Cadillac’s First All-Electric SUV to Feature Altia's Dashboard Display Technology

The upcoming Cadillac LYRIQ is a battery-powered crossover featuring a curved 33-inch diagonal LED cockpit display driven by Altia human-machine interface (HMI) development solutions.

Per the company, the LED display is capable of emitting over one billion colors and will serve as the instrument cluster, infotainment system, and control for lighting. The screen can act as a single unit, while the car is stopped and charging, or divided into three display areas allowing sharing and coordination of content across the vehicle's screen.

Altia's HMI development software includes a WYSIWYG graphics editor and automatic code generator, with features for advanced 3D, multi-language, functional safety, and end-to-end Professional Engineering Services group.

LYRIQ will also include Super Cruise, Cadillac's hands-free driver assistance technology for compatible roads.

Initial availability of the Cadillac LYRIQ will be at the first half of 2022.
