Is GM ramping up in Oz? GMC Yukon and Cadillac Lyriq trademarks filed, but will they come to Australia? – Car News

General Motors (GM) has recently filed trademarks for two of its vehicles – the GMC Yukon and Cadillac Lyriq – in Australia. This has led to speculation that the automotive giant is looking to ramp up its presence in the country and bring the vehicles in question to the market.

The GMC Yukon is a full-size SUV that has been available in the United States for several years, and the Cadillac Lyriq is an all-electric crossover SUV that is currently in development. Both vehicles have been well-received in their respective markets, and now it appears that GM is looking to capitalize on the potential for success in the Australian market.

The GMC Yukon features a V8 engine and a long list of features, including a 10-speed automatic transmission, adaptive cruise control, and a suite of advanced driver-assist functions. It is also equipped with a range of safety technologies, such as automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring.

Meanwhile, the Cadillac Lyriq is a battery-electric vehicle that is expected to have an EPA-estimated range of over 300 miles per charge. It will also boast an array of advanced driver-assistance systems, such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking.

While it is still unclear whether the GMC Yukon and Cadillac Lyriq will be released in Australia, the filing of the trademarks suggests that GM is ramping up its presence in the country. If the vehicles are released, they could be a major boost to GM’s presence in the market, and could also help to further establish the company as a leader in the global automotive industry.
