As for the other tech features, you can expect to have Bluetooth, Wireless Smartphone Charging, and more.

A Closer Look at Your Cabin

While the technology might steal the show, you can expect these models to come with other amazing features.

• The Cadillac LYRIQ: The Cadillac LYRIQ’s front seat has a few tricks up its sleeve. You can opt for available Massage Seats and Ventilated Seats with this model, which the Y doesn’t offer. This model is also compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, which is another huge advantage that it has over the Y. Finally, these two cars have a lot of safety features in common, but the LYRIQ offers standard Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and a Rear Seat Reminder.
• The Tesla Y: The Tesla Y stands out with its all-glass roof, but it’s neck-and-neck with the LYRIQ when it comes to features. They both offer Heated Seats, Keyless Entry, Leather Upholstery, and even a Navigation System.
