Record summary

What to know first

Every VISTIQ trim shares the same 615-horsepower dual-motor AWD powertrain and roughly 305-mile EPA range; the four trims separate entirely by comfort and suspension equipment.

Model-year note

Premium Luxury adds air-ride adaptive suspension not standard on Luxury or Sport: a chassis difference, not just trim badging. MY2027 is a minor update: Sport and Platinum get a new Gloss Black grille header (replacing Vader Chrome), Premium Luxury gains an exclusive Black-with-white-stitching interior colorway (replacing Phantom Blue), a couple of wheel choices are dropped, and VISTIQ adopts the NACS charge port for native Tesla Supercharger access.
