Cadillac Escalade IQ Crowned 2026 MotorTrend SUV Of The Year

January 06 2026,

Cadillac Escalade IQ Crowned 2026 MotorTrend SUV Of The Year

The Cadillac Escalade IQ has officially been named the 2026 MotorTrend SUV of the Year, and the recognition sends a clear message. Cadillac is not just entering the electric luxury space, it is redefining it. This award places the Escalade IQ at the top of a highly competitive field that included some of the most anticipated electric and premium SUVs on the market.

Why MotorTrend Chose the Escalade IQ

MotorTrend’s editors pointed to engineering excellence as a major reason behind the win. The Escalade IQ delivers up to 750 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque, powered by a massive 205 kWh battery pack feeding dual permanent magnet motors. That combination allows this full size luxury SUV to balance breathtaking performance with impressive efficiency, proving that size no longer limits electric capability.

Real-World Range That Changes Expectations

In testing, the Escalade IQ achieved an impressive 668 km highway range at steady speeds, reinforcing its ability to handle long distance travel with ease. Fast charging performance also stood out, with the ability to add meaningful range in short charging sessions. These results helped demonstrate that electric luxury can be practical as well as powerful.

Ride Comfort Meets Surprising Agility

Beyond numbers, MotorTrend highlighted how the Escalade IQ feels on the road. Features like four wheel steering, air suspension, and Magnetic Ride Control gave it unexpected manoeuvrability, even outperforming smaller electric SUVs in tight situations. Editors also praised the braking, cabin comfort, expansive digital displays, and the Super Cruise hands free driving system, calling it segment leading.

A New Standard for Electric Luxury

MotorTrend concluded that the Escalade IQ delivers exceptional value for its class, offering more range, technology, and luxury than many rivals costing more. The award reinforces Cadillac’s return to setting the benchmark for premium SUVs.
