Red Noland Cadillac, the premier Cadillac dealer in Colorado Springs, is thrilled to announce the upcoming arrival of the 2026 Cadillac OPTIQ-V, the high performance version of the OPTIQ. This dynamic, all-electric SUV joins Cadillac’s esteemed V-Series portfolio, including the Lyric V-Series, blending a youthful persona with the raw power and sporty luxury design that performance enthusiasts crave.
“The V-Series has always represented the pinnacle of Cadillac performance and design,” said Leif Clinard, General Sales Manager of Red Noland Cadillac. “The 2026 OPTIQ-V is a groundbreaking addition, offering an exhilarating, all-electric driving experience. We are confident it will captivate a new generation of drivers in Colorado Springs and reinforce Cadillac’s legacy of innovation.”
Agile and Powerful Performance for the Pikes Peak Region
Engineered for those who love to drive, the OPTIQ-V delivers a harmonious balance of aerodynamics, agility, and power. It features a standard dual motor all-wheel-drive system, producing a Cadillac-estimated 519 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. This power is unleashed through Velocity Max, a driver-selectable feature that enables a breathtaking 0-60 mph time of just 3.5 seconds.

Key performance features include:
- V-Mode: Allows drivers to customize and save their preferred performance settings for instant access.
- Brembo® Performance Brakes: Standard front calipers, available in blue or red, provide superior stopping power and a fade-resistant performance.
- Tuned Suspension: A coilover strut front and 5-link rear suspension with Continuous Damping Control dampers ensure Cadillac’s signature isolated precision and handling.
The OPTIQ-V is equipped with an 85-kilowatt-hour battery, offering a Cadillac-estimated 275 miles of range, perfect for scenic drives through the Rockies. Significantly, it is General Motors’ first vehicle to feature a native NACS (North American Charging Standard) inlet, simplifying the charging experience with direct access to a vast network of fast-charging stations. DC Fast Charging can add up to 70 miles of range in just 10 minutes.
Athletic Design and Luxury Cabin
The OPTIQ-V’s design is both athletic and confident. It features unique V-Series front and rear fascias, a high-gloss black front splitter, and distinctive blue and carbon fiber accents inside and out. An available carbon fiber package adds a front splitter, rear diffuser, and rear mid-spoiler for an even more aggressive look. The vehicle rides on 21-inch satin graphite alloy wheels with a choice of all-season or summer tires.
Inside, the driver-focused cabin boasts innovative technology and luxurious details. Drivers can choose from interior palettes that include Noir with Santorini Blue accents. The sporty feel is enhanced by woven carbon fiber décor and a unique V-Series perforation pattern on the seats. The centerpiece of the tech experience is a stunning 33-inch-diagonal advanced LED display and a standard 19-speaker AKG Studio Audio System.
For the first time in a V-Series model, Super Cruise, the industry’s first true hands-free driver assistance technology, comes standard, adding a new layer of comfort and convenience for long drives.
