Cadillac has unveiled the 2025 Escalade, its flagship luxury SUV, boasting a refreshed design, a massive infotainment screen, and the standard inclusion of its advanced driver assistance system, Super Cruise.
The 2025 Escalade offers a modern interpretation of the classic design. Borrowing elements from the futuristic Escalade IQ concept, it features an imposing presence with the largest wheels ever offered on an Escalade – a staggering 24 inches. Other exterior updates include an illuminated Cadillac crest, vertical front lighting, and a redesigned grille surround (on select trims). The rear sees sleeker taillights, while the V-Series gets a unique fascia with carbon fiber accents and quad tailpipes. Three new paint colors – Aegean Stone, Deep Sea Metallic, and Latte Metallic – further enhance the Escalade’s sophisticated aesthetic.
Stepping inside, the 2025 Escalade’s cabin is reminiscent of the Escalade IQ, seamlessly blending futuristic technology with traditional luxury elements like high-gloss wood and leather upholstery. A dominant feature is the expansive, curved pillar-to-pillar display dominating the dashboard, providing a wealth of information, entertainment options, and driver controls.
For the ultimate audio experience, an AKG Studio system with 19 speakers comes standard. However, an even more immersive 36-speaker AKG Studio Reference system is available, with the option to upgrade to a staggering 40 speakers through the Executive Second Row package. Power-operated doors, a hallmark of limousine-level luxury, are optional but standard on Platinum and V trims.
The Escalade will continue to offer a range of powerful V8 engine options paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The top performer remains the 6.2-liter supercharged powerhouse in the Escalade-V, generating a heart-pounding 691 horsepower. This impressive power is complemented by an independent Adaptive Air Ride suspension and Cadillac’s latest Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 system, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride despite the Escalade’s size.
A significant upgrade for 2025 is the inclusion of Super Cruise as a standard feature on all Escalade models. This advanced driver assistance system allows for hands-free operation on over 400,000 miles of compatible roadways in the United States and Canada, with that number expected to reach 750,000 miles by the end of 2025. However, it’s important to remember that Super Cruise requires an attentive driver and only functions under specific conditions.
The 2025 Cadillac Escalade builds upon its legacy of luxury and innovation, offering a bolder design, a technologically advanced interior, and the standard inclusion of Super Cruise, solidifying its position as a leader in the full-size luxury SUV segment.
