Cadillac LYRIQ vs Jeep Wagoneer: Specs Compared

Running cost over five years: at the EPA's 15,000-mile-a-year assumption the Cadillac LYRIQ burns about $800 of fuel annually against $800 for the Jeep Wagoneer. That $0 yearly gap compounds to roughly $0 over five years and $0 over eight — often more than the price difference between two trims of the same vehicle, and the single largest running-cost line item separating these two.

City and highway economy: the Jeep Wagoneer leads in both cycles — 104 mpg city and 90 mpg highway against 100 and 83 mpg — so its fuel-efficiency advantage holds whether you commute in traffic or cover long highway miles.

Powertrain choice: the Cadillac LYRIQ is recorded with no distinct engine configurations, the Jeep Wagoneer with 2 (SIDI, Mild Hybrid). Across 19 recorded Cadillac LYRIQ configurations and 22 for the Jeep Wagoneer, the wider the engine spread the more the real-world fuel efficiency depends on which version you actually buy, so check the specific model year and drivetrain rather than the headline number.

Drivetrain and class: the Cadillac LYRIQ is offered with All-Wheel Drive, Rear-Wheel Drive, the Jeep Wagoneer with All-Wheel Drive, Rear-Wheel Drive. All-wheel drive typically costs one to two mpg combined against the same vehicle in front- or rear-wheel drive, which is worth remembering when the gap between these two is small. The EPA classes them as Small Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD and Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD respectively — the class drives the interior volume, cargo space and passenger space each one is measured against.
