Heated Seats, Heated Wheel and Heated Wiper Park: Cold-Morning Comfort in the 2027 Cadillac Lyriq

A cold morning is easier to face when the vehicle does part of the work for you. The 2027 Cadillac Lyriq comes with a set of heated features that start working as soon as you do, and most of them are standard on every trim. From the seats to the steering wheel to the windshield, the Lyriq is set up to take the chill out of getting going.

Here is a friendly walk through each feature and what it does.

What Heated Features Come on Every Lyriq?

Four cold-weather features come standard on every 2027 Lyriq trim, from Luxury to Signature Sport.

• Heated front seats: warm the driver and front passenger
• Heated steering wheel: warms the wheel rim before you touch it
• Heated wiper park: heated grids in the windshield glass, linked to the rear defrost control
• Heated outside mirrors: help clear ice and fog from the mirror glass

How Do the Heated Seats Work With Remote Start?

Remote start is included with Remote Keyless Entry on every Lyriq, and you can also start the vehicle from the myCadillac app. On the Lyriq, the heated front seats can activate automatically with a remote start. That means the cabin is already warming up by the time you open the door.

What Does the Heated Wiper Park Do?

The wiper park is the area at the base of the windshield where the wipers rest. Ice and packed snow can freeze the blades in place there. On the Lyriq, heated grids in the windshield glass warm that area and run with the rear defrost control, so the wipers are free to move when you need them. Rainsense automatic wipers are also standard, so the wipers respond to moisture on the glass.

Which Trims Add More Warmth?

The Signature trims go a step further. Signature Luxury and Signature Sport add heated rear outboard seats, so passengers in the back share the comfort. Premium and Signature trims also include a rear camera washer, which clears road spray, snow and ice from the camera lens.

Signature trims also carry 22-inch wheels with all-season tires as standard. Premium Luxury and Premium Sport add massage seats and the 23-speaker AKG Studio audio system with Active Noise Cancellation, which makes the cabin a calm place to warm up.

Do the Heated Features Change From Trim to Trim?

The warmth stays the same across the lineup, and the character of each trim changes. Luxury carries 20-inch Split 6-Spoke wheels and a fixed SkyGlass roof. Sport carries 20-inch Dynamic 12-Spoke wheels, dark accents and body-colour door handles. Both give you the same heated seats, steering wheel, wiper park and mirrors, so you can choose the look you like without giving up any cold-morning comfort.

Is the Lyriq Easy to Get Going in Cold Weather?

Several standard systems help the Lyriq handle slippery pavement. Electronic traction control and StabiliTrak stability control are standard, and a Driver Mode Selector lets you pick the mode that suits the road. One-Pedal Driving and Regen on Demand are also standard, so you can slow down smoothly by easing off the accelerator.

Charging is simple too. The Lyriq’s 102 kWh battery delivers an NRCan range of 525 km with rear-wheel drive and 513 km with all-wheel drive. A Dual Level Charge Cord is included, so you can plug into a 120V or 240V outlet at home.
