Priced from $130,000 USD, the all-electric 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ aims to reimagine the luxury full-size SUV experience, complete with a 55-inch LED display, Super Cruise driver assistance technology, as well as vehicle-to-home bidirectional charging. This EV is also the first full-size SUV from Cadillac built on GM’s modular EV propulsion architecture, the Ultium Platform, while incorporating GM’s Ultifi software platform to deliver ongoing software updates.
Power comes from a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system generating up to 750 hp and 785 lb-ft of torque in Velocity Max mode. The motors are connected to a 200 kWh, 24-module battery pack that is good for 450 miles on a full charge. Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 and Adaptive Air Ride Suspension ensure a smooth ride, as the latter enables the vehicle to be lowered up to 2-inches and raised 1-inch. Inside, a 55-inch-total-diagonal LED display, powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Cockpit Platform, is enhanced with Google Assistant, Google Maps, and Google Play. If money is no object, you may be able to find a Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution Roadster on the used hypercar market in a few months at a hefty premium.
- Powerful Performance: ES1L scooter, 250W motor, 12.4 miles range, 12.4MPH, 220lbs.
- Lightweight & Foldable: Aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, 24.9lbs, one-click fold.
- Easy maneuvering and storage for city exploration.
ESCALADE IQ raises the standard just as the original Escalade redefined luxury a quarter-century ago. This reimagining of an icon marks the next step in Cadillac’s all-electric future. For more than 120 years, Cadillac’s bold innovative spirit has defined American luxury,” said Roth. “The ESCALADE IQ embodies this spirit in the most sophisticated form,” said John Roth, vice president, Global Cadillac.
