The Cadillac brand is American ingenuity through and through. From reliable engineering to bespoke luxury, every new Cadillac vehicle is an experience. Cadillac EVs, such as the Cadillac LYRIQ and Cadillac OPTIQ, are among the brand's latest feats of automotive excellence. As electric vehicles, we understand that many people come in with unique perceptions of what EVs are supposed to be. To learn the truth, why not take a new Cadillac EV for an overnight test drive? With this extended test drive, you can learn the ins and outs of what makes an EV an EV. Schedule your overnight test drive at Sunset Cadillac of Sarasota.
How it Works
Our overnight test drives are pretty straightforward when it comes down to it. As with a regular test drive, you will call our team to request one. However, you will need to specifically ask for an overnight test drive. Once your test drive is set up and all the paperwork is in order near Lakewood Ranch, you will pick up your vehicle from us and keep it until the next day. It is that simple.
If you have questions about how the process works, or how long you have to return your vehicle the next day, feel free to ask away. We are your resource and are ready to provide the answers you need.
What You Can Expect
When you start your overnight test drive, you may wonder what to expect. Common questions we receive about overnight test drives around Bradenton and beyond typically include the following:
Charging Your EV: As a fully electric vehicle, your Cadillac EV will need to charge up rather than pump in gas. While using up your LYRIQ, OPTIQ, or VISTIQ's full range is unlikely during your overnight test drive, you may still need to charge in a pinch or before you bring it back to us. Modern Cadillac EVs offer NACS or CCS charging adaptors, allowing you to charge at public Tesla Superchargers in Florida. All you have to do is plug in a charging cord and let your car do the work.
There Will Be Mileage Limits: Keep in mind that there is a mileage limit of 100 miles your overnight test drive. If you have questions or concerns please double-check with your sales representative about the mileage allowance.
One of Our Team Members Can Show You the Features: EVs are a new breed of vehicle, and they come with several new features and amenities that gas vehicles do not offer. Our team is happy to provide a quick consultation on how your Cadillac EV will operate before you officially start your test drive.
