Cadillac goes after Audi and BMW with new Optiq SUV for Europe | Autocar

Must read

Measuring 4820mm long, 2126mm wide (including wingmirrors) and 1644mm tall, the Optiq is a similar size to the Mercedes-Benz EQC.

The Optiq’s wheelbase is some 150mm shorter than the Lyriq’s, which “results in a more agile architecture”, according to Cadillac. 

Its cab-back exterior silhouette is claimed to offer “exceptional aerodynamic performance”. The design differs slightly to that of the Lyriq, which has a more rakish roofline. 

The front end is dominated by the large Black Crystal Grille, which incorporates Cadillac’s ‘vertical signature’ and a laser-etched pattern.
