Cadillac confirms ‘bookends’ for NZ

Cadillac has confirmed it will be adding two additional EV models to its lineup in New Zealand with the Optiq and Vistiq.

These are described as ‘bookends’ to the Cadillac lineup locally where the Optiq will be a new entry-point in terms of size while the Vistiq is a large, three-row SUV sitting at the top. 

These are produced in right-hand drive from the factory in the US and when they arrive in 2026, they will join the Lyriq and Lyriq V in the showroom. It is said that both these models have been planned and engineered to be built right-hand drive from their inception. 

It’s all part of Cadillac’s global push into the luxury segment and these models will also be available in other RHD markets like Japan and Australia.
