The first-ever all-electric ESCALADE IQL delivers a rare combination of commanding presence and road-trip readiness, and that is exactly what many families and professionals around Bloomington, IL want from a luxury SUV. With a Cadillac-estimated 460 miles of electric range, standard Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology with a 3-year OnStar® Super Cruise plan, and public DC fast charging capability of up to 350 kW that can add up to 116 miles in about 10 minutes, this three-row flagship rewrites what long-distance comfort can look like. That broad capability is paired to a cabin with a curved Pillar-to-Pillar 55-inch total diagonal LED display, available 38-speaker AKG Studio Reference Audio System, and available Executive Second Row — all designed to lower stress while raising the bar for convenience.

On the road itself, Super Cruise® brings hands-free guidance to compatible highways and can support automatic lane changes, giving you a chance to relax your shoulders while staying focused on the drive.
