Traded in Mach-e for Lyriq

[iFeckless]

I traded in my Mach-e for a 2023 Cadillac Lyriq. I was lucky to be able to purchase a demo model. So far I miss the puddle lights and I really miss PAAK. I was afraid I was going to have to give up one-pedal, but fortunately the Lyriq's one-pedal driving works really well.

I hope that when I next purchase a Mach-e that there are significant improvements.

Sounds like a great post for the Lyriq forum

How'd you do on the trade in value? Lack of CarPlay obviously isn't a factor for you?

Anyway, best of luck with GM!

The Lyriq doesn't have PaaK? That's very surprising.

I thought GM's decision to drop CarPlay came after the Lyriq, no?

Good point - you may be right, his might have it.

I just recall thinking that GM doesn't make anything anywhere near superior enough to do without CarPlay, all things considered, so I'd just written them off as an option.

Trade in value was $28.5K, right in range with blue book. 2023 Lyriq has CarPlay.

Curious year/trim/mileage for $28,500?

As mentioned, I was incorrect and it's a go-forward (in terms of GM not supporting CarPlay) thing ... so yours is one of the final model years that will have it. https://www.motortrend.com/news/gen...-carplay-android-auto-for-safety-tim-babbitt/

2022 Premium, AWD, Extended Range, 10K miles.

I agree with anyone who eschews GM because they're dropping CarPlay.

What were your reasons for changing to the Lyriq?

GM uses Android Automotive, which lets you download all kinds of apps directly to the vehicle from the Google Play Store. Also Google maps built in. I even tied ABRP to my Hummer battery easily, without signing up for Premium

IIRC, the only EV they currently make without CarPlay is the Blazer EV.

Also, the new Equinox EV does not have Carplay. Google built-in.

Interesting. The Silverado EV does have it though, for now. No CarPlay is a. On starter for me.

Is that a pun on the "OnStar" thing GM does? Or just a typo?

The Lyriq doesn’t have puddle lights? That’s even more surprising given that their “light show” is a marquee feature!
