Cadillac fans with a particularly strong collection in the garage now have an opportunity to add something even more distinctive: a highly limited Escalade-V built specifically for the brand’s biggest enthusiasts.
Marking Cadillac’s 125th anniversary, the 2027 Cadillac Escalade-V 125th Anniversary Collector Series is the first model in the Escalade Collector Series. Cadillac will produce 252 examples, with each receiving a unique selection of special features.
The special edition uses the V Series powertrain, including a supercharged V8 producing 682 horsepower and 652 lb-ft of torque. Its exterior is distinguished by unique 24-inch forged wheels and carbon-fiber accents.
Blue brake calipers and dark-finish badges add further visual changes, while the illuminated puddle lamps feature a design inspired by the V8.
Santorini Blue, a V-Series color that connects Cadillac’s road cars with the V-Series.R race car, is used throughout the cabin on details including the seat belts and stitching. The interior also receives exclusive badging, premium floor mats, and a blue key fob, while black and Sheer Gray two-tone materials cover the cabin.
Orders open today, and customers can choose Midnight Stone Frost or Vibrant White Tricoat exterior paint. Buyers can also select their VIN and serial number, adding another personal touch to each vehicle.
The combination of performance and rarity comes with a starting price of $239,000, including the delivery charge. With only 252 units available, the Escalade-V Collector Series is expected to sell out, although Cadillac notes that the dealer sets the final price.
