Cadillac’s 9,000-pound electric Escalade offers up to 460 miles of range
Cadillac’s electric Escalade IQ pairs three-row luxury with a claimed 460-mile range, showing how a very large SUV can make long-distance electric travel practical. The review found it easier to drive than its size suggests, though its enormous weight remains a noticeable presence on the road.
The vehicle weighs 9,046 pounds and carries a battery of more than 200 kWh; the test car showed 440 miles of range on arrival. Its motors deliver 680 hp, rising to 750 hp in Velocity Max mode, and it can reach 60 mph in under five seconds. Rear-wheel steering, air suspension and standard Super Cruise aid driving, while the article notes there is no formal EPA range rating.
In short
- Cadillac claims up to 460 miles of range.
- The Escalade IQ weighs 9,046 pounds.
