Cadillac has unveiled the 2026 OPTIQ-V, an electrifying new entrant to its iconic V-Series performance lineup, bringing bold power, futuristic design, and trailblazing technology to the forefront of luxury EVs.
The OPTIQ-V delivers a Cadillac-estimated 519 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque, sprinting from 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds, thanks to its Velocity Max mode and standard dual-motor all-wheel drive.
Marking a historic shift, the OPTIQ-V is General Motors’ first vehicle to feature a native NACS (North American Charging Standard) port, aligning GM with the movement toward a unified, open EV charging ecosystem.
“This model is a statement of performance and innovation,” said John Roth, Vice President, Global Cadillac. “OPTIQ-V brings a youthful spirit and dynamic precision to the V-Series lineup while opening new markets globally.”

- An 85 kWh battery pack with an estimated 275-mile range
- Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance as standard
- V-Mode and Launch Control for tailored performance
- 21-inch satin graphite alloy wheels, optional carbon fiber elements
- Two exclusive colors: Magnus Metal Frost and Deep Ocean Tintcoat
