Cadillac Lyriq: A Comprehensive Ownership Experience with Industry-Leading Benefits

Cadillac is redefining luxury electric vehicle ownership with the Lyriq, offering an impressive suite of benefits designed to provide peace of mind, convenience, and cutting-edge technology. Alongside its world-class design and innovation, the Lyriq comes with an array of warranties and service packages, ensuring a hassle-free ownership experience.


Unmatched Warranty and Service Coverage

Every new Cadillac Lyriq comes with a five-year, unlimited-kilometre factory vehicle warranty, covering repairs and defects to give owners confidence in their investment. Additionally, Cadillac includes a five-year roadside assistance package, ensuring that drivers have support whenever and wherever they need it. To further enhance convenience, Cadillac offers a five-year complimentary scheduled servicing program, allowing owners to maintain their vehicle without the added worry of servicing costs.

Beyond these standard protections, the Lyriq’s GM battery technology is covered by an eight-year/160,000km Electric Vehicle Propulsion Battery Warranty. This extended coverage underscores Cadillac’s commitment to reliability and durability, ensuring that the heart of the vehicle—its battery—remains in optimal condition for years to come.


Charging Partners and Exclusive Benefits

Cadillac recognizes the importance of convenient and efficient charging solutions, which is why it has partnered with leading providers to enhance the charging experience for Lyriq owners.

  • ChargeNet Partnership: Cadillac has teamed up with ChargeNet to offer customers a $400 charging credit with every Lyriq purchase, providing easy access to an extensive fast-charging network across New Zealand.
  • Evnex Home Charging Solutions: Cadillac has also partnered with Evnex to supply customers with premium, New Zealand-made home chargers. Evnex’s technology aligns with Cadillac’s commitment to sustainability and advanced design, ensuring seamless home charging with minimal impact on the grid and environment.


Exclusive Home Charging Offer

For a limited time, customers who purchase a new Lyriq before March 31, 2025, can have an Evnex E2 (7.4kW single-phase home charger) installed free of charge at their residence. This offer makes home charging more accessible, providing a convenient and efficient way to keep the Lyriq powered up.


As an added incentive, customers who opt for a home charger installation can increase their ChargeNet charging credit from $400 to $1,200, maximizing their ability to charge at public stations across the country.


The Future of Luxury Electric Driving

With a strong focus on customer satisfaction, Cadillac is making the transition to electric vehicles smoother than ever. The Lyriq’s extensive warranty coverage, premium charging benefits, and commitment to cutting-edge technology solidify its position as a leading choice in the luxury EV market. With Cadillac, driving electric is not just about sustainability—it’s about innovation, convenience, and unparalleled support for every journey ahead.
