2023 Cadillac XT5: Rumors and What To Expect

2023 Cadillac XT5: Rumors and What To Expect

2023 Cadillac XT5: Rumors and What To Expect. The current generation of Cadillac’s mid-size crossover has been around since 2016 and it has few more years to go before we see a complete redesign. Therefore, it’s easy to conclude that the 2023 Cadillac XT5 will come without more important changes, especially if we consider the last year’s update, which has brought new features and a couple of new…

2023 Cadillac XT5: Redesign Is Getting Close?

2023 Cadillac XT5: Redesign Is Getting Close?

Cadillac’s compact crossover has been around for a while and most of us expect to see a completely new generation. According to the latest reports, the generation will debut in the next year, as the 2024 XT5. So, it’s pretty easy to conclude that the 2023 Cadillac XT5 will represent the final production year of the current generation. Therefore, it’s hard to believe that any bigger changes could…

2023 Cadillac Lyriq First Look: Quite Literally a Car of the Future

Cadillac enjoyed two years of increasing sales pre-pandemic, but MotorTrend hasn’t exactly been singing the praises of its heart-of-market XT4, XT5, and XT6 crossover vehicles. The brand hopes to change our tune with the 2023 Cadillac Lyriq (like the song), by giving it dramatic proportions and a brand new face, plus Tesla-esque electric performance, range, and technology.

Technically, the “show car” you’re seeing here is a concept, but Cadillac assures us it’s 80–85 percent production-ready. With the 2023 model year two years away, you can expect the final production Lyriq to look very similar with only some small details changing significantly.

Ultium Electric Architecture

Cadillac claims that by the end of this decade, almost all of its cars will be electric. This initiative will be spearheaded by the Lyriq, which will follow the 2022 GMC Hummer EV to market by a matter of months on the same new Ultium dedicated EV architecture that will eventually underpin the hand-built flagship Celestiq and other Cadillac models.

The platform will feature rear-wheel or performance all-wheel drive, powered by an under-floor structural battery featuring relatively novel nickel-cobalt-manganese-aluminum chemistry that supports 150-kW DC Fast charging and 19-kW Level 2 home charging. The batteries boast aluminum-intensive cathodes, which reduce the amount of precious, rare-earth (and sometimes ethically problematic) cobalt required by more than 70 percent compared to current GM battery technology. Large, flat, pouch-style cells will be ganged in “smart modules” that incorporate the control electronics, reducing complexity and simplifying cooling. Cadillac claims battery pack wiring is thereby reduced by 90 percent.

How Far Will It Go?

So far, Cadillac is only claiming “more than 300 miles.” Officials add that whatever the big number is for the rear-drive model, expect to subtract 20–30 miles for the performance AWD version.

Novel Charging Option

It would be foolish to propose a new electric vehicle that was not capable of 150-kW DC Fast charging, so naturally the Lyriq is so equipped. But it’s also designed to accept Level 2 charging at rates up to 19 kW—about double the 7–11 kW that typical home chargers deliver today. Of course, wiring a charger capable of handling that much juice will require a circuit good for 80–100 amps, which might prove to be a stretch for most existing homes. New mansion and condo/apartment construction can probably incorporate it, however, and workplaces could upgrade their parking lot charger network if the technology proves popular with its executives.

How Will Lyriq Perform?

The Lyriq concept that we are seeing is about two years out from production, so Cadillac isn’t ready to share power and torque figures, weight estimates, or many other specific details. We do know that what we are seeing is 80–85 percent production intent, that its center of gravity is expected to be 100 mm (3.9 inches) lower than the XT5’s, and that its front/rear weight distribution will be very close to 50/50. This will surely help deliver the same impressive flat cornering and pitch-free acceleration and braking we love on most other battery-in-floor performance EVs. The standard rear-drive and performance AWD models will both deliver rear-biased accelerative traction and driving dynamics, no doubt assisted by fast-acting magnetic ride control shocks.

Screen Time

The new Escalade set a pretty high bar with its 38 combined inches of curved OLED screens, but that’ll be old news by fall 2022 when the Lyriq hits the road. So its headline-grabber is a single 33-inch (diagonal) curved LED screen boasting “the highest pixel density available in the automotive industry today” (no numbers were provided to fact-check that boast). It’s said to be capable of displaying over 1 billion colors—64 times more than any other automotive screen. The screen was designed to look like it’s floating on the dash and tailored to the Lyriq—not purchased off the shelf. Its position and curvature were determined by ergonomic reach curves, and the high, horizontal orientation prevents the driver from having to look as far down and away from the road as with some vertical screens. And there’s more cool display tech: The windshield features two different head-up technologies—one like we’re used to down low, plus an augmented reality display capable of projecting navigation direction arrows right onto the roadway or highlighting the location of a destination building for example.

Mid-Mod Interior

Lincoln has made a lot of headlines with its mid-century modern interior design aesthetic, and Cadillac is tapping into that ethos in its own unique way, with spare ornamentation, lean horizontal graphics, and a cantilevered center console that doesn’t connect to the dash. The gap between the console and dash allows room for a drawer to slide open from beneath the climate-control buttons. Its blue-flocked interior is inspired by jewelry boxes. Another interior design innovation is wood veneer with a laser-cut pattern laid over bright aluminum that shows through, and the speaker grilles are backlit. Some interior components will likely be 3D-printed. The photos suggest this dash involves a lot of capacitive touch buttons, which we sincerely hope boast improved functionality relative to recent examples that struck a pretty sour note with us.

Lyriq Opera

What better way to capitalize on the quiet cabin of an electric car than with a 19-speaker AKG Studio audio system rather like the standard system on the Escalade. But the crisp, clear, in-studio sound of the music recordings isn’t the system’s coolest feature. The Lyriq’s system will feature a new, more comprehensive active noise canceling system that involves additional microphones and even some accelerometers mounted to surfaces that generate or transmit road and tire-cavity noise. Together, this array of sensors allows the system to more accurately pinpoint and eliminate more sources of noise and vibration, further hushing the inherently quiet cabin of this electric vehicle.

50-Light Black Crystal “Grille”

EVs don’t typically need quite as much grille as their combustion-powered counterparts do, but we humans expect to see a “face” on our cars, and Lyriq is showing us the new face of Cadillac. It’s an expressive one. When you approach the car, multiple lighting elements comprising the Cadillac crest illuminate in an animated fashion, after which a sequence of 50 LED lighting elements around the bottom and sides of the grille light up, working from the bottom center outward and upward. It’s a dramatic effect. That grille is flanked by trademark vertical signature lighting elements. We’re guessing that this façade will account for much of the 15–20 percent of this concept that has to become less cool for production.

In back, the traditional vertical lamps are augmented by a pair of wrap-around boomerang elements that start out just under the rear glass and wrap up the C-pillars. We’re told they get in on the approach lighting drama, as well. Above the coupe-like rakish rear window is a flow-through spoiler that helps optimize aerodynamic efficiency on the highway.

Superior Cruise and Self-Parking

Like the forthcoming Escalade, the Lyriq will get the latest iteration of Cadillac’s Super Cruise, which now helps support automated lane changes. It will function on more than 200,000 miles of compatible highways and will require an active Super Cruise subscription, cell reception, and GPS signal. Yes, Super Cruise is actually a subscription service and has been since it was introduced, a fact Cadillac has kept very quiet and hidden in the fine print.

Supervised remote parking allows the Lyriq to park itself with the driver inside or outside but still near the vehicle. It works in parallel or perpendicular parking spaces.

Eliminating Pain Points

Cadillac understands that there are still customers for whom the switch to electric seems daunting and potentially problematic. To make Lyriq more attractive to these folks, in addition to the long range and quicker recharging options, Cadillac intends to offer novel “seamless, frictionless transactions” and a unique ownership experience. Few specifics were provided, except to note that the MyCadillac app will be especially ingratiating and solicitous, anticipating customer needs and use patterns and tailoring the car’s systems to meet expectations.

Should You Hold Off Buying That Jaguar I-Pace, Tesla Model Y, or Ford Mustang Mach-E?

You’d have to be mighty patient to postpone an electric crossover purchase for two years, especially when you can’t know exactly what it is you’re waiting for. But this preview of the Lyriq certainly entices with its spare, sleek design, cutting edge (at least in 2020) battery chemistry and autonomy features, and futuristic yet pleasingly retro interior. For the moment, we’re optimistic that when the Lyriq eventually hums into our hands, we’ll be eager to sing along.

Cadillac is going back to real names for its cars as it switches to EVs The 2016 Cadillac Escala concept. Cadillac is changing its naming scheme back to actual words, ditching the alphanumeric convention that, to some, has felt less-than-personable these past few years.The rollout of the electric vehicles is the time well start to move back toward naming, said Cadillac President Steve Carlisle.The name change comes as Cadillac prepares to launch a host of new battery-electric vehicles, according to Automotive News.The original alphanumeric nomenclature was the brainchild of Johan de Nysschen, Carlisles predecessor, who also worked at Audi and Infiniti. The idea behind it was to give a more European feel to the brand as well as a clear hierarchy, with names like XT5 and CT6, but it also meant dropping historic names like Seville, DeVille and Eldorado. Were entering the decade as an internal-combustion-engine brand, he said. Well exit the decade as a battery-electric brand. Its the end of the ICE age for Cadillac.Cadillac will gradually be converted into GMs EV brand; it plans to have 20 all-new electric vehicles by 2023. As Carlisle stated, by 2030 the majority of Cadillacs will be electric.As for the brands current vehicles, theyll likely receive a refresh sometime in the future before fully transitioning to EVs. The brand-new Escalade is set to be revealed in February, and will be transitioned to an EV eventually, though not before it gets Cadillacs Super Cruise hands-free driver-assist system, with a few improvements, such as

Japan has permitted the use of cameras instead of rear view mirrors

Cameras instead of traditional mirrors long-boggling the minds of car designers on concept cars, this technology appeared in the nineties. Camera images are broadcast on respective screens in the cabin, while the lack of large “mugs” reduces the aerodynamic resistance of the car (and as a result, fuel consumption) and makes it safer for pedestrians.

Many automakers have already started the installation of cameras on a serial machine. For example, Honda and Luxgen on some models utilize a camera which, when activated, indicator (or after pressing a special button) display at the display image of the “dead” zone with the appropriate parties. And Cadillac appeared salon mirror with integrated monitor, which broadcast images from the second rear camera. But while the law requires all of these technologies combined with conventional mirror elements.

Left exterior mirror with camera for Honda Accord sedan, on the right salon mirror Cadillac XT5 crossover, which button turns the screen

Japan became the first country officially allowed to completely replace the traditional mirrors with cameras and monitors. Their willingness to put on the conveyors, the corresponding components have already announced the Japanese company Ichikoh and German Bosch, and Ichikoh experts believe that by 2023, similar technology will be equipped with nearly a third of the fleet of the country, there are about 2.3 million vehicles. Soon switching to camera can legalize in other countries, and in the European Union and China — already this year, and in the United States only in 2018.

Cameras instead of mirrors have long been used in some forms of transport — for example, on the subway (Photos minsk-metro.net)

Among the advantages of cameras over mirrors — the possibility of computer processing of images: in the dark it can “lighten up” and to designate a special high-contrast labels moving objects like pedestrians and other cars. However, there are drawbacks.

First, it limited the viewing angle: if the camera can already shoot wide angle image, with the displays there are a number of problems. The image should be broadcast into the cabin continuously, and therefore, the use of existing screens multimediasystem impossible — need separate displays, the size of which is naturally limited to the layout considerations. In addition, the viewing angle on the screen, you cannot change a quick tilt of the head, as is the case with mirrors. And secondly, if the mirror element can lose only as a result of mechanical damage, the new technology in addition to this, there is a risk of software glitches. To exclude or at least minimize the impact of these deficiencies will take time. Wait?
