The image shows a sleek, modern 2025 Cadillac Escalade, a luxury SUV with a bold front grille and stylish design.

High-end performance, cutting-edge engineering, and opulent luxury are all traits associated with the Cadillac brand, and the Escalade is its flagship three-row SUV. With an expansive, well-appointed cabin, performance-driven powertrains, and top-shelf technology, the 2025 Cadillac Escalade redefines luxury on a grand scale.  

Performance-Driven Power

Cadillac is known for performance, and the Escalade is powered by a massive 6.2-liter V8 with direct fuel injection, variable valve timing, and dynamic fuel management. It’s paired with a 10-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with overdrive, tow/haul mode, and tap-up/tap-down shifting. The powertrain produces an impressive 420 horsepower and 460 foot-pounds of hard-working torque. The Escalade is available with RWD, 4WD, and AWD.

Spacious, Well-Appointed Interior

As a three-row, full-size SUV, the Escalade offers maximum interior volume for moving people and gear. With a passenger capacity of seven adults across its three rows of seating, the Escalade has 25.5 cubic feet of dedicated cargo space behind the third row. If more cargo space is needed, the power-folding 60/40 split-bench third row can be stowed to create 72.9 cubic feet of cargo volume, and with both rear rows folded, there’s 120.5 cubic feet of space.

Impressive Handling Characteristics

Though it’s a massive SUV, the Escalade maintains control on the road, thanks to an elite lineup of available handling features. For example, the available adaptive air ride suspension system uses electronically controlled air springs to create the smoothest possible ride on varying road surfaces. Other features include a standard mechanical limited-slip rear differential, an optional Brembo 6-piston brake system, and StabiliTrak electronic stability control.

Superior Safety and Driver Assistance Features

The Escalade’s safety and driver assistance features help prevent accidents and protect occupants in a collision. Those features include enhanced automatic parking assist, forward collision alert, rear cross traffic braking, eight airbags, tire fill alert, tire pressure monitoring system, traffic sign recognition, reverse automatic braking, hill start assist, HD surround vision, intersection automatic emergency braking, and enhanced automatic emergency braking.

Top-Shelf Infotainment and Connectivity Technology 

Modern drivers want to stay connected and engaged on the road, and the Escalade’s infotainment features help them do that. Standard features include an AKG Studio 19-speaker audio system, an augmented reality feature that shows a live image of what’s in front of the SUV on the 14.2-inch cluster display, wireless phone charging, Wi-Fi hotspot capability, 5G vehicle connectivity, and the Cadillac User Experience with a 55-inch curved front color display.

The Cadillac Escalade continues to set the standard for luxury three-row SUVs, offering drivers peak luxury, performance-driven power, and advanced technology in a spacious package. Contact Cadillac of Portland, today to schedule a test drive of the new Escalade and explore its opulence in person.
