Investing.com -- Cadillac, the luxury vehicle division of General Motors (NYSE:GM), has announced the addition of the all-electic 2026 Cadillac ESCALADE IQL to its Escalade lineup. The new model combines the features of the ESCALADE IQ with increased passenger and cargo capacity, catering to customers requiring extra space.
The ESCALADE IQL, which is set to be sold globally, is an extension of the Escalade franchise, which has been the best-selling luxury full-size SUV in North America since 2014. Production of the new model will commence in mid-2025 at General Motors’ Factory ZERO plant in Detroit, according to John Roth, vice president of Global Cadillac.
The vehicle’s design includes a longer silhouette than the ESCALADE IQ, allowing for more spaciousness in the third-row and additional rear storage. The large eTrunk compartment under the hood provides an extra 12.2 cubic feet of secure storage.
The interior of the ESCALADE IQL continues the luxurious accommodations of the ESCALADE IQ, including an Executive Second Row package with stowable tray tables, massaging, heating, and ventilated seats, and personal screens. The vehicle’s third row provides more than 4 inches of additional legroom and an additional inch of headroom, providing comfortable seating throughout the cabin.
The ESCALADE IQL also features the latest Cadillac technology, including a curved pillar-to-pillar 55-inch total diagonal display, seating for up to seven passengers, a standard AKG 4 Studio 21-speaker audio system, and Dolby Atmos for enhanced audio clarity. It also offers standard Super Cruise driver assistance technology on all trims and 5G Wi-Fi hotspot capability connected by OnStar.
The vehicle comes with vehicle-to-home (V2H) bidirectional charging capabilities, allowing for the transfer of energy between the vehicle and a properly equipped home. The ESCALADE IQL delivers up to a Cadillac-estimated 460 miles of range and can gain up to 116 miles of range in 10 minutes at a public DC Fast Charging Station.
Performance-wise, the ESCALADE IQL offers 750 hp and 785 lb-ft of torque, can go from 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds, and has a Cadillac-estimated max towing capacity of 7500 lbs. It also features Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 and Air Ride Adaptive suspension, providing precise steering and feel.
The new model will be offered in four trims – Luxury, Sport, Premium Luxury, and Premium Sport. The starting price is set at $132,695, including the destination freight charge but excluding tax, title, and dealer fees.
The Escalade franchise, with its 2025 all-electric ESCALADE IQ, the refreshed 2025 Escalade, and now the 2026 all-electric ESCALADE IQL, continues to lead the full-size luxury SUV segment, with more than 1 million units sold globally since its launch.
