The V-Series line of high-performance vehicles turns 20 years old in 2024, and to celebrate, Cadillac has been periodically releasing special products and features to honor the milestone anniversary. As part of the festivities, the 2024 Cadillac Escalade-V will be treated to a handful of 20th anniversary features exclusive to the forthcoming model year.
On the outside, the 2024 Cadillac Escalade-V will sport exclusive content such as a custom grille header and puddle lamp projectors that throw a special V-Series image. These unique touches will be complemented by a unique heritage color, which will likely be Black Diamond Tricoat (paint code GLK). As one might expect, the hue will be limited in availability.
The sleek black color is also available on the 2024 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing and the 2024 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing models. At this time, it’s not clear if this color will cost extra, or how many units its run will include.
Inside, the 2024 Escalade-V will light up with a special wakeup animation.
It’s worth noting that the special V-Series treatments applied to the 2024 Cadillac Escalade-V aren’t exclusive to a special edition model – rather, they will be included on all Escalade-V units produced for the forthcoming model year.
As a reminder, under the hood, the 2023 Cadillac Escalade is motivated by the luxury marque’s supercharged 6.2L V8 engine (production code LT4). That eight-cylinder powerhouse is capable of a whopping 682 horsepower and 653 pound-feet of torque, making the Escalade-V the most powerful Cadillac ever made. That engine bolts to the 10-speed automatic transmission, throwing power to all four wheels for optimal traction.
Looking beyond the 2024 model year, the 2025 Escalade range will receive a much-awaited refresh that will bring a massive edge-to-edge display panel that is similar to what’s found inside the Cadillac Celestiq ultra-luxury electric sedan. It will also will feature restyled front and rear fascias and a set of optional 24 inch wheels
