Super Cruise Awarded MotorTrend Best Hands-Free Driving Tech for 2025

Cadillac has always stood for the finest in American luxury, and a bold new program is taking that commitment to an entirely new level. Meet Curated by Cadillac ESCALADE IQ, an ultra-exclusive, concierge-led customization experience that brings the hand-built artistry of the legendary CELESTIQ to Cadillac's all-electric flagship SUV. This is not a trim level or an options package. This is a genuinely bespoke vehicle, built to reflect the individual taste of a single client, guided every step of the way by Cadillac's expert design team. The scope of personalization available through the Curated by Cadillac program is genuinely extraordinary. Clients work with a dedicated design concierge who guides the entire customization journey from initial inspiration through final configuration, ensuring every choice is intentional and cohesive. On the exterior, clients can choose from more than 160 premium colors and finishes, spanning solids, metallics, tri-coats, frosts, and mattes, each hand-painted to Cadillac's most elevated quality standards. Inside, an expanded palette of up to 44 interior colors can be applied across all three rows of seating, the center console, and floor mats, creating a cabin environment that is truly one of a kind. Every Curated by Cadillac ESCALADE IQ is marked with a unique VIN and an exclusive serialized builder's badge, ensuring that no two vehicles are alike and that each one carries the distinction of true handcrafted artistry. The ESCALADE IQ at the heart of this program is no ordinary electric vehicle. With a Cadillac-estimated 465 miles of range, up to 750 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque in Velocity Max mode, and a 0 to 60 mph time of 4.7 seconds, it delivers the kind of effortless, commanding performance that ESCALADE owners expect and then some. A breathtaking 55-inch Horizon display keeps driver and passengers connected and informed, while Super Cruise hands-free driver assistance technology, backed by a three-year OnStar Super Cruise plan, brings confidence to every mile. Available vehicle-to-home bidirectional charging with compatible GM Energy products makes daily charging as seamless as the rest of the ownership experience. Every Curated by Cadillac ESCALADE IQ is hand-built at Cadillac's Artisan Center in Warren, Michigan for the 2027 model year, available in the U.S. and Canada with deliveries expected to begin in the second half of 2027. The Curated by Cadillac package is priced at $54,995, in addition to the vehicle MSRP. For those who want a preview of what is possible, a Curated by Cadillac ESCALADE IQ concept was on display at The Quail in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California on August 14, 2026, one of the most prestigious automotive gatherings in the world.

Cadillac Racing continues to make an impact both on and off the track, recently earning the prestigious 2026 DHL Sustainable Endurance Award in the Hypercar category. Presented in conjunction with the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans by the FIA, ACO, and DHL, the award recognizes outstanding sustainability efforts within endurance racing. Cadillac Racing was honored for its comprehensive sustainability program, which focuses on reducing environmental impact through measurable initiatives across race logistics, hospitality operations, waste reduction, procurement practices, and community engagement. Judges praised the team's structured approach and the tangible results achieved throughout its Le Mans operations. Among the standout initiatives was Cadillac Racing's commitment to more sustainable transportation methods. The team increased its use of sea freight for transporting equipment, utilized rail travel for U.S.-based staff traveling between Paris and Le Mans, and expanded local sourcing and storage solutions throughout Europe to reduce emissions associated with logistics. The award also recognized Cadillac Racing's efforts to improve sustainability within its hospitality operations. The team implemented energy monitoring systems, reused hospitality structures, utilized LED lighting and energy-efficient appliances, and adopted strategies to reduce overall energy consumption. Cadillac Racing's catering program made significant strides as well, lowering the average carbon footprint of meals through increased plant-based offerings, reduced beef consumption, local sourcing initiatives, and food donation programs that supported local charitable organizations. Additional achievements included reducing single-use plastics through reusable water bottle programs, hydration stations, and the elimination of disposable plastic products in hospitality areas. These efforts helped prevent thousands of plastic bottles from entering the waste stream. Beyond environmental initiatives, Cadillac Racing was also recognized for its support of women in motorsports and STEAM programs, responsible procurement practices, and meaningful community outreach efforts in the Le Mans region. Accepting the award on behalf of the team, Cadillac Racing representatives emphasized that the recognition reflects the dedication of countless team members, partners, suppliers, and organizations working together to improve sustainability throughout the sport.
