2025 Cadillac Escalade Review

Is the 2025 Cadillac Escalade a Good SUV?
"The 'Slade continues to operate on the bigger and brawnier side of this opulent segment, being after all a close relative to the Silverado 1500 pickup truck (or more directly, a fancified Chevy Tahoe). But Cadillac has slathered so much leather and tech and sound-deadening material throughout this thing that it's almost a rolling isolation chamber. Thanks to a major refresh for 2025, the Escalade now looks much more like its EV stablemates, but it's still proudly V8-powered under the hood. Inside, a jaw-dropping 55-inch infotainment screen spans the entire width of the dashboard. We can't give the Escalade high marks for efficiency or value, but Cadillac knows its customers and seems to be giving them even more of what they want."—Ranked #2 out of 7 Full-Size Luxury SUVs
