Technology

The last Escalade set a new benchmark in 2021 when it introduced a massive 33-inch OLED display that spanned more than half the dashboard. For 2025, Cadillac replaces it with an even larger, pillar-to-pillar 55-inch diagonal display that houses all of the Cadillac SUV’s numerous apps and features. An app store, customizable infotainment with voice control capability, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, OnStar Wi-Fi Hotspot, ventilated and massage-capable seats, full-color head-up display, and Super Cruise hands-free semi-autonomous driving technology are just a few highlights of the advance features found in the 2025 Escalade.

Platinum and V-Series models offer a new Night Vision system which detects animals or other objects on the road long before the headlights do.

Of course, Escalade owners are always connected to the outside should they need assistance or just directions thanks to the full suite of OnStar technologies.

Exterior

The Escalade has always been easy to spot on the road, and the 2025 model is no different.

An illuminated grill surround adds an unmistakable presence on the road at night. The main lighting elements are now vertical as were the previous model’s daytime running lights. Moreover, 24-inch wheels are now available on the new SUV. These are the largest wheel sizes ever found on an Escalade.

Three new color options are available. Aegean Stone which is a stunning green gray solid tint; Deep Sea Metallic that showcases a hint of gold in the sunlight, and a bold light bronze metallic paint called Latte Metallic. To make getting in and out easier, the Escalade offers Power open-and-close doors as well. The design on the new 2025 Cadillac Escalade significantly refreshes the visual signature of the model introduced in 2021, but it does so without changing the unique overall style that has made the Escalade the flagship that it is.
