The 2026 Cadillac Optiq-V Is One Of The Fastest Cadillacs Ever

    • The Cadillac Optiq-V will leave most gas-powered performance SUVs in the dust. 
    • Its dual electric motors churn 515 horsepower and help it sprint from 0-60 miles per hour in just 3.5 seconds.
    • General Motors is moving to the Tesla-style NACS charging port and the Optiq-V is the first GM EV to get that right from the factory.

When General Motors recently announced a $1 billion investment in next-gen V8 engines, The Daily Wire declared the company was “shifting its focus away from electric vehicle motors and back toward horsepower and torque.” That line has since disappeared from the story, but today’s news might really sting for the skeptics: Cadillac just unveiled the Optiq-V, which ranks among the fastest GM vehicles ever, gas or electric.
