General Motors (GM) will increase the production of the Cadillac Escalade V-Series performance model as part of its 2025 model year updates. The new SUV features significant enhancements, including a standard 55-inch diagonal display spanning the dash, an “executive package” for the second row, power doors, and 24-inch wheels.
The Escalade is crucial for Cadillac and GM as it is the highly profitable flagship of the company’s extensive SUV lineup. Moreover, GM has been dominating the U.S. market share of full-size SUVs for decades.
The 2025 model year updates will include sleeker front lighting and a larger interior screen, bringing the gas-powered model in line with the upcoming all-electric version. It will continue to be powered by two 6.2-liter V-8 engines, including a supercharged V-Series model with 682 horsepower and 653 foot-pounds of torque.
Cadillac will increase the production of the 2025 Escalade V-Series to meet the high demand that has outstripped supply in the current model year. Pricing for the 2025 models will be announced closer to the vehicle’s launch. The all-electric Escalade IQ is expected to start at around $130,000 when it goes on sale later this year.
Nevertheless, GM unveiled the enhancements to the gas-powered 2025 Escalade online ahead of production and sales beginning late this year. The Escalade will continue to be produced at GM’s Arlington Assembly in Texas, alongside full-size SUVs from Chevrolet and GMC that share a platform and components with the Cadillac model.
