Cadillac is Driven to Design Gold-Standard Luxury EVs

A shiny red electric 2025 Cadillac OPTIQ SUV parked at night, highlighting its modern design and headlights.

2025 Cadillac EVs prove that eco-friendly performance and world-class sophistication can exist synergistically. Models like the Escalade IQ, LYRIQ, and OPTIQ are optimized for zero-emission performance so you can drive with peace of mind.

The 2025 EV lineup focuses on urban utility with compact, mid-size, and full-size SUV options. Any of the three current Cadillac EV models can travel significant miles on a full charge, such as the OPTIQ with its 302-mile range or the Escalade IQ, which boasts a 460-mile driving range. All models are equipped with the latest technology and luxury amenities.

Escalade IQ

The full-size Escalade IQ mimics the incredible performance standards of the flagship Escalade. This EV has dual electric motors with an all-wheel driveline that produces 750 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque. The powerful electric motor can hit 60 MPH in less than five seconds, easily marking it as one of the fastest full-size vehicles on the road.

The Escalade IQ impresses passengers with a 55-inch panoramic infotainment system. With this window-to-window infotainment system, it's easy to manage in-cabin settings and connected apps. A ClimateSense five-zone climate control system is standard. This dedicated touchscreen enables separate climate settings for first- and second-row riders, with an independent control system for third-row passengers.

LYRIQ

The LYRIQ has an entry-level single-motor rear-wheel electric powertrain that delivers an EV range of 326 miles. Drivers can opt for the dual-motor AWD powertrain for all-weather performance and a 319-mile electric range. Key mechanical features for the LYRIQ include Regen on Demand and one-pedal driving, which allows drivers to use a single pedal for acceleration and braking in specific traffic flows.

Intuitive infotainment is a highlight for the LYRIQ, with a standard 33-inch LED infotainment display that's compatible with Google Built-In technology. Key Google features like Google Maps and Google Assistant are standard, with customized apps available on the Google Play Store.

OPTIQ

The compact OPTIQ is a great choice if you want a smaller EV with a can-do attitude. This model has a standard dual-motor AWD electric powertrain that offers 300 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque, as well as a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 lbs. Advanced trailering systems like Hitch Guidance and Hitch View are standard.

The OPTIQ has standard Super Cruise technology to optimize highway driving. This hands-free driving assistant takes over braking, steering, and acceleration on certain U.S. highways so you can be at ease behind the wheel, especially on long trips or commutes.

2026 Kia Sportage EX

The Comfort & Quietness of the 2026 Kia Sportage

Kia gave the long-trusted Kia Sportage a thoughtful refresh for the 2026 model year, and all 5 senses feel it from the moment you sit down. From the redesigned 2-spoke steering wheel to the sleek new dashboard layout, the cabin feels modern without feeling intimidating. And for those who spend long stretches on the highway or navigate busy city streets in Texas and Oklahoma, you’ll appreciate how well-composed this interior is, including quiet-cabin enhancements and a space that’s made for you—not just made to get you there. Passenger Space That Puts People First One of the strongest arguments for the 2026 Kia Sportage in the comfort category is its class-leading 2nd-row legroom. Your rear passengers get a vast 41.3” of space to stretch their legs—something you don’t ever see in this segment. Up front, available heated and ventilated seats, along with a 2-position memory driver's seat, mean you can settle in exactly the way you want every time you get behind the wheel. Cargo Room That Keeps Up With Your Life Comfort isn't just about seating—it's also about having space for everything you're bringing along. The 2026 Kia Sportage delivers Class-Leading cargo room of up to 74.1 cu. ft. with the rear seats folded flat, letting you pack in everything from a few strollers to camping gear or that roadside furniture you found. Even with all the seats occupied, you’ve got an impressive 39.6 cu. ft. of cargo area that can handle a grocery run, backpacks, sports equipment, and a school project at once. From picking up all your kid’s friends to running errands around Oklahoma City, you never have to sacrifice practicality for style. Roof rails on select trims give you even more flexibility for gear and accessories. Technology That Reduces Stress Behind the Wheel A quieter, more comfortable driving experience often comes down to how well technology works with you rather than against you. The available dual panoramic display combines approximately 24” of total screen space for navigation, entertainment, and driver information—all within easy reach and clearly visible. Standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ keep you connected to your apps, playlists, and contacts without the clutter of cables. The available Harman Kardon® premium audio system, available on SX and X-Pro Prestige trims, rounds out the in-cabin experience with rich, immersive sound. The Sportage works in the background to keep your cabin quiet also. Sound-absorbing windshield glass helps minimize outside traffic sounds and wind for an exceptionally serene experience in this class. Driver Assistance Features That Ease the Journey The 2026 Kia Sportage received a 5-Star Overall Safety Rating from the NHTSA and was recognized as an IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+, so you can rest assured that this calm, quiet, cabin has your back too. Kia’s package of standard driver assistance technologies includes features like Auto Emergency Braking with Junction Turning Detection and front and rear parking sensors. Available Highway Driving Assist and Smart Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go take some of the mental load off during longer trips. Rear Cross-Traffic and Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance systems are also available to cover you in every direction. These features work quietly in the background, helping you stay aware without adding tension to your drive.

2026 GMC Sierra 1500 Elevation

The 2026 GMC Sierra 1500 Has More Than One Job to Do

A pickup has a difficult brief. It may spend Monday morning hauling equipment, Friday afternoon towing a trailer, and Saturday heading somewhere that barely qualifies as a road. Then it still needs to be comfortable enough for the trip home. The 2026 GMC Sierra 1500 approaches that problem by giving buyers plenty of choices rather than pretending every truck owner needs the same thing. Across the Sierra 1500 lineup, those choices extend from engines and towing equipment to serious off-road hardware and luxury features. For truck shoppers across Texas and Oklahoma, there is quite a lot to dig into. Plenty of Ways to Make It Move The standard TurboMax™ engine produces 310 hp and a best-in-class standard 430 lbs. ft. of torque. That is a useful amount of low-end muscle before moving into the available V8 and diesel options. Drivers needing more power can look toward the available 5.3L V8 or 6.2L V8. The available Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel offers another approach, particularly for buyers focused on towing. Properly equipped, the Sierra 1500 can tow up to 13,300 pounds. That range allows buyers to choose an engine around the work their truck will be doing. Someone regularly pulling a substantial trailer across Texas has different requirements from a driver carrying tools around town, and the Sierra does not force both into the same powertrain. From Work Truck to Something Rather Plush The 2026 Sierra 1500 lineup includes Pro, SLE, Elevation, SLT, AT4, AT4X, Denali, and Denali Ultimate. That is a broad spread, but there is logic behind it. Pro starts at the work-focused end, while SLE, Elevation, and SLT progressively add equipment and comfort. AT4 and AT4X head in a more adventurous direction. Both include a factory-installed 2-inch suspension lift, underbody skid plates, and Rancho® monotube shocks for drivers expecting dirt, rocks, and uneven terrain to feature in the itinerary. Denali and Denali Ultimate go the other way, concentrating on premium appointments. Denali Ultimate includes 16-way power heated and ventilated front seats with massage functionality and a 12-speaker Bose® Premium Series audio system. Available Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology adds another dimension for long stretches on compatible roads. The Screens Have Useful Jobs There is plenty of technology in the Sierra 1500, but some of the most interesting equipment is aimed directly at making truck ownership easier. More than 40 diagonal inches of available driver-focused digital displays can put a considerable amount of information within sight. The available 13.4-inch diagonal touchscreen includes Google built-in compatibility and voice-activated functionality. For towing, the available ProGrade™ Trailering System helps simplify parts of the hitching process. Up to 14 available camera views can provide additional perspectives around the truck and trailer, which is far more useful than simply adding another enormous screen because enormous screens happen to be fashionable. A Truck Doesn't Need to Feel Like a Shed The Crew Cab provides best-in-class standard front headroom and legroom, an important point for anyone spending hours behind the wheel. Materials change considerably as you move through the Sierra 1500 lineup. SLT offers available leather-appointed seating, Denali introduces Forge perforated-leather seating surfaces, and Denali Ultimate moves to full-grain leather. There is also storage throughout the cabin for the collection of tools, cables, paperwork, drinks, and miscellaneous objects pickups seem to accumulate. Buyers comparing the Sierra 1500 lineup can therefore decide how far toward workhorse or luxury they want their truck to lean. Choose the Sierra That Fits the Job Drivers across Texas and Oklahoma can explore the Sierra 1500 inventory at Grubbs GMC of Wichita Falls, compare available trims and engine configurations, and research other models in the current GMC truck lineup. Once you've narrowed down the truck that suits your plans, schedule your Sierra 1500 test drive online and see how it handles the job from the driver's seat.

2026 Genesis GV80

5 Reasons the 2026 Genesis GV80 Is More Than a Pretty Face

Luxury SUVs have become remarkably good at offering enormous screens, enormous wheels, and enough ambient lighting to make the average living room feel under-equipped. The 2026 Genesis GV80 certainly participates, but there is substance behind the spectacle. With 2 Turbocharged engines, available 3-row seating, a standard 27-inch OLED display, and configuratio ns stretching from 2.5T RWD to 3.5T Prestige Black AWD, the GV80 gives drivers across Texas and Oklahoma several distinct versions to explore at Grubbs Family of Dealerships. 1. The Design Changes Considerably as You Move Up the Range The Genesis Crest Grille and Two-Line lighting signature give the GV80 an identity that's difficult to confuse with another luxury SUV. Standard 19-inch alloy wheels on 2.5T models grow to 22-inch designs on upper configurations, but the larger changes happen inside. The 2.5T starts with leatherette seating, while 2.5T Advanced introduces leather upholstery and a power-folding third row. Move to 3.5T Prestige and Nappa leather joins heated and ventilated front and second-row seats. The new 3.5T Prestige Black takes the darker route with Black Nappa leather, exclusive quilting, open-pore Black Ash wood trim, and corresponding dark exterior details. 2. One 27-Inch OLED Display Handles a Lot of Jobs Every 2026 GV80 receives a 27-inch OLED instrument cluster and navigation display, avoiding the appearance of several unrelated screens being glued across the dashboard. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are standard, while Fingerprint Authentication can start the engine and access stored driver profiles. Mood Curator combines selectable music and ambient lighting settings to alter the cabin atmosphere. Depending on configuration, buyers can also add a Head-Up Display, Bang & Olufsen® Premium Audio, Genesis Digital Key 2, and Surround View Monitor. 3. The V6 Adds 75 HP & Standard AWD The standard 2.5L Turbocharged 4-cylinder produces 300 hp and 311 lbs. ft. of torque, already substantial output for the entry powertrain. The available 3.5L Twin-Turbocharged V6 raises those figures to 375 hp and 391 lbs. ft. of torque. Both engines use an 8-speed automatic transmission, but drivetrain availability separates them: 2.5T models can be configured with RWD or AWD, while 3.5T models use AWD. AWD versions also include Terrain Mode. Available Electronically Controlled Suspension with Road Preview uses the front camera to assess the road surface ahead and adjust suspension response before the vehicle reaches it. 4. The Driver-Assistance List Has Real Depth The 2026 GV80 earned a 2026 IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award and comes standard with Highway Driving Assist 2 and Smart Cruise Control 2. Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 can detect potential conflicts involving vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, while Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist add support in situations where visibility can become limited. Available Blind-Spot View Monitor takes a more direct approach, displaying a live camera image of the corresponding blind spot when the turn signal is activated. 5. Genesis Extends the Experience Beyond the Driveway Genesis includes complimentary scheduled maintenance for 3 years or 36,000 miles with new vehicles, along with a 5-year/60,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Original owners of new gas-powered Genesis models also receive a 10-year/100,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warr anty. First owners of 2023 and newer Genesis models receive complimentary Genesis Connected Services with no expiration date, including Enhanced Roadside Assistance, Remote Start with Climate Control, and Stolen Vehicle Recovery.
