The other day, the American automaker announced a new electric SUV, which will be called the Escalade IQ. The online magazine kolesa.ru has compiled its own idea of what the novelty will look like.
The Escalade model dates back to 1998, when the first generation of a full-size SUV appeared. Today, the fifth generation is already on the conveyor, the premiere of which took place at the beginning of 2020. And most recently, the first electric modification of the Escalade was announced with the IQ prefix to the name. What will it look like?

So far, we only have spy photos of the prototypes, the bodies of which are hidden under a thick layer of camouflage, but you can already notice the differences in proportions from the traditional Escalade. The novelty will receive a lower roof and a shorter rear overhang. Most likely, the design will be made in the style of other electric models of the company – Lyriq and Celestiq. In this case, a new trapezoidal radiator grille (more precisely, its imitation) and “two-story” headlights will appear in front. At the back, more sloping glass and L-shaped lights can be made that go into the sidewalls.

The novelty is expected to share the technical part with the new GMC Hummer EV electric SUV, which was introduced two years ago. The latter is made on the Hummer BT1 platform, and its three-engine installation (one on the front axle and two on the rear) produces a total of 842 or 1014 hp. The declared power reserve of the electric Hummer is 483 km. Surely Cadillac will receive less powerful modifications with two electric motors, the GMC Hummer EV also has one and develops 634 hp.
