2026 Cadillac VISTIQ: what it offers, what’s new, and how it stacks up. If you want, I can also compare it to similar EV SUVs.

What is the VISTIQ

• A luxury, three‑row electric SUV from Cadillac. 

• Positioned between the Cadillac Lyriq (two‑row) and the Escalade IQ (full‑size EV SUV). 

• First production in early 2025 at GM’s Spring Hill, Tennessee plant. 

Key Specs & Performance

Features & Luxury / Tech Highlights

• Seats for up to 7 people. 

• Premium interior features: massaging, heated + ventilated front seats, very adjustable (18‑way). 

• Large curved display: there’s a 33‑inch diagonal advanced LED display combining instrument cluster + infotainment. 

• Superb sound: 23‑speaker AKG Studio sound system, with available Dolby Atmos. 

• Suspension options: standard coil spring setup + available air‑ride adaptive suspension. Also "active rear steering” to improve turning radius/manoeuvrability. 

• Vehicle‑to‑Home (V2H) bidirectional charging capability (so the car can supply power to a home during blackout if equipped properly). 

Pricing, Trims, and Dimensions

• Base price starts around $78,790 (includes destination freight, excludes tax/title/dealer fees) for the Luxury trim. 

• Additional trims: Sport, Premium Luxury; Platinum trim coming later. 

• For example, Premium Luxury ~ $93,290; Platinum ~ $97,890. 

• Size / dimensions: Wheelbase ~121.8 in; overall width ~79.8 in. Passenger & cargo volumes vary by row. 

Pros & Considerations

Pros:

• Strong performance (fast 0‑60 for its class).

• Good range for a large, three‑row SUV.

• High‑end luxury and tech, especially in interior comfort and driver assistance.

• Useful features like bidirectional charging, adaptive suspension—these give it versatility.

Considerations:

• Cost is high—moving into luxury EV territory, pricing is well over many conventional three‑row SUVs.

• With EVs, actual range will vary a lot depending on conditions (weather, speed, load).

• Charging infrastructure / availability of high‑speed DC fast chargers could affect usability.

• As with many new EVs, early trims may see limited availability of certain options or colors until full rollout.
