The Cadillac Escalade was born in a hurry. When Lincoln's Navigator caught GM flat-footed in the late 1990s, Cadillac rushed out a lightly disguised GMC Yukon Denali with its own badge, and the first Escalade was not much more than that. What followed was one of the great turnarounds in the luxury business: later generations got their own sheet metal, a swaggering vertical-light design and enough chrome to be seen from orbit, and the Escalade became the vehicle of choice for athletes, rappers, executives and anyone who wanted to arrive without whispering.
Underneath, it is still a body-on-frame truck shared with the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon, and that is part of its appeal: it tows, it hauls, it seats seven or eight and it shrugs off potholes. The current generation added an independent rear suspension, a curved OLED display that stretches across the dashboard, Super Cruise hands-free highway driving and a long ESV version. The Escalade-V, with a supercharged V8 and a thunderous exhaust, turned the family bus into a muscle car. Critics question the fuel economy and the eye-watering price of loaded examples.
Cadillac has since split the Escalade into a family. The Escalade IQ is a battery-electric version on GM's Ultium platform, with a massive battery pack, a sleeker shape and a cabin full of screens, while the gas model continues alongside it. Its rivals are the Lincoln Navigator, Jeep Grand Wagoneer, Lexus LX, Mercedes-Benz GLS and Maybach, BMW X7 and Range Rover, and the Escalade's sales leadership in the segment is a point of pride in Detroit.
Expect a steady stream of reviews and comparison tests, anniversary and limited-production V editions, pricing changes and Super Cruise updates, alongside the electric IQ's progress and the recall notices that come with any vehicle this complex. Owners and shoppers also follow resale values closely, since few luxury vehicles hold their worth like a well-kept Escalade. And there is the inevitable debate about whether a three-ton SUV can be the definition of American luxury. For better or worse, it already is, and its story is still unfolding.
The chrome-drenched full-size SUV that became a pop-culture symbol, now with a curved OLED dash, a supercharged Escalade-V and the electric Escalade IQ.
