Last month, Cadillac announced the new Escalade Sport – a new, blacked-out appearance package for what will all but certainly be the last model year of the current-, fourth-generation Escalade. At the time of the announcement, Cadillac provided only one photo of the appearance package. But we caught up to the Escalade Sport at the Los Angeles International Auto Show, and got some live pictures, which we are sharing with you here.
The Escalade Sport is all about a sinister appearance that blacks out exterior elements typically finished in a shiny material on “regular” Escalade models.
At the front, the new Escalade Sport features gloss black front (upper and lower) grilles.
The black theme continues to the side, with gloss-black window moldings (around the windows) and body-side trim pieces (the trim piece that runs the length of the vehicle, just above the running boards).
Out back, the horizontal accents spanning from the Cadillac logo are also finished in black.
The entire ensemble rides on a set of menacing and unique “Midnight Silver” 22-inch wheels.
Outside of these changes, the full-size luxury SUV remains identical to the Escalade we know and love.
The new Escalade Sport is offered on the Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Platinum trim levels of the 2019 Escalade.
But Cadillac's F1 driver roster has yet to be confirmed.
There's still time to get one of Cadillac's last ICE-powered compact crossovers.
And this change would help it escape the sales doldrums.
The federal tax credits for EVs are expected to go away at the end of…
It's the luxury marque's first overall victory in the series.
Spike strips and pit maneuvers for the win.
