Description

The 2023 Cadillac Escalade represents the fifth generation of Cadillac’s flagship full-size luxury SUV, introduced for the 2021 model year with substantial improvements to interior space, technology integration, and overall refinement. The Sport configuration features performance-oriented equipment and enhanced styling elements that distinguish it within the Escalade lineup.

The exterior is finished in Black Raven and features monochromatic badging from the Onyx Package, which also includes Cadillac crest puddle lamps and 22-inch 12-spoke gloss black wheels. The Touring Package adds illuminated sill plates, soft-close doors, and air ride adaptive suspension. Power retracting side steps and a power-operated panoramic sunroof are noted among the exterior equipment. The post-repossession inspection documents some chips on front-end components consistent with normal use.

The interior combines Brandy and Dark Atmosphere leather upholstery across three rows of seating. The front seats are heated, ventilated, and power-adjustable, while the second-row bucket seats are heated. The third row features power-folding functionality. Tri-zone automatic climate control provides individual temperature management. The cabin layout emphasizes space and technology, with the fifth-generation platform offering increased room for second- and third-row passengers compared to previous iterations.

Power is provided by a naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 engine rated at 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. Output is routed through a 10-speed automatic transmission to a four-wheel-drive system with a 2-speed transfer case and electronic limited-slip differential. The air ride adaptive suspension works in conjunction with Magnetic Ride Control to manage ride quality and handling characteristics. A front and rear performance brake kit is installed as factory equipment.

Technology features are extensive and include a 16.9-inch infotainment display, 14.2-inch digital gauge cluster, head-up display, night vision system, and Super Cruise semi-autonomous driving capability (subscription required). Connectivity options include wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless device charging, and a navigation system. The AKG Studio 19-speaker audio system and rear seat entertainment system address multimedia needs. Driver-assistance features consist of enhanced automatic emergency braking, enhanced auto parking assist, and lane-keep assist with lane departure warning.

The Heavy-Duty Trailering Package equips this Escalade with an auxiliary trailer camera, trailer tire pressure monitor system, Trailering Assist guidelines, and an extra capacity cooling system to support towing operations.

Auctioneer’s Notes

This Escalade Sport represents a well-equipped example of Cadillac’s flagship SUV with particularly desirable factory packages.

The 16.9-inch infotainment system, night vision, Super Cruise capability, and rear seat entertainment system reflect Cadillac’s focus on advanced features. The low mileage and recent service history add to the appeal. This vehicle is offered as a repossessed asset with all details gathered from the post-repossession inspection and available documentation.
