Cadillac Optiq-V Magnus Launch Edition arrives in North America

The Cadillac Optiq-V crossover is now available to buy in North America in Magnus Launch Edition form. The new version is aimed at buyers looking for a more exclusive look inside and out. Vehicles from this series have already started arriving at the brand’s dealerships.

The new Magnus Launch Edition will be built in very limited numbers, making it one of the rarer versions in the Cadillac Optiq-V lineup. Cadillac has not yet disclosed the exact production volume.

The Magnus Launch Edition builds on the Optiq-V’s already sharp design with carefully chosen details, including a Santorini Blue / Noir interior finished with genuine carbon fiber, creating a strong contrast and giving the cabin a more dynamic feel.

Exterior upgrades include exclusive Magnus Metal Frost paint, paired with a carbon-fiber package and blue-painted brake calipers that underline the identity of the V series. Magnus Launch Edition models also come standard with 21-inch six-spoke alloy wheels with a reverse-spoke design in Satin Graphite, plus a laser-etched V-series emblem.

Unsurprisingly, the Magnus Launch Edition carries a steep price: it is the most expensive Optiq-V trim, lifting the vehicle’s suggested retail price by $10,990.

The 2026 Cadillac Optiq-V uses a dual-motor electric powertrain producing 519 horsepower and 870 Nm of torque. In Velocity Max mode, the crossover can sprint from 0 to 96 km/h in just 3.5 seconds.
