The Escalade is getting the electric treatment. Cadillac took the wraps off of the electric version of the big, flashy SUV last year — and boy will it be luxurious. In fact, the Escalade IQ will likely end up being one of the most luxurious electric SUVs to date, and it’ll have a price tag to match.
Curious about the Escalade IQ and what it’ll end up offering? Here’s everything we know about the Cadillac Escalade IQ so far. Cadillac Escalade IQ: design The design of the Escalade is iconic, and it’s getting a serious face-lift for the electric model. The new Escalade has a huge faux grille on the front, with vertical headlights along the the sides and an imposing Cadillac logo emblazoned in the middle.
The overall look isn’t surprising — and it’s very in line with the general design of the Cadillac Lyriq, the company’s first big EV release. It has a similar faux grille, and similar vertical headlights on the front. The EV version of the Escalade is actually bigger than the standard model — though it doesn’t necessarily look like it.
The SUV measures in at 224.3 inches long and 85.3 inches wide — and it has massive 24-inch wheels.
Toward the back, the SUV mixes things up a little with a more curved rear — unlike the current Escalade. Overall, the Escalade IQ looks sportier than the gas-guzzling model — and that’s a good thing. It’s a little more modern, and a little more interesting.
