With Cadillac’s parent company General Motors known to be struggling with vehicle production all over the US. There was some considerable doubt on whether the first electric Cadillac will be out this year. In August, Electrek reported stating “my biggest question is will GM make enough of these?”. This brings down to the challenge of tackling semi-conductor chip shortage.

However, the plan for Cadillac seems to be going as planned. The live launch will be on Saturday at 4 P.M. ET / 1 P.M. PT. Below are the details to know about the vehicle in terms of range, speed, and charging. The vehicle is certainly luxurious and possibly isn’t eligible for the EV tax credit as it costs above $44,000.

Specifications

Cadillac Lyriq comes with a 100kWh lithium-ion battery pack. It is General Motors’ new and advanced ultium range, which comes with around a 300-mile range (480 km). It supports fast charging of 190kW, and with 10 minutes charge, it can go up to 76 miles (122 km).

The experience shared by Cadillac is stated as, “This is the spark. The dawn of a bright new era. Our electric future, rooted in more than a century of innovation, begins with an uncompromising electric SUV. Meet the Cadillac Lyriq. An EV that inspires its driver to charge forward to a greater purpose—with every sublime detail. Prepare yourself for our newest creation.”

Also, Cadilliac says it is ready to offer DC fast charging at 190kW for public. Which would enable customers to charge their vehicle in 10 minutes and travel accordingly. For homecharging their charging points will be at 19.2kW, which charges the vehicle up to 52 miles per hour. It has a large 33-inch curve display, which takes up most space on the dashboard.

Furthermore, the Lyriq will have Super Cruise, which can be used on the US and Canada roads. The second generation Super Cruise is a semi-autonomous software by General Motors, which allows some autonomous driving features. They include hands free driving, and automatic lane changing. The present booking is available for single motor 340 horsepower and 325 pound-foot (440 Nm) version. However, more models are expected to come in coming years.

Dodge Pauses Entry-Level Charger Daytona R/T for 2026 Amid Shifting Market and Tariff Pressures

The Dodge Charger Daytona R/T will not be part of the 2026 model year lineup, according to Dodge CEO Matt McAlear. While Dodge hasn’t completely ruled out the trim’s return in the future, the automaker has officially postponed its production for now. The reason? A combination of market shifts and uncertainties surrounding U.S. tariff policies. "Production of the Dodge Charger Daytona R/T is postponed for the 2026 model year as we continue to assess the effects of U.S. tariff policies,” McAlear said in a statement to Motor1. Instead, Dodge will sharpen its focus on high-performance offerings, like the Charger Daytona Scat Pack, and upcoming internal combustion alternatives. Scat Pack Takes Center Stage With the R/T trim off the table, the Daytona Scat Pack now becomes the sole all-electric Charger variant available for 2026. And it’s no slouch. Delivering 670 horsepower from its dual-motor setup, the Scat Pack is targeting mid-11-second quarter-mile times. However, the performance comes at the cost of range, 241 miles per the EPA estimate, a step down from the R/T’s 308 miles. That boost in performance also brings a steeper price tag. The Scat Pack will sit around $60,000 after factoring in the $7,500 federal EV tax credit. In contrast, the now-shelved R/T was expected to be a more accessible entry point to the electric muscle segment, slipping in under $50,000 with the same tax break. Lagging Sales, Overstuffed Lots Market data supports Dodge’s decision. Charger sales fell by a staggering 54 percent in 2024. The first-quarter sales of electric Chargers in 2025 totaled just 1,947 units, a mix of both R/T and Scat Pack trims. Meanwhile, Mopar Insiders reported that approximately 3,500 R/T units are still sitting unsold in dealer inventories. This lukewarm reception has highlighted a broader issue: despite the impressive specs, the brand’s electric offerings haven’t captured the hearts of traditional Dodge enthusiasts, many of whom remain loyal to internal combustion. The Sixpack Rises To address this, Dodge is introducing a new four-door variant, the Charger Sixpack, aimed at muscle fans not quite ready to embrace electrification. Powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine, the Sixpack will be available in both standard-output (420 hp) and high-output (550 hp) trims. Though exact pricing hasn’t been revealed, it's expected to slot in around the price point previously held by the R/T. The new platform, STLA Large, is designed to support both EVs and ICE models, giving Dodge flexibility to pivot as demand dictates. Looking Ahead While the Charger Daytona R/T may be gone for now, its future isn’t completely off the table. Dodge is keeping a close eye on market dynamics, government policies, and consumer behavior as it fine-tunes its approach. With the Scat Pack holding the electric torch and the Six Pack catering to combustion purists, Dodge’s strategy appears focused on streamlining its offerings while covering both sides of the propulsion spectrum. As more details about the 2026 Charger lineup emerge, muscle car fans and industry watchers alike will be paying close attention. The muscle car isn’t dead, it’s just adapting.
