The 2025 Escalade introduces a revamped front design that borrows heavily from Cadillac’s electric lineup. Vertical headlights with sleek LED accents now frame the imposing front grille, echoing the futuristic styling of the Celestiq and Lyriq. Adding to its dramatic presence, the new illuminated Cadillac crest and optional illuminated grille surround elevate the Escalade’s visual appeal, particularly on V-Series models. For the first time, buyers can opt for 24-inch wheels, complementing the existing 22-inch options. The new color palette includes striking hues like Aegean Stone green, Deep Sea Metallic blue, and Latte Metallic light bronze.

Inside, the 2025 Escalade redefines opulence with its massive 55.0-inch display stretching across the dashboard. This colossal screen is divided into a 35.0-inch driver’s display and a 20.0-inch front passenger touchscreen, complete with video streaming capabilities. The Escalade retains its user-friendly Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard features. For those seated in the second row, the Executive Second Row package brings an additional layer of luxury with 12.6-inch touchscreens, ensuring that rear passengers remain entertained. Every trim level of the 2025 Escalade now comes equipped with Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 and an Air Ride adaptive suspension, ensuring a smooth and responsive driving experience. Additionally, Super Cruise, Cadillac’s advanced hands-free driving system, is standard across the lineup, further enhancing the Escalade’s appeal to tech-savvy drivers.

Under the hood, the 2025 Escalade continues with its 6.2-liter V-8 engine, delivering 420 horsepower and 623 Nm of torque through a 10-speed automatic transmission. Unfortunately for diesel enthusiasts, the 3.0-liter Duramax engine has been discontinued. However, the high-performance Escalade-V remains, boasting a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 engine that cranks out an impressive 682 hp and 939 Nm of torque. The Escalade-V also benefits from several performance-focused upgrades, including a more aggressive front fascia with a larger lower grille for enhanced cooling and an interior adorned with carbon fiber accents and Jet Black leather.

With its blend of innovative features, luxurious amenities, and potent performance, the 2025 Cadillac Escalade continues to set the standard for full-size luxury SUVs, reinforcing Cadillac’s commitment to excellence in automotive design and technology.
