Caddy's SUV icon ditches V8, gets batteries, keeps outrageousness.
Making electric versions of iconic nameplates is tricky. Because to retain the loyal fans of a hulking combustion model it’s desirable to retain as much character of the original as possible. And batteries and motors tend to fundamentally alter that. But the job is potentially easier for giant SUVs like the Cadillac Escalade. The V8 car was enormous, crammed full of tech and could tow the moon - the same looks to be true for this electric version, the Escalade IQ.
But there are some clever parts to the IQ. It’s by the Ultium Platform, the first full-size SUV built on GM’s modular electric toolkit, which features 800-volt charging architecture. Still pretty rare in EVs, 100 miles in 10 minutes plugged in is theoretically possible. It’s also capable of Vehicle-to-Home bidirectional charging, or at least will be from 2025 for those that have the right kit.
