Despite being one of Cadillac’s most popular models, the Escalade has never been offered in a high-performance V variant. But with competitors from BMW M and Mercedes-AMG raking up sales, it only made sense for Cadillac’s full-size SUV to join the performance truck game. Now, it’s finally official.
