Sell your Cadillac EV directly to us for a real, no-obligation offer, usually in under 15 minutes. We use EV transaction data and the details that matter on your Lyriq, Optiq, Escalade IQ, or Vistiq, with no fees and free nationwide pickup.
Cadillac's battery-electric lineup spans four distinct vehicles: the Lyriq, a midsize luxury SUV sold since 2023; the Optiq, a smaller compact luxury SUV that joined for 2025; the Escalade IQ, a full-size three-row flagship SUV; and the Vistiq, a three-row SUV sized between the Optiq and Escalade IQ. If you are ready to sell, start with the exact model, model year, trim, and drivetrain you have, so we can make an offer built around the right vehicle rather than a generic Cadillac estimate.
That distinction matters because these are not variations on one platform. The Lyriq and Vistiq share a 102 kWh battery family, the Optiq uses a smaller 85 kWh pack, and the Escalade IQ uses a battery pack more than double the Lyriq's capacity. A buyer evaluating your Cadillac EV needs to know which model it is before anything else, and then needs the trim, drivetrain, mileage, battery condition, and equipment to understand the specific vehicle.
The key details to have ready are straightforward:
Those details let us assess your Cadillac EV as the specific electric vehicle it is, not as a generic luxury SUV. We buy Cadillac EVs directly from you nationwide. Most sellers receive a real offer in under 15 minutes, with no obligation to accept it.
Once you have an offer, you have seven days to decide. There is no fee for getting the number, no charge for the guided smartphone self-inspection, and no deduction for pickup, paperwork, or closing costs if you sell to us.
Cadillac's four EVs sold across the 2023 through 2027 model years each have their own battery, drivetrain, and buyer profile, so the badge alone does not establish value.
Cadillac's four EVs sold across the 2023 through 2027 model years each have their own battery, drivetrain, and buyer profile, so the badge alone does not establish value.
The Lyriq uses a 102 kWh battery across its 2023 through 2026 run. EPA range is 312 miles for the 2023 RWD, 307 to 312 miles for 2024 configurations, 303 to 326 miles for 2025 configurations, and 285 to 326 miles for 2026 configurations, including the performance-oriented Lyriq-V. Trim names include Luxury and Sport, with rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions available depending on year.
The Optiq is Cadillac's smaller electric SUV, sold for 2025 through 2027, with an 85 kWh battery. Published EPA estimates are 319 miles for 2025 RWD and 307 miles for 2025 AWD, 278 or 250 miles for 2026 configurations, and 317 miles for 2027 RWD or 303 miles for 2027 AWD. Luxury and Sport trims apply here as well, and drivetrain is a meaningful part of identifying your exact vehicle.
The Escalade IQ is Cadillac's full-size, three-row electric SUV, sold for 2025 and 2026. It uses a battery pack over 200 kWh, roughly double the Lyriq's, with Cadillac-estimated range up to 460 miles for 2025 and 465 miles for 2026. Trim names include Luxury and Premium Sport configurations, and this is a substantially larger, heavier vehicle than the Lyriq or Optiq, so it should never be compared against them directly.
The Vistiq is a three-row electric SUV sold for 2026 and 2027, using the same 102 kWh battery family as the Lyriq. EPA range is 305 miles with the standard 11.5 kW onboard charger and 300 miles with the optional 19.2 kW charger for 2026; for 2027, Luxury and Sport are listed at 305 miles while Platinum is listed at 300 miles. Every Vistiq has dual-motor AWD.
Warranty coverage is useful background for a buyer, even though it is not part of how we set an offer. Cadillac EVs generally carry an eight-year or 100,000-mile battery and electric-component warranty, with GM repairing or replacing the battery if capacity falls below 70 to 75 percent of original capacity within that period, plus a three-year or 36,000-mile basic warranty. A newer Cadillac EV generally has more of that coverage remaining than an older one, depending on its in-service date and mileage.
Because these four models differ so much in size, battery capacity, and market segment, the most useful first step is simply confirming which one you have, its model year, trim, and drivetrain, before comparing it with anything else.
Owners sell for reasons specific to this vehicle and to where they are in ownership:
Your lease is ending, and you want a clear buyout or payoff path for your Cadillac EV.
You are moving to a different EV that better fits your household's size, range, or charging needs.
A second vehicle is sitting unused, and you would rather turn it into funds.
You are relocating and do not want to coordinate transport or charging logistics for a private sale.
You want to sell before spending more time arranging test drives for a full-size or three-row EV.
You have completed recall or software work and want a straightforward sale with records documented.
If any of that describes your situation, the next section is the answer.
Selling a Cadillac EV privately can work if you want to manage the listing, answer configuration questions, arrange test drives, and walk each interested buyer through battery condition, range, Super Cruise availability, and recall status. With four different models sharing the Cadillac EV name, that conversation often starts with clarifying which one you actually have.
A dealer trade-in is another route, but a dealer may price an EV as a wholesale unit intended to move quickly, especially without an EV-specific buyer network. A private buyer can check VIN-based recall information at NHTSA, but that is still a step you would need to coordinate during a sale.
We offer a different path: we buy your Cadillac EV directly. Our EV buying experts use real transaction data from EVs we have actually bought and sold. Your offer reflects the vehicle's battery condition, drive unit condition, software-enabled features, and mileage, matched to your exact model and configuration rather than a generic gas-car mileage formula.
The process is designed to give you a clear number before you commit:
Your offer remains in place unless the self-inspection identifies something material that was not reported. One EV buying expert stays with you from the offer through pickup. If your Cadillac EV has financing, we pay your lender directly. If it is leased, we coordinate the payoff with the leasing company, which typically takes two to three weeks after you sign the buyout authorization.
After we receive the title, payment is sent by wire or ACH within 24 to 48 hours, and funds reach you at or before pickup. Get your no-obligation Cadillac EV offer now, then take up to seven days to decide whether selling to us is right for you.
Tell us whether you have a Lyriq, Optiq, Escalade IQ, or Vistiq, then confirm the model year, trim, drivetrain, and mileage. This keeps a compact Optiq distinct from a full-size Escalade IQ or a three-row Vistiq.
We review your Cadillac EV's overall condition alongside battery state of health and drive unit condition. The guided smartphone self-inspection lets you document the vehicle clearly, on your own time.
We confirm the software-enabled capabilities relevant to your model, including Super Cruise availability and current update status where applicable. We also note whether reported equipment matches what is present.
We compare your Cadillac EV with transactions for the same model, configuration, and mileage, then account for battery condition, drive unit condition, and local buyer demand. We do not rely on a national average or a gas-car mileage formula.
We give you our best number upfront, with no negotiation or back-and-forth. The offer holds for seven days and changes only if the guided self-inspection finds something material that does not match what you reported.
“My offer was much more than Tesla, Carvana, and Carmax. Didn't have to take my car anywhere.”
“I was a little nervous selling my car online, but Anita gave me the assurance I needed the whole way.”
“The process was really easy and smooth. No last-minute tricks like you get at dealerships.”
“We were skeptical at first, but checked Reddit and Google to make sure these guys are legit.”
Yes. For a financed Cadillac EV, we pay your lender directly. For a leased vehicle, we coordinate payoff with the leasing company, which typically takes two to three weeks after you sign the buyout authorization.
Tell us any charging interruptions, range or state-of-charge concerns, Super Cruise or driver-assistance faults, infotainment reboots, and any recent service or recall work. Accurate details help us make an offer that matches your Lyriq, Optiq, Escalade IQ, or Vistiq and keeps the process straightforward.
Battery condition is one of the most important factors. We assess reported state of health alongside drive unit condition, mileage, and your Cadillac EV's exact configuration, rather than applying a gas-car mileage formula to an electric vehicle.
Check your VIN at NHTSA's recall lookup before requesting an offer. Recall status does not prevent us from making an offer, but reporting open or completed campaigns accurately helps us assess your Cadillac EV correctly.
Once you receive your offer, you have seven days to accept or decline at no cost. If you accept, you complete a roughly 15-minute guided smartphone self-inspection on your own time, and we arrange free pickup from your driveway anywhere in the United States.
Payment is sent by wire or ACH after we receive the title, typically within 24 to 48 hours, with funds reaching you at or before pickup. There are no paperwork, transport, closing, or processing fees deducted from your offer.
