The 2025 Cadillac Escalade receives a significant mid-cycle refresh that sharpens the exterior and transforms the cabin of Cadillac's flagship full-size luxury SUV. Up front, a new grille and vertical lighting signatures echo the electric Escalade IQ, while available power-opening doors add ceremony to entry. The headline change is inside: a curved 55-inch total pillar-to-pillar LED display replaces the previous cluster and touchscreen, joined by an available executive second row, a redesigned center console, and Cadillac's Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance for compatible highways. The standard engine remains the 6.2-liter V8 with 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic and rear- or four-wheel drive, with EPA fuel economy around 16 mpg combined and towing capacity up to about 8,100 pounds. Buyers wanting more can step up to the Escalade-V, whose supercharged 6.2-liter V8 produces 682 horsepower, making it the most powerful full-size luxury SUV on sale. Seating accommodates up to eight across three rows, and the extended-length ESV body adds substantial cargo room. Pricing starts at $89,590 for the Luxury trim and climbs past $160,000 for the Escalade-V. The Escalade competes with the Lincoln Navigator, BMW X7, and Mercedes-Benz GLS while remaining the segment's best-known nameplate.
