The Escalade IQ reinterprets the Escalade, a model long positioned as a flashy full-sized SUV, as a supersized electric SUV. Everything about this model is big and bold, from its exterior dimensions and giant dash display, to its massive battery and prodigious power output. It measures about a foot longer than an Escalade, and it wears 24-inch wheels. The EV powertrain employs two motors, good for up to 750 hp, and a large 200-kWh lithium-ion battery. It uses an 800-volt architecture, which facilitates pumping up to 100 miles of range in just 10 minutes in public DC fast chargers, the company says. The seven-seat SUV can be upfitted with an optional Executive Second-Row package that turns passenger space into business class, with stowable tray table, 12.6-inch screens, massaging seats, and more. The Escalade IQ comes with a full complement of standard active safety features, such as automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, as well as Super Cruise, GM’s active driving assistance system that allows hands-free driving on mapped highways in the U.S. and Canada with a subscription. 2026 adds a 4-inch longer extended L model.
