Cadillac Middle East has announced the launch of five new vehicles as part of its latest product expansion, marking one of the brand’s most extensive rollouts in the region to date.

The move is part of the company’s strategy to strengthen its position in the luxury automotive segment and accelerate its shift toward electrification and advanced mobility technologies.

The announcement comes as the GCC continues to emerge as one of the world’s fastest-growing electric mobility markets, according to the Roland Berger Charging Index 2025. With global automotive trends moving toward autonomous and electric vehicles, Cadillac said its new lineup underscores its commitment to innovation, connectivity, and elevated in-car experiences.

“Our enhanced lineup marks a pivotal moment in Cadillac’s transformation, one that reflects our unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology while staying true to the brand’s distinguished heritage,” said Omar Elkhishin, Managing Director, Cadillac International Operations and Cadillac Middle East.

The new lineup includes the OPTIQ, an entry-level SUV designed for tech-savvy drivers, and the LYRIQ, a mid-size electric SUV available in a high-performance LYRIQ-V variant, described by Cadillac as its fastest model to date.

The range also features the VISTIQ, a three-row SUV built for those seeking power and versatility, along with the ESCALADE IQ, an all-electric version of the brand’s flagship SUV that Cadillac says delivers the longest range in its class.

Rounding out the portfolio is the ESCALADE IQL, a larger model designed with space, practicality, and family-oriented luxury in mind.

Elkhishin noted that the lineup is designed to cater to both loyal Cadillac customers and new buyers drawn to advanced technology and performance, describing the launch as marking “a new era for Cadillac in the region.”

The UAE’s luxury car market reached $4.45 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to $7.67 billion by 2034, driven by rising demand for personalization and premium design. Cadillac said its expanded portfolio aims to capture this growth by offering advanced infotainment, electric performance, and spacious interiors tailored to the evolving preferences of GCC luxury buyers.
