Hennessey Engineering Performance (HPE) just can’t leave good enough alone when it comes to Cadillac’s most powerful vehicles, cooking up its H1000 package to beef up the power in the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing. Now, the aftermarket tuner has unveiled its H1000 package for the Cadillac Escalade-V, harnessing even more horses from its already overkill supercharged engine.
“So many of you have asked and we could not be more excited to announce the bold 1000 HP upgrade for the 2023 Cadillac Escalade-V,” Hennessey states on a post on social media, revealing the high-powered Escalade-V upgrade.
Hennessey claims that its H1000 package for the Cadillac Escalade-V bumps the high-performance luxury SUV from its stock 682 horsepower and 653 pound-feet of torque to 1,005 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 882 pound-feet of torque at 4,300 rpm. This is accomplished by a wide range of upgrades, including the upgraded high-flow air induction system, custom camshaft, ported cylinder heads, upgraded lifters and pushrods, and high-flow catalytic converters, just to name a few. It also includes all the necessary gaskets and fluids, along with installation by a professional to ensure everything operates as intended.
Opting for the kit also includes Hennessey’s engine management program, a serial numbered engine bay plaque, along with Hennessey and H1000 exterior badging to set it apart from stock Escalade-V models. It also boasts a three-year / 36,000 mile warranty, should something go wrong with the kit in that timeframe.
Hennessey also ensures that each H1000 Cadillac Escalade-V undergoes extensive on-the-road testing even after the vehicle is signed off. The company even encourages customers to take delivery of their upgraded Escalade-V at the Pennzoil Proving Grounds in Sealy, Texas to take their high-performance luxury SUV for a spin in a controlled environment before unleashing it on the highway.
