Here’s Another Look At The 2025 Cadillac Escalade Interior: Photos

General Motors is cooking up a mid-cycle enhancement for the fifth-generation Cadillac Escalade, with plans to launch for the 2025 model year. Among the many updates planned for the refreshed 2025 Cadillac Escalade is an overhauled interior, complete with a new layout and new tech features. Now, GM Authority is revisiting the 2025 Cadillac Escalade interior with the following spotlight.

The interior of the refreshed 2025 Cadillac Escalade.

The centerpiece of the 2025 Cadillac Escalade’s redesigned interior is undoubtedly its expansive curved digital display panel, which stretches from pillar to pillar across the dash. The new digital screen layout mirrors the ultra-luxury aesthetics found in the Cadillac Celestiq as well as the all-electric 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ, promising a high-end infotainment experience. The new 55-inch screen will replace the 38-inch OLED screen introduced for the 2021 model year. A secondary, tablet-style screen will be included at the base of the dash and will provide inputs for the HVAC controls, once again similar to the Cadillac Escalade IQ.

Another notable update is the transition from a console-mounted Electronic Precision Shift selector to a steering-column transmission selector. This adjustment not only frees up valuable console space but also enhances the ergonomic layout of the cockpit.

The refresh extends to the air vents, which have been redesigned to complement the modern and sleek interior aesthetic. Final details include a new steering wheel.

Beyond the overhauled interior, the 2025 Escalade also sports significant exterior styling updates. Spy photos reveal a fascia that takes cues from its all-electric counterpart, the Escalade IQ, featuring new headlight designs and a dual-level grille, as well as new 24-inch alloy wheels and refreshed taillight graphics.

Under the hood, the 2025 Cadillac Escalade will continue to equip the 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine, while the optional 3.0L I6 LM2 turbodiesel Duramax will be replaced by the new 3.0L I6 LZ0 turbodiesel Duramax. The GM T1 platform will continue to provide the underpinnings, while production will once again take place at the GM Arlington plant in Texas.

  1. I just wish GM would up the quality in their paint department(they’re definitely paying them enough now)… Black Raven should be able to show your reflection as if you’re looking in a mirror.

    1. I work in a auto shop here in Los Angeles where we frequently repaint vehicles from Ferrari, Rolls Royce, Lamborghini, etc..and I can say that the Escalades we’ve had come through have a paint quality that’s on par with all the other brand. All of them are below what a “custom” paint job would give because they have to be able to last to the standard of the company in a way a typical “non car person” owner would be satisfied with. A custom paint job will look better but also require more maintenance and make it much harder to repair (Some of these cars and colors are already extremely expensive as it is). We have to match that slight “factory” orange peel texture that all of the brands (unless its a custom job). That’s what would give you that “mirror” or “glass” like finish

    2. I’m less concerned about mirror finish and more concerned about paint defects like the fleks of dirt stuck in the paint. It shouldn’t be happening, but it’s apparent from many of the vehicles coming out of the Texas plant.

      They need to study how Lexus paints their cars. They’re even better than BMW and MB.

  2. Dang it GM

    Leave the Escalade alone. Everything I’ve seen so far except the column shifter (moving it to begin with was dumb) is just worse. No one wants a touch screen for their HVAC controls. That screen looks worse. The tail lights and the front end looks worse. Trying to fix what isn’t broke is dumb.

  4. I do prefer buttons for some functions, and HVAC is one of them.

  5. Is the future an analog dash with hard wired switches? Manufacturers went from analog to digital gauges and clocks to some ultimately resorting to analog gauges and clocks, We do not need anymore driver distractions.Time will tell.
