Cadillac is set to make its highly anticipated entry into Formula 1 competition. The legendary brand's racing team will officially debut on March 8th during the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne. General Motors President Mark Reuss recently shared that the team will test a special-edition livery at their new global headquarters in Detroit. This livery is slated for reveal during Shakedown Week in Barcelona, Spain, between January 26 and 30, and will later be featured at the Australian Grand Prix.

Cadillac has secured another major industry honor. The 2026 MotorTrend SUV of the Year award has been given to the Cadillac Escalade IQ. This all-electric vehicle delivers a memorable driving experience and comes packed with cutting-edge features. Additionally, the head-turning style of the new Escalade IQ adds to its excitement.

While Cadillac has long been established as a leader in American luxury, the brand is now garnering major international respect. The Cadillac VISTIQ recently earned the title of 2026 German Car of the Year. This victory makes Cadillac the only car manufacturer in history to win this prestigious accolade in back-to-back years. This follows the success of the midsize Cadillac LYRIQ, which took home the top prize in 2025.

The Cadillac Formula 1 Team has announced a thrilling addition to its roster! Sergio Pérez and Valtteri Bottas will join the celebrated team and lead Cadillac's Formula 1 program through the 2026 season. Although their careers took different routes, both drivers are seasoned competitors with many Grand Prix starts and podiums.
