The Cadillac VISTIQ, set to debut in early 2025, marks the latest addition to the brand’s growing lineup of electric vehicles, joining the LYRIQ, OPTIQ, ESCALADE IQ, and CELESTIQ.
As Cadillac’s first electric three-row SUV, the VISTIQ combines advanced electric performance with a luxurious, high-tech interior, but its bold exterior design truly sets it apart.

Zhou Fang, Cadillac’s lead creative designer, highlights the VISTIQ’s striking upright front end as a defining feature. The model boasts Cadillac’s largest Black Crystal Shield grille, available in two designs: a pinstripe motif for the refined Luxury trim and a mesh pattern for the performance-focused Sport trim. Both variations reflect the vehicle’s art-deco-inspired elegance and athletic appeal.
The VISTIQ pays homage to Cadillac’s heritage with its tornado-shaped D-pillar sail panel, a modern nod to design elements seen in classic models like the CTS-V Sport Wagon and 1960s sedans.
Another standout feature is the Mondrian pattern embedded in the quarter-panel glass, an abstract design that ties into Cadillac’s motorsport legacy. This detail not only enhances the exterior but also casts intricate shadows on the interior, creating a dramatic ambiance for third-row passengers.
With a combination of bold confidence, refined luxury, and unmistakable American identity, the VISTIQ distinguishes itself from European and Japanese competitors, embodying Cadillac’s vision of next-generation electric vehicles.
