Spelling it Lyriq is dumb, but fuck it- I'll give em a free pass on that because at least it's an actual name instead of another string of random alphanumeric gibberish. So sick of every high end carmaker doing that crap.

It's the new Cadillaq™

I laughed so hard at this.

The name and vehicle is well marketed for wealthy and successful black American women

Incredible move from Cadillac, they'll sell dozens of them.

[u/BicycleDude69 → u/Recoil42]

They'll sell millions in the Atlanta suburbs alone

The nurses are gonna step up from their altima

[u/Recoil42 → u/Pyrhhus]

It's to emphasize the marque over the model.

In other words, it's a Lexus, not an ES350.

[u/Pyrhhus → u/Recoil42]

Yeah, I know, which is why i hate it. I can't stand badge snob culture

I remember hearing it was supposed to be like “we put iq at the end of the name so people think it’s smart” but imo there’s nothing smart sounding about -ick. It sounds gross.
