Cadillac Optiq

Cadillac Optiq

Cadillac is going all compact. Well, relatively speaking.

A compact Cadillac? Yes, that’s actually a thing although the Optiq, which you can think of as a BMW iX3 rival, is hardly small in character. It picks up Cadillac’s striking, sharp-edged design language from the more opulent Lyriq and sizes them down a bit. The range on one charge is nothing too special, but the massive curved 33-inch screen makes the cabin look interesting. Will Euro buyers take to a small Caddy, though?
