23 years ago, the concept of a Cadillac SUV was created anew.
And now, in a world where luxury SUVs and luxury performance SUVs have reached new heights, Cadillac has released a performance version of its iconic scaled SUV as part of its V-series of performance-oriented vehicles. It goes on sale this summer, starting at $ 149,990 and doesn’t take the letter V lightly. We know Escalade for big, price, footprint and attention and adds great performance to the new 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V mix.
Since 2004, the V-Series has been the index of some of the best luxury performance cars in the world, and in those 18 years, the letter V has created quite a legacy for Cadillac, which is responsible for the holder and expansion of the Escalade-V. . To that end, the Escalade-V gets a supercharged V8 engine with an incredible 682 horsepower and 653 lb / f torque, making it the most powerful SUV in the full-size class. With an all-wheel-drive system that is always active, it takes 4.4 seconds to get from 0 to 60, and the quarter-mile is completed at 110 miles per hour in 12.74 seconds. The Cadillac Escalade-V may be big, but it’s not lazy in any way.
