AutoTrader has named the Escalade and Escalade IQ the best full‑size luxury SUVs
AutoTrader’s editorial jury has named the 2026 Cadillac Escalade and the fully electric Escalade IQ its Best Full‑Size Luxury SUV in the 2026 AutoTrader Awards announced Feb. 12, 2026. A panel of 20 automotive experts cited the pair’s blend of scale, technology and refinement, highlighting the Escalade’s pillar‑to‑pillar 55‑inch infotainment display and the IQ’s 205‑kWh battery and roughly 750‑hp dual‑motor output.
The recognition underscored Cadillac’s competitive footing across gasoline and electric large‑SUV segments.
For Cadillac, dealers and prospective buyers, the award can increase showroom interest, supply marketing assets for campaigns, and influence early‑year inventory and promotional choices.
Industry analysts say repeat awards can nudge affluent buyers cross‑shopping premium SUVs and affect leasing and residual‑value expectations in 2026.
