Performance

The Cadillac VISTIQ AWD packs an impressive punch with a maximum power of 458.6 kW (624 hp / 615 bhp) and a commanding total torque of 880 Nm (649 lb-ft). This high-performance machine can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 3.7 seconds, and it reaches a top speed of 210 km/h (131 mph), making it a standout in its class.

Battery, Range, and Charging

The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 112.5 kWh and a net usable capacity of 107.5 kWh, providing a 5.0 kWh buffer (4.4%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 355.2 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system, aligning with industry standards.

The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) estimated range varies between 326 to 307 miles (525-494 km), depending on the vehicle’s configuration and options. For instance, larger wheels can increase energy consumption and reduce the overall range. The energy consumption rates are 3.0 mi/kWh for the base model and 2.9 mi/kWh for the top-tier version, according to the EPA standard test. For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 190 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 190 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 34 minutes with an average charging speed of 133 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 8% to 65%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 119 kW, with each charging session taking about 31 minutes and 50 seconds.

In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 25 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 9 hours and 33 minutes, requiring two charging stops from 6% to 73%, totaling 73 minutes of charging time.

Onboard Charger

The standard onboard charger supports up to 11.5 kW for Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging, allowing a full charge from 0 to 100% in about 9 hours and 20 minutes using a home setup. An optional 19.2 kW onboard charger reduces the full charge time to approximately 5 hours and 35 minutes.
