SUVs overseas, Cadillac has been tight-lipped about how it’ll expand its local showroom offerings.

It has now announced it’ll have more to share in 2025, with more vehicles potentially arriving before 2026.

“We’ll make announcements next year around what other models will follow to put more entries into our showroom, so we’re not just going to be a Lyriq brand,” said Jess Bala, managing director of General Motors Australia and New Zealand.

“[Q2 or mid-2025] would be more [of an] announcement of what’s coming next and then obviously some lead time to get them here on the ground.

“We’re hoping to see other entries here by the end of next year – so a pretty fast follow which we’re very excited about.”

When asked whether the Optiq and Vistiq are on the cards, Ms Bala said, “all of the above”.

“They’re all stunning and they all play a very unique role and compliment each other very well.”

The Cadillac Optiq launched in China in early May this year, becoming the smallest electric SUV in the brand’s range, with a subsequent report by *** publication

claiming it would be made in right-hand drive.

The Optiq will be built in both China and Mexico, with ******** examples to offer either single-motor front-wheel drive 180kW/330Nm or 211kW/465Nm dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrains.

US-market models will get only a 224kW/480Nm dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain, with an 85kWh nickel cobalt manganese battery affording an estimated 483km of range.

The Cadillac Vistiq meanwhile is a three-row electric SUV, sitting between the Australia-bound Lyriq and the flagship Escalade iQ within the model range.

Due to launch in the US in 2026, it hasn’t yet been confirmed for right-hand drive markets, though it would serve as a competitor to the
