United Arab Emirates, January 20, 2025 - Cadillac Middle East has announced that its most iconic SUV has officially arrived in the region, making quite the statement in showrooms. The luxury vehicle brings both interior and exterior enhancements, exhibiting an elevated design alongside enhanced technology offerings. These unmissable statements include a curved pilar-to-pillar 55-inch total diagonal display, 24-inch wheels and an illuminated front crest.

The 2025 Escalade is available in five distinct trims – Premium Luxury, Sport, Premium Luxury Platinum, Sport Platinum, and V-Series.

The new 2025 Escalade raises the bar for luxury SUVs, elevating what owners love most about the iconic Escalade.

Design

The expectations and desires of Escalade customers are well understood by the Cadillac design team. The new 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.

A bolder front-end includes a standard illuminated front crest and, on the V-Series and Premium Luxury Platinum trims, an illuminated grille surround. Rear lighting has been refined while remaining unmistakably Escalade.

New for the 2025 Escalade are available 24-inch wheels, the largest ever offered on an Escalade, and a new exterior color Aegean Stone, a bold, deep green gray with a confident solid appearance, and power open-and-close doors are also available.

Inside, much of ESCALADE IQ’s interior design comes to life, balancing technology and luxury for an immersive experience for drivers and passengers.

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.  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. Customers can personalize their interior lighting, choosing from 126 color ambient lighting options in two zones.

Additionally, the Escalade-V receives a new authentic carbon-fiber performance-focused interior, and unique steering wheel exclusive to V-Series.
