The Cadillac revealed the 2026 Vistiq, its new three-row electric SUV, with a starting price of $78,790.

Situated between the Lyriq and Escalade IQ, the Vistiq comes standard with all-wheel drive, a 615-hp motor, and 649 lb-ft of torque, with an estimated range of 300 miles, although it has not yet been EPA certified.

The entry-level Luxury version starts at $78,790, while the Sport and Premium Luxury versions start at $79,290 and $93,290, respectively, with the top-of-the-line Platinum version arriving later, with prices potentially exceeding $100,000.

In terms of design, the Vistiq features an imposing look, with similarities to the Escalade IQ, such as the front grille with the iconic Cadillac crest and split tail lights. At 206.5 cm in length and 202.7 cm in width, it is longer than the gasoline-powered XT6 but smaller than the Escalade IQ.

The Vistiq also offers towing capacity of up to 2,268 kg and comes with two suspension options: adaptive damping control or air springs.

The Vistiq’s interior is luxurious, highlighted by the 33-inch curved digital dashboard and integrated infotainment system. It also features a five-zone intelligent climate control system and seven seats as standard, with captain’s chairs available for the second row.

Production of the model starts in 2025, with the Luxury, Sport, and Premium Luxury versions launching first, followed by the Platinum. The Vistiq is also compatible with bidirectional charging and can add up to 78 miles of range in just 10 minutes of fast charging.
