- Infotainment: a 55-inch curved display that spans the full width of the dashboard, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard across the lineup.
- Fuel efficiency: 16 mpg combined for the 4WD configuration, and our observed 16.4 mpg over 320 mostly highway miles.
Which Cadillac Escalade trim should I buy?
The 2026 Cadillac Escalade offers these trims:
- 1SA: The entry trim starts the lineup with rear-wheel drive and the Escalade’s core full-size luxury presence, making it the value-oriented starting point.
- Luxury: Adds the chrome-heavy look and upscale trim character for buyers who want a more traditional luxury appearance.
- Sport: Brings the blacked-out exterior treatment, including dark window surrounds, black roof rails, and a mesh grille.
- Platinum Luxury: Builds on the Luxury side of the lineup with a more premium, fully equipped feel.
- Platinum Sport: Adds the most dramatic styling and the richest cabin treatment, including semi-aniline leather with faceted quilting, leather door trim, a microsuede headliner, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.

Reviewed a 2016 Cadillac Escalade on Apr 27, 2025
Great car, however the visability when making left or right turns are very scary and cumbersome when trying to see pedestrians. GM should have redesigned the side mirrors before putting these out to market. My 2005 Escalade has a much better design.

CarGurus recommends the 2024 Cadillac Escalade
Summary
With 2,133 currently listed for sale and an average price of $77,938, 40.7% of 2024 Cadillac Escalade listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2024 Cadillac Escalade 5 / 5 stars.
92.3% of 2024 Cadillac Escalade listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2024 Cadillac Escalade stands out as a full-size luxury SUV that leans hard into technology, space, and presence. It continues to offer rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, and it carries over the 6.2-liter V8 and 10-speed automatic transmission. For buyers who want something more distinctive, the Escalade also offers a diesel option with a 277-horsepower, 3.0-liter inline-six turbodiesel engine, though that engine was dropped after the 2024 model year due to low demand.
Inside, the Escalade’s appeal is its combination of upscale comfort and an unusually dramatic dashboard display. The cabin features a 38-inch, high-definition curved OLED information panel that stretches from the gauge cluster to the infotainment system, along with standard 12-way power-adjustable synthetic leather upholstery, front and rear heated seats, tri-zone climate control, a power liftgate, a wireless phone charger, and a 19-speaker sound system. Standard driver-assistance equipment is also extensive, including automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, a rear-seat reminder, a surround-view parking camera, lane-departure warning, front- and rear-parking sensors, and Teen Driver. Buyers can also choose captain’s chairs or a no-cost middle bench seat, depending on how they want to balance comfort and passenger capacity.
The Escalade’s strengths are matched by its size and price. It is praised for being luxurious and comfortable, and for being easy to drive for such a large vehicle, but it also carries the expected drawbacks of poor fuel economy and poor ride quality. Pricing reflects its premium positioning, with new examples starting at $93,995 at the time of writing, while the high-performance V-Series climbs to $172,220.
