The 2024 Cadillac Escalade-V brings a powerful supercharged engine to the iconic Escalade nameplate, representing the highest echelon of performance from the luxury marque’s full-size SUV. The 2024 Escalade-V offers three sets of 22-inch wheels from the factory, and Cadillac Society is now taking a look at each one, along with pricing and availability.
As standard, the 2024 Escalade-V is fitted with 22-inch 18-spoke alloy wheels with After Midnight finish and Laser Etching (production code SMM). These are the only wheels that are a no-cost option.
Meanwhile, the 22-inch Forged Multi-Spoke Polished alloy wheels with Dark Android finish and Laser Etching (production code SSV) are available at a premium, as are the 22-inch Forged Multi-Spoke alloy wheels with Satin Graphite finish and Laser Etching (production code SQO). Both of these options are LPO-level, or dealer-installed, and cost $4,495 to add to the Escalade-V. These also include a set of wheel locks, whereas the standard wheels do not.
Also note that the SQO wheels are included an only available with the Onyx package.
| RPO Code | Escalade-V | |
|---|---|---|
| 22-inch 18-Spoke alloy wheel with After Midnight finish and Laser Etching | SMM | S |
| 22-inch Forged Multi-Spoke alloy wheel with Satin Graphite finish and Laser Etching | LPO SQO | A – $4,4951 |
| 22-inch Forged Multi-Spoke Polished alloy wheel with Dark Android finish and Laser Etching | LPO SSV | A – $4,495 |
As a reminder, the Escalade-V cradles the same engine as the CT5-V Blackwing: the supercharged 6.2L V8 engine (production code LT4). Under the hood of the Escalade-V, that powerhouse is rated at 682 horsepower and 653 pound-feet of torque, making it the most powerful Cadillac ever to be produced. That engine bolts to Cadillac’s 10-speed automatic transmission, sending power to all four wheels for all-wheel-drive. Pricing for the 2024 Cadillac Escalade-V starts at $154,290.
