Cadillac Lyriq Sales in Q4 Increased 500 Percent Over Last Year

The Cadillac Lyriq isn't exactly the newest electric SUV at the nation's dealerships, and you'd think that would play against it in the increasingly crowded EV market. But it's not. Instead of being cast aside like a Shein outfit worn once, the Cadillac Lyriq is on its way to having a surprisingly impressive year—and it's showing up its luxury rivals as it does so.

In General Motors' newly released Q1 2024 sales figures, Cadillac reported it had sold 5,800 Lyriqs through the first three months of the year. That's not a lot of cars if you're used to reading about deliveries of the likes of Tesla or BYD, but let's put it into perspective. That's a 52-percent jump from Q4 2023, and almost 500 percent up from Q1 last year. It's also a great deal of the way toward the 9,155 Cadillac moved in total across 2023.
