The 2023 Cadillac Escalade 600 in the Premium Luxury trim level will now start at $91,390, while the Escalade 600 in the Sport trim will be priced to start at $94,390. Meanwhile, the range-toping Premium Luxury Platinum 600 and Sport Platinum 600 will both start at $108,890. 4WD can be optioned on any Cadillac Escalade or Escalade ESV trim for an extra $3,000, except Escalade-V variants, which feature 4WD as standard. The 3.0L LM2 I-6 turbodiesel Duramax engine remains a no-cost option on the Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV for the 2023 model year, as well.
This will be the second price increase for the 2023 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV this year. When the 2023 model first launched, it was priced to start at $79,590. Then, as GM Authority was first to report in August, the Escalade got a $2,000 increase to a new starting price of $81,590. This price hike was the result of an effective $500 increase in the actual MSRP of the 2023 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, as well as another $1,500 from the addition of the mandatory three-year OnStar & Connected Services Plan. The OnStar and Connected Service plan adds OnStar plus an active connection for the built-in 4G LTE modem to power vehicle apps like the smartphone-based remote key fob via the myBrand apps, Alexa Built-In AI assistant, Spotify, Audiobooks, Maps+ navigation and more.
With this latest increase, the starting price of the Escalade has risen $3,000 so far this year.
Production of the 2023 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV kicked off on July 18th at the GM Arlington plant in Texas, bringing minor changes and updates, along with the all-new high-performance Escalade-V variant.
