New Zealand Residents to Benefit from Exclusive Discount on Cadillac Lyriq

General Motors Australia & New Zealand has announced a special offer for the electric Cadillac Lyriq SUV in New Zealand, with indicative pricing starting from $107,615 for the Luxury model and $109,354 for the Sport model. This offer comes with a significant GST-sized discount, equivalent to a price reduction of approximately $16,000 per car.

The Lyriq, the first electric Cadillac confirmed in factory right-hand drive for New Zealand, is considered a startup for the brand in the country rather than a volume model. So far, only 10 Lyriqs have been registered in New Zealand year-to-date, including demonstrators.

The offer is valid until September 30, 2025, or while stocks last. It includes the automatic coverage of GST at the "digital shopfront" prior to purchase, as well as other incentives. The offer in Australia is similar, with very favourable finance, coverage of Luxury Car Tax, and on-road costs.

It's important to note that the initial pricing for the Lyriq in New Zealand was announced at $117,000-$119,000, but was raised to approximately $124,000-$126,000 when the vehicle came to market. However, the current post-discount prices reflect the significant savings offered by the ongoing promotion.

Looking ahead, Cadillac has confirmed plans for a fast Lyriq-V version and the smaller Optiq and larger Vistiq models, expected for 2026. The sale of the Lyriq model is expected to begin in the second half of 2024.

As always, the offer on the Lyriq is subject to stock availability. Interested buyers are advised to act quickly to take advantage of this exclusive discount.

In conclusion, this offer presents an excellent opportunity for New Zealand residents to own a piece of electric motoring history with the Cadillac Lyriq, at a price that's hard to resist.
