2025 Cadillac Escalade

Cadillac’s massive Escalade received a huge update for the 2025 model year, with major infusions of luxury and tech features. Now we know the refresh is accompanied by a proportional price increase: With a base price of $89,590, the 2025 Escalade starts at $5,700 more than the 2024 model did (all prices include $1,995 destination).

What’s New
The 2025 Escalade’s face-lift includes squintier headlights and a larger grille with an illuminated Cadillac crest, but the major changes are inside. A 55-inch digital dashboard stretches from A-pillar to A-pillar, combining a 35-inch instrument panel and infotainment touchscreen with a 20-inch display for the front passenger. The latter is filtered to block it from the driver’s view and prevent distraction should the passenger choose to stream video. Yet another touchscreen below the main display handles secondary functions like the audio system and climate controls. GM’s Super Cruise hands-free driving system is now standard.

Some of the new options are even more impressive: four power doors that open and close at the press of a button, and a driver’s door that automatically opens as the key fob approaches and closes with a press of the brake pedal. An optional Executive Second Row Package includes massaging second-row captain’s chairs with head restraint speakers, a pair of 12.6-inch displays attached to the front seatbacks, a rear-seat control touchscreen and two wireless charging pads.

Twenty-four-inch wheels, the largest ever offered on an Escalade, are also available, as are two new interior colors, red and light gray; a third black interior is available in the Escalade-V only.
