Supercharging the 2024 Cadillac Escalade seems to be a highly popular option when it comes to performance upgrades – so popular, in fact, that the luxury marque itself offers the luxury SUV with a supercharger right off the showroom floor in the form of the Escalade-V. For those looking to give their Escalade the supercharged treatment, there’s a new aftermarket solution in the form of the supercharged Cadillac Escalade SRX Series from Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE).
Offered for the Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV package for rear-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive models, the custom-built SXR Series package includes a high-output supercharger built to top the luxury SUV’s stock naturally aspirated gasoline V8 (production code L87), factory rated at 420 horsepower and 460 foot-pounds of torque. There are two output options available. The first is the SVE 650 HP blower package, which brings that figure to 650 horsepower, quite a bit more than the stock Escalade, while still trailing behind the Escalade-V’s 682 horsepower.
Customers looking for even more power can opt for the SVE 800HP package, which delivers 800 horsepower, true to its name, offering “neck-snapping performance not for the faint-at-heart,” according to its description. This pack offers a blueprinted aluminum block, race-quality rotating assembly, a forged twisted steel crankshaft, upgraded cylinder heads and a high-output supercharger.
The kits also bundle quite a few exclusive accents, accessories and other upgrades, including a 91 or 93 octane calibration exhaust system, six-piston front brake calipers in red with vented rotors, and a heavy duty rear sway bar assembly. Optional six-spoke 22-inch wheels are available as part of the build, along with a lowered suspension package and retractable side steps.
For customers who want a more sinister appearance, SVE offers the Black-Out Trim Package, which includes dark-themed roof-mounted sidebars, window trim, grille surround and more. Of course, the kit also includes SXR Series fender emblems and a 650HP liftgate badge, along with the vehicle build number up to No. 50. Inside, the custom luxury SUV gets SXR Series embroidered front floor mats.
Interested parties must act fast, as SVE will only build 50 units of the 650HP and 800HP, meaning there will only be 100 total in existence. . Customers are encouraged to contact SVR for more information about the 2024 SXR Supercharged Cadillac Escalade, including pricing and availability.
