Video Summary
Here’s a summary of the YouTube video review:This is the Cadillac Escalade IQ, which costs $153,000 and it's built on the V24 module and not the Ultium pack. The usable battery is 215-kilowatt hours with 240-kilowatt hours gross and has 24 inch wheels. It has power open and closing doors, and that it has a passenger screen.
The Escalade is the new pinnacle of the V platform formerly known as Ultium. It rides on 24-inch wheels, has an air suspension and a big front trunk.
As the most expensive car reviewed, this Escalade IQ is Cadillac's nicest vehicle, outside of the Celestiq, which is not very common.
Features
- All-black front end.
- Black roof as an option.
- A big front trunk.
- Power open/close doors.
- 24-inch wheels with aero-wheel style inserts.
- The vehicle is beastly, monstrous, and intimidating.
- Can charge at Tesla superchargers.
- A fully mapped route provides the driver assistance.
- It can function in 400 and 800 Volts.
- Has the automatic emergency features in the seats and steering wheel.
- Good amount of legroom in the second row, but the third row is small.
- Wiper fluid and 12-volt battery located inside the front trunk.
- The rear-view camera mirror is a must-have.
- High power charging reaches almost 400 kW.
Regarding range: the 240 kWh battery allows for about 450 miles.
The steering wheel is effortlessly light. However, with acceleration mode turned on, it does tend to torque steer considerably.
The reviewer found the car so quiet even at 70 miles per hour that the power window could be heard moving. With such a massive battery, this Cadillac would take about 4:30 hours to charge. The reviewers like the quick toggle buttons, but wish there were better labeling. Reviewers also like the glass roof and the extra passenger camera that the glass roof allows for a good camera angle.
Overall, this Escalade is a great car that shows a strong commitment to luxury and electric technology, but is a very expensive endeavor.
