Key Features of the 2024 Cadillac LYRIQ

The 2024 Cadillac LYRIQ brings electric luxury to the forefront, marking a new era for drivers in Ontario. At True North Chevrolet Cadillac, we’re thrilled to showcase this model’s cutting-edge single-motor rear-wheel drive (RWD) and its robust dual-motor all-wheel drive (AWD) options.

These choices let you pick the driving experience that fits your style.

Cadillac doesn’t hold back with its Ultium battery technology either, setting a high standard for power storage and efficiency. This means not just more kilometres per charge but also smoother rides through North Bay streets or wherever your journey takes you.

Our team at True North Chevrolet is ready to help you explore how the LYRIQ can transform your drives with its innovative features and unmatched comfort.

Single-Motor RWD and Dual-Motor AWD options

Luxury vehicle shoppers in Ontario have exciting options with the 2024 Cadillac LYRIQ. Our team at True North Chevrolet Cadillac is thrilled to share that this electric model comes with two dynamic drivetrains.

Choose between a single-motor rear-wheel drive (RWD) and a dual-motor all-wheel drive (AWD). The RWD option delivers an impressive 340 horsepower and 325 lb.-ft. of torque, perfect for smooth, responsive driving on city streets or highways.

Range matters for electric vehicle owners, and the LYRIQ doesn’t disappoint. With the RWD setup, travel up to approximately 505 kilometres on a single charge – ideal for long trips or daily commutes without range anxiety.

Why does this matter? Because it makes your car handle better and stay stable on the road.

Charging your LYRIQ won’t keep you waiting too long, either. With Level 2 charging capabilities, you can add up to 51 miles of range in just about an hour at a speed of 19.2 kW.
