Cadillac Escalade 2025

Cadillac this week revealed the 2025 Escalade, bringing a thoughtfully updated interior and exterior to the iconic and best-selling full-size luxury SUV.

The Escalade has channeled Cadillac's signature design, technology and performance since its inception and has earned its place in American pop culture. The new 2025 Escalade elevates what owners love most about the iconic luxury SUV.

Escalade customers' expectations and desires are well understood by Cadillac's design team. The 2025 Escalade takes design cues from the best Cadillac has to offer and brings them to life in the updated model. On the exterior, the 2025 Escalade features thoughtful updates that continue the successful design language launched with the 2021 model year, including a new, bolder front-end design.

The 2025 Escalade incorporates advanced lighting technology inherited from the ESCALADE IQ. The functional lighting elements move from a horizontal to a vertical arrangement, reinforcing the strong Cadillac identity – both during the day and at night.

A bolder front end features details inspired by the CELESTIQ and LYRIQ design language, including a standard illuminated front badge and, on V Series and Premium Luxury Platinum trims, an illuminated grille. Rear lighting has been refined, remaining unmistakably Escalade.

New for the 2025 Escalade are available 24-inch wheels, the largest ever offered on an Escalade, and three new exterior colors: Aegean Stone, a bold deep greenish gray with a solid, confident appearance; Deep Sea Metallic, a rich metallic blue with a hint of gold highlighted; and Latte Metallic, a modern light bronze with an elegant metallic effect. Electric opening and closing doors are also available.

Inside, much of the ESCALADE IQ's interior design comes to life, balancing technology and luxury for an immersive experience for driver and passengers.

The interior features an available 'Executive Second Row' package that combines beauty with task-oriented functionality, with reclining tray tables, individual 12.6-inch diagonal screens, a rear command center, dual wireless phone charging pads, massaging seats and speakers in the headrest.

Two new interior color options are available for the 2025 Escalade. Renaissance Red features a leather interior, adorned with a faceted quilt and perforated seats, with a high-contrast filled open-pore dark wood veneer to complete the look. . The Jet Black and Sheer Gray tones feature contrasting leather and mixed gray fabric, faceted cushioned and perforated seats, with a high-gloss wood veneer using a linear marquetry technique to create a layered effect of tones and textures. Customers can customize interior lighting by choosing from 126 colored ambient lighting options across two zones.

Additionally, the 2025 Escalade-V receives a new performance-focused authentic carbon fiber interior surrounded by a deep Jet Black leather interior and V Series-exclusive quilted and perforated seats.

Technology...The Escalade has always presented the best that Cadillac has to offer from a technological and innovation point of view. The 2025 Escalade is no different, packed with technology to enhance the cabin experience.
