The 2025 Cadillac Escalade Has A MASSIVE 55-Inch Infotainment Screen!

The 2025 Cadillac Escalade was just unveiled today, and this refresh brings subtle updates to the exterior and interior for the iconic and best-selling luxury full-size SUV.

As you can see, the 2025 Escalade incorporates advanced lighting technology inherited from ESCALADE IQ. Functional lighting elements move from a horizontal to vertical arrangement, reinforcing the strong Cadillac identity — both during the day and at night.

Bolder front-end details are inspired by the CELESTIQ and LYRIQ design language, including a standard illuminated front crest and, on the V-Series and Premium Luxury Platinum trims, an illuminated grille surround. Rear lighting has been refined but remains unmistakably Escalade.

New for the 2025 Escalade are available 24-inch wheels, along with three new exterior colors: Aegean Stone, a bold, deep green gray with a confident solid appearance; Deep Sea Metallic, a rich metallic blue with a hint of gold in the highlight; and Latte Metallic, a modern light bronze with elegant metallic effect. Power open-and-close doors are also available.

But the real changes happen on the inside. The interior features an available Executive Second Row package that blends beauty with task-oriented functionality featuring stowable tray tables, 12.6-inch-diagonal personal screens, a rear command center, dual wireless phone charging pads, massaging seats and headrest speakers.

Two new interior palette options are available – Renaissance Red features a leather interior, adorned with a faceted quilt and perforated seats, and a dark open pore wood veneer with a high contrast pore filler to complete the look. Jet Black and Sheer Gray features a contrasting leather and heathered grey fabric, faceted quilted and perforated seats, and high gloss wood veneer utilizing a linear marquetry technique to create a layering effect of tones and textures.

And then there’s the curved pillar-to-pillar 55-inch infotainment display for an immersive and personalized experience, complete with voice control, navigation, app store, and more. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also available. An AKG Studio 19-speaker audio system is standard, with an optional AKG Studio Reference 36-speaker system, which increases to 40 speakers with available Executive Second Row package.

What else? How about available power open-and-close exterior door entry system (standard on Platinum and V-Series trims). All four doors power open and close at the touch of a button on the door handle or from the command center, and if activated, the driver’s door will automatically open as the driver approaches with the key fob. Super cool!

“The Cadillac Escalade has always been about bold American craftsmanship, technology and performance, and has continuously raised the standard of full-size SUV luxury since it was introduced 25 years ago,” said John Roth, vice president, Global Cadillac. “The Escalade franchise has defined Cadillac for five generations. As the best-selling luxury full-size SUV in North America since 2014, and with more than 1 million units sold globally, the expansion of the portfolio to include a refreshed Escalade and the all-new all-electric ESCALADE IQ later this year positions the brand well to offer an Escalade that meets the needs of all customers.”

The 2025 Cadillac Escalade is slated to start production later this year, with additional details and pricing to be announced in the future. Personally, I can’t wait to see that infotainment screen for myself, as it just looks bonkers.
