2027 Cadillac OPTIQ EV Battery Specs

Select between three thrilling electric powertrain options for the 2027 Cadillac OPTIQ. All are powered by an 85-kilowatt-hour propulsion battery. The entry-level powertrain draws from the battery to power a single electric drive motor that drives the rear axle; this rear-wheel drive (RWD) configuration makes 315 horsepower and achieves up to 317 miles of EPA-estimated range. For enhanced power, the optional dual-motor all-wheel drive (AWD) powertrain boosts output to 440 horsepower and can take you up to 303 miles on a single charge.

Standard drive modes allow you to tailor the traction settings with the following options:

  • Tour
  • Sport
  • Snow/ice
  • My Mode

Escalating the performance experience, the OPTIQ-V trim tunes the dual-motor AWD powertrain to a spine-tingling 650 pound-feet of torque, which allows you to accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in just 3.5 seconds. The unique V-Mode drive mode and launch control system combine to help you unleash the full potential of the powertrain, while competitive mode unlocks your ability to tailor traction settings and vehicle handling dynamics to your specific preferences. Continuous damping control is included with the OPTIQ-V, creating a smooth driving experience on spirited drives, while Brembo® front brakes provide confident stopping power.
