| 2023 | $68,353 | −8.23% |
| 2022 | $61,125 | −8.21% |
Most Escalade model years are down year over year, and several recent ones show double-digit declines. That creates a favorable setup for used buyers who want a newer luxury SUV at a lower price than it carried a year ago. The smallest declines are clustered among the 2022, 2023, and 2018 model years, which suggests those versions have been relatively steadier than the rest.
The 2022, 2023, and 2018 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

For the safest used buy, the 2015, 2021 and 2022 models all post the highest confirmed score of 8/10.
Should I buy a used Cadillac Escalade now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −11.13% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −10.42%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 35.3% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 34.3%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $79,682. The Cadillac Escalade offers a commanding presence, a spacious cabin, and a strong mix of luxury and technology.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: The 2026 Cadillac Escalade is powered by a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 producing 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, and our test vehicle was equipped with four-wheel drive (4WD).
- Tech: The interior’s centerpiece is a 55-inch curved display that spans the full width of the dashboard, and the screen incorporates a digital instrument cluster, a 35-inch central infotainment touchscreen, and a 20-inch front passenger screen.
- Safety: Every model includes automatic emergency braking with front and rear pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitors with lane-change alert, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree surround-view camera system, and GM's Safety Alert Seat, which vibrates to reinforce audio and visual warnings.
- Starting price: The 2026 Cadillac Escalade starts at $93,995 (including a $2,895 destination fee) for what we’d describe as the “livery-spec” 1SA trim, equipped with RWD.
