The Escalade looks like nothing else in the business. Yeah there are several brands copying their styling but this is the original. Stop comparing this design to other SUVs. Both Rolls Royce and Range Rover have adopted _Cadillac’s_ design language in their latest models, not the other way around. This looks like a futuristic iconic Escalade and you won’t mistake it for anything else. The Cullinans, Navigators, QX80, Range Rover, Hyundai, Kia, etc. are mimicking this beast right here. Cadillac executed the production model perfectly.
You've really lost it. Rolls Royce and Range Rover don't even look like this vehicle. WTF are you talking about? The Cullinan and Range Rover have their own look. You don't know what you're talking about and/or just plain blind.
@ The 2025 Cullinan just received thin vertical DRLs, a Cadillac signature. The Range Rover has replaced its iconic square shaped taillights and adopted Cadillac’s thin vertical LED signature lighting as well. Both Range Rover and Rolls Royce are clearly taking note of Cadillac’s design language amongst several others. You’re a known *gm* hater, I don’t expect you to cope softly.
@@G-Rated Man get outta here with this BS. A Cullinan and a Range Rover DO NOT LOOK LIKE A Cadillac. Period. Doesn't matter what lights they have. The overall look is not even remotely close to a Cadillac. You're a known GM apologist who apparently just lost their mind. I actually think this new Escalade IQ is a winner for them as the regular Escalade is, but this about Rolls and Rover copying Cadillac is just pure rubbish.
@ what’s a *gm* apologist? What would they be apologizing for exactly, killing the game?? Imagine being so delusional that you’re under the impression *gm* needs people to apologize because they accomplished exactly what Marry Barra said they were going to. I’m fully aware neither a Cullinan nor Range Rover looks like a Cadillac. Nothing else on the road looks like a Cadillac Escalade. That was partly my point, you’re just too emotional. You have to pretend the 2025 Cullinan’s new front end and Range Rover’s rear end aren’t heavy influenced by Cadillac’s exterior design language when they clearly & *visibly are* is hilarious. It wouldn’t make a difference what your opinion on the Escalade _IQ_ is, the design is undeniably Cadillac and they have a fan base of their own that’s patiently been waiting for it. Cope harder.

Beautiful design inside and out. Cadillac hit a home run was this EV! Very luxurious! Just like the Lyriq these will be very popular!Cadillac will sell lots of these.
Overall the vehicle is close to perfection. But is anyone going to mention the missing a/c outlet on the b pillar? My only complaint is GM removing the B pillar A/C outlets that was present in the pre production models to save a couple hundred bucks for a vehicle starting at 127k. Despite their removal the updated owner’s still mentioned as it existed. Since it is the first model year what are the chances GM brings this to next year’s model or add it with a platinum package?
It’s nice but really guys $135,000 US dollars is not very smart. Or should i say the IQ is my not that high/great No pun intended See what I did here 😂 I’m in Canada 🇨🇦 so that thing is way more
I've been in the Hummer EV and my friend is very satisfied with it,..GM makes some very competitive electrics..stop your hating and drive a few,you might learn a bit
@@VagabondBuilds has already had the batteries have to be replaced, and the vehicle is only six months old…. Leaking from the roof panels constantly and the other day he had to take it in because the air conditioning wouldn’t work basically $100,000 mistake he wishes he never made.
@@VagabondBuilds matter op opinion I guess!😅 if we don’t look at politics, and just common sense.. it’s not weird at all that we find new and cleaner solutions after 100 years of driving on gasoline. Remember that our phone is also developed into a tiny computer after 25 years. But I don’t think electric is the way it should go. We all know cars could drove on water many years back but yeah…. Some big ass corporation didn’t like that idea and now he’s dead. And look at the way the mine these minerals for our powerpacks…. It’s horrible!! So hydrogen is in my opinion the best solution! We should just develop it more.

I wish the gas model had this exact design.
We were actually talking about this as we were filming the review. It would have been a hit.
Looks like a real SUPER STROKE VEHICLE
Super stroke vehicle?
Does the roof open ?
No
How Heavy ?!!
8000 lbs I believe
The rear design doesn’t sit well with me. Looks odd.
The 130k price tag don't sit well with me

Good thing u can't afford it anyways.
Jk, most ppl can't though
I actually like this look. It’s new and people will grow into it.
I hear ya on that one haha but what isn’t expensive today
I love it but are you sure Apple play and android auto are available? I’ve heard that they are not with this IQ…
You are right. That was my mistake 😅
@@VagabondBuildsall good brotha! Btw I’m in Reno. Love to see more Yt’ers in the sierra nevadas!
Or a, genness. Price of houses.
Many things have the price of homes now. It’s nuts.
Beautiful, innovative car but as a personal preference would take combustion all day long.
I happen to have to agree with you!

@@hansfrancsco71 missing A/C vent? the level of nitpicking you people do with *gm* ought to be studied. 🤡
That is something I could not answer. Sorry about that.
Kinda mix between a Rolls Royce Cullinan x Range Rover
Agreed 👍🏼
Depreciation makes this a uesless chunk of metal.
That's why you lease
Like 80 percent of cars on the market. I say you buy to enjoy, life is to short.
Far from useless,..lease then buy used at a discount...it's a excellent luxury electric in every aspect
Tremendamente FEO, es horrible, ya le podrían haberle cambiado el nombre y NO haberlo llamada ESCALADE,👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Hmmmm…. Others actually like it. So I think it’s all about the preference
It’s nice but really guys $135,000 US dollars is not very smart. Or should i say the IQ is my not that high/great No pun intended
See what I did here
😂
I’m in Canada 🇨🇦 so that thing is way more
And they will get it as well. Guess time will tell and how they move off the lot.
Over priced junk! GM makes the worst EV both people i know who bought the Hummer EV says itsthe worst mistake they have ever made
I've been in the Hummer EV and my friend is very satisfied with it,..GM makes some very competitive electrics..stop your hating and drive a few,you might learn a bit
@ yea I’ve driven it for 100k there are better cars…go drive a real car then come talk to me instead of GM POS
Why? Can you explain? Many people like their Evs
I really do like the interface and electronics they use myself

130k for a beautiful electric car, that America doesn’t support anymore with this new government. Nah.. 60k doge challenger will do! 🤭😇
Is that a bad or a good thing 😅
