Across 1,116 listed Cadillac Escalade IQs nationwide, the average markup is -$116 vs MSRP and 97% are listed at or below sticker, with a median advertised price of $139,777. Updated daily.
The Escalade IQ is the all-electric version of the Escalade — a dedicated EV with a 200-kWh battery, an estimated 460 miles of range in the standard configuration, and 750 horsepower in Velocity Max mode. Pricing starts above $130K and climbs quickly with options.
Two main trims: Luxury and Sport. The Sport adds the more aggressive exterior styling; the Luxury is the executive trim. Both share the same powertrain. Production has been deliberately limited as Cadillac ramps the model and dealers learn to service EVs at this size.
Pricing remains firm. Below-MSRP Escalade IQ listings are uncommon; dealer markup occasionally surfaces, particularly in California where state incentives boost demand. For buyers who specifically want a full-size luxury EV SUV in 2026, the IQ is essentially the only option that isn't a Rivian R1S or a Tesla Model X. Federal EV incentives, where applicable, narrow the price gap to the gas Escalade meaningfully.
