The 2023 Cadillac Escalade ESV, part of the fifth generation unveiled in 2021, is a luxurious full-size SUV. Two powertrains are offered: a 420-hp 6.2-liter V8 and a 277-hp 3.0-liter turbocharged diesel, both paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and available in 2WD or 4WD. Five trims—Luxury, Premium Luxury, Premium Luxury Platinum, Sport, and Sport Platinum—each add a greater level of opulence and tech. Key safety features include automated emergency braking and lane-keeping assist, while the highlight of the infotainment system is a curved OLED display with a total diagonal screen size of 38", Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a 36-speaker AKG sound system. The 2023 model carries over largely unchanged, retaining its imposing presence and refined cabin.
