2024-2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ/IQL (EV)

[LincolnLuvr]

In production summer 2024! The IQ naming is a little bizarre but I guess it fits in with their whole "Lyriq, Celestiq, etc.." scheme.

Like a better looking BMW XM!

- Will come in IQ/IQL trims (presumably the latter is a long wheelbase model)
---- The IQ is just 3 inches shorter than the gasoline powered 2023 Escalade ESV (long wheelbase model)
- $130k starting price
- 450mile range
- 750 hp, 785 lb-ft torque
- 200kWh battery, 800V charging (adds 100 miles in 10 minutes)
- Hardware enabled ULTRACRUISE (door to door hands free navigation) but not available at launch
- Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 (from the $340k Celestiq)
- No rear wiper?
- Heat pump, V2L, 55-inch coast-to-coast LED screen (seems excessive lol)
- 19-speaker AKG standard (upgradeable to 36-speaker AKG)
- 12 cubic foot frunk; 24 inch wheels
- In production summer 2024!

GM's homepage is a joke right now. Nothing EV is coming this year. They haven't even started making the vehicles they announced last year.

2030 at this rate

Updated the original post with actual photos of the pre-production vehicle which is already under testing!

So....kill the Bolt, the one EV GM has that's actually available and selling very well, in favour of....

Really loosing momentum

artist's impression- I quite like this new 3/4 design over the Lyriq's. Less busy, classier.

Will debut on August 9!

If they put the biggest Hummer battery in a more efficient vehicle, I bet we could see some really long range figures. And some very high prices.

I'm thinking at least a 200kW battery and $100-150k pricing.

So when is Lincoln going to announce the electrified navigator? After all, a navigator is just an F150 with a cap, lots of leather, better seats, and a decent sound system.

Seeing as the explorer got pushed back and changed direction to the 'personal bullet train' design and wont be due until around 2025 same time as the project T3 truck so doubt you will see anything until then, after all they haven't even made use of the mach-e GE1 platform and stuck a Lincoln inspired top hat on it.

A navigator style top hat on the f150 frame is probably going to struggle to get 300miles of range with the current large battery not apples to apples but the Rivian R1T gets better range than the RIS. If a lucid gravity ends up getting near 400 miles of range once you get up into the higher price ranges the navigator would cost sub 300 miles range and slow charging is going to be a hard sell.

But the government says they’re ahead of the game. The leader. An innovator.

LOL.
Stop.
I just can’t…..

new spy shot. rear looks more angled than shown previously?

Oddly enough I literally just got an email from them (we briefly looked at the Lyriq). It’s being unveiled in 8 days. I’m assuming a monster sticker price.
