electric 2026 VISTIQ Three
The Cadillac brand of General Motors Co. in Detroit has unveiled the final piece of its all-electric SUV lineup puzzle with the 2026 VISTIQ, a luxury three-row people mover.
According to the automaker, VISTIQ is engineered to provide "spaciousness for passengers in all three rows and offers technology that will elevate the luxury experience."
At launch, VISTIQ will offer three distinctive trims, Luxury, Sport and Premium Luxury. Coming in summer 2025, VISTIQ will be available in Platinum trim, with added performance elements and more interior and exterior color options.
"Cadillac continues to set the standard for American luxury," says John Roth, vice president, Global Cadillac. "The introduction of VISTIQ will continue to propel us into the EV future. With the addition of VISTIQ, Cadillac will be one of the only brands to offer an EV entry in every luxury SUV segment."
VISTIQ will be sold globally, including in the U.S. and Canada, with production starting in early 2025 at GMâ€TMs Spring Hill Manufacturing plant in Tennessee.
Like its big sibling ESCALADE IQ, VISTIQâ€TMs exterior has a swept-back windshield and Black Crystal Shield grille unique to Cadillacâ€TMs electric portfolio. The interior integrates with the design, inspired by modern architectural contours and structure framework, Cadillac says.
The vertical banding is said to be reflective of robust features in Brutalist architecture and helps frame elements in the interior, creating more refined lines and offering a balance of sophistication and practicality for modern luxury living.
"VISTIQ continues the Cadillac EV identity, including our signature vertical lamps front and rear, the illuminated pinstripe grille, a 33-inch diagonal high-resolution LED screen, and available 23-inch wheels, rendered in a proportionally stately and functional three-row SUV," says Bryan Nesbitt, executive director of Global Cadillac Design. "VISTIQ helps fulfill our showroom vision to offer the most artful integration of innovation with zero-emission propulsion."
Among VISTIQâ€TMs exterior features are:
VISTIQâ€TMs interior is designed to offer luxury, comfort, and seamlessly integrated technology. Its "comfort-conscious" third row has conveniences generally reserved for first- and second-row seats, including padded armrests, smartphone storage, cupholders, and USB chargers.
Other interior features include:
Powering VISTIQ is a standard dual motor all-wheel drive system. Standard chassis damping control and available Air Ride Adaptive suspension, combined with GMâ€TMs purpose-built electric drivetrain, contribute to VISTIQâ€TMs smooth ride and handling.
VISTIQ includes a 102-kilowatt-hour battery pack and offers 615 horsepower and 650 lb.-ft. of near-instant torque. Cadillac estimates VISTIQ will offer 300 miles of range.
"From the start, it was our teamâ€TMs goal to deliver a three-row SUV that provides exhilarating performance and intuitive technology, wrapped in the brandâ€TMs iconic design language," says Jeff MacDonald, North American chief engineer for Cadillac VISTIQ. "Bold, yet refined, the VISTIQ provides a comfortable ride while handling like a much smaller vehicle, delivering a sense of isolated precision."
Additional performance features include:
Technology included on VISTIQ provides owners and passengers with a personalized luxury experience. Its 23-speaker AKG7 Studio Audio system with Dolby Atmos, provides custom-tuned speakers and amplifier content for an undistorted, nuanced listening experience, Cadillac says. Dolby Atmos is a sound format that renders individual sound sources through separate channels to create an immersive 3-D experience.
VISTIQ comes equipped with Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) Bidirectional Charging capabilities, which when paired with the available GM Energy V2H Bundle, allows for the transfer of electric power from the vehicle and a properly equipped home during a blackout.
Offering features that prioritize safety and security while on the road include:
MSRP starts at $78,790, including destination freight charge, and excluding tax, title, and dealer fees. Dealer sets final price.
