2026 Cadillac Escalade ESV Sport Platinum

The Escalade ESV is the long-wheelbase version of Cadillac's full-size luxury SUV, stretching the cabin to give you limousine-like rear legroom and a much bigger cargo bay. It drives with a commanding presence, the tall seating position and heavy steering making you feel like you're piloting something truly massive, yet it stays composed on the highway. The ride is impressively smooth for its size, soaking up bumps with the air suspension, though you'll feel the occasional jiggle over sharp cracks in the pavement. Inside, the ESV is a rolling lounge with three rows of seats that actually fit adults, plus a 38-inch curved OLED display that dominates the dashboard and looks stunning at night. The Sport Platinum adds the Touring Package with soft-close doors and Air Ride Adaptive Suspension as standard, plus gloss-black exterior trim and 22-inch wheels that set it apart from the Luxury and Premium Luxury trims. Its 6.2L V8 pairs with a 10-speed automatic and four-wheel drive, managing 16 mpg combined while delivering the effortless torque you expect from a full-size luxury SUV. Super Cruise hands-free driving is included on compatible highways, and the 55-inch curved Horizon Display spans the entire dashboard for a truly immersive cockpit feel.
