2025 Cadillac Escalade adds EV style, 55-inch screen, power doors

A handful of new features, including power opening and closing doors and a 55-inch display screen, will drive interest in the 2025 Cadillac Escalade when an updated version of the big luxury SUV goes on sale late this year or early in 2025. The Escalade will also adopt some features and styling touches from Cadillac's new electric vehicles. Cadillac builds the Escalade in Arlington, Texas. Production of the regular and extended-wheelbase models of the 2025 Escalade will begin late this year. Cadillac plans to build more of the Escalade's two top models — the lavishly equipped Premium Luxury Platinum and 689-horsepower V-series. Cadillac will announce prices later this year.

It includes a high-resolution gauge cluster, 35-inch touch screen for driver use and a 20-inch passenger-side touch screen that's invisible to the driver but allows the passenger to control some functions or stream entertainment. In addition to the touch screen, the infotainment controls include Google-powered connected voice recognition, navigation and more. Another touch screen mounted just above the center console handles climate control. Physical dials, buttons and switches appear to be in short supply, though there's a volume dial on the center console, near a multipurpose rotary controller that can be used as an alternative to the main touch screen.

The rear seat adds an executive seating package with stowable tray tables, 12.6-inch personal control screens, charging pads, massaging seats and headrest speakers.

Cadillac unveils seriously powerful electric vehicle with game-changing features: 'Multilayer experience'

Cadillac is adding a new car to its already sleek V-series collection: the powerful and quick Lyriq-V electric vehicle, per Green Car Reports. The carmaker's V-series already boasts a line of high-performance cars that combine style and technology. Previous versions of the Lyriq exude the high-class luxury Cadillac is known for with eco-friendly electric power. The 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V will be stylish, powerful, fast, and battery-powered. Production for the Lyriq-V begins this spring at GM's Spring Hill Manufacturing plant located in Tennessee. The SUV will cost $79,990 which includes a $1,395 destination charge. If you were going to purchase an EV, which of these factors would be most important to you? Cost Battery range Power and speed The way it looks Click your choice to see results and speak your mind. While the Lyriq-V will be powered by the standard Lyriq's 102-kilowatt-hour battery pack, it'll get an extra boost from the dual-motor powertrain which has been upgraded to 615 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, according to Green Car Reports. Cadillac has stated the range will be 285 miles, and a single motor per axle enables all-wheel drive. The Lyriq-V is the most expensive version of the Lyriq, but drivers will also get the cost-saving benefits of owning an EV. With less required maintenance, like oil changes, in addition to the fuel savings, EV drivers save a lot of cash over the long term. With quieter engines, all-electric vehicles also offer a more comfortable ride. No tailpipe pollution means that while you're enjoying your drive, you're also helping the environment. Battery manufacturing along with the charging process does have an environmental impact. We need to dig up roughly 30 million tons of minerals every year for the low-carbon energy transition. However, we currently dig about 16.5 billion tons of dirty fuels out of our planet annually. The switch to renewable energy would be significant progress. For example, a data analysis performed by Reuters determined that a Tesla Model 3 would need to be driven only 13,500 miles before it compensates for the environmental costs of its manufacturing when compared to the gas-powered Toyota Corolla. Per Green Car Reports, the 2026 Cadillac Lyriq-V has many other new features including V-mode for customizable settings, a carbon fiber trim option, and V-specific sound — which Cadillac spokespeople said delivers a "multilayer experience exclusive for the V."
