DAVID WADDELLCADILLAC · CALGARY
2027 CANADIAN V-SERIES // CALGARY
LUXURY
AT REDLINE.
V-Series is Cadillac performance at its most focused: performance AWD, bigger brakes, sharper suspension calibration, V-specific design and — in Escalade-V — a supercharged 6.2L V8.
THE V-SERIES DIFFERENCE
V-Series takes everything that already makes a Cadillac feel premium and tightens it up. The response is quicker, the braking is stronger, the chassis is more disciplined and the styling is more deliberate. You still get the luxury, technology and comfort, but the whole vehicle feels more focused. OPTIQ-V and LYRIQ-V deliver that attitude in Cadillac EV form, while Escalade-V and Escalade-V ESV bring it with a supercharged 6.2L V8.
2027 V-SERIES LINEUP
Two electric performance SUVs and two full-size supercharged V8 flagships — each with its own mix of V-Series power, braking, suspension and unmistakable presence.
Compact Cadillac EV packaging with V-Series brake, suspension and damping hardware.
The larger electric V-Series choice, with a dedicated performance suspension and V-specific drive modes.
The standard-length Escalade turned into a dedicated V-Series performance flagship.
The same V-Series powertrain in the longer ESV body when maximum cabin and cargo space still matters.

V-SERIES DNA
V-Series is not a black-out package. The 2027 V models add real changes to brakes, suspension, damping, driveline and V-specific trim.
OPTIQ-V and LYRIQ-V move to 15.35-inch Brembo front brakes. Escalade-V uses front 6-piston Brembo performance brakes.
Continuous Damping Control appears on both EV V-Series models. Escalade-V combines Air Ride Adaptive Suspension and Magnetic Ride Control.
The 2027 OPTIQ-V, LYRIQ-V and Escalade-V configurations are all-wheel drive.
Carbon-fibre appearance packages are available on OPTIQ-V and LYRIQ-V. Escalade-V cabin combinations include Haumea Carbon Fibre trim.
