Al Ghandi Auto, Cadillac’s exclusive dealer partner in the UAE, has announced its participation in one of the region’s most distinguished industry exhibitions – the Auto Moto Show – promising to showcase a new era of automotive innovation. As part of its participation, Al Ghandi Auto will reveal, for the first time in the region, the Escalade-V alongside the CT5-V Blackwing, exemplifying the pinnacle of luxury performance vehicles from Cadillac. What’s more, the all-electric Cadillac LYRIQ will also be on display at the event, giving audiences a taste of the future of luxury EVs with new standards of design, innovation, and sophistication.
The Escalade has been an icon in the world of luxury SUVs for more than two decades, setting new industry benchmarks with its quintessential style and omnipresence in pop culture. The 2023 Escalade-V elevates the model’s design, performance, and technology hallmarks to create the industry’s most powerful full-size SUV, symbolized by its unmistakable sound and head-turning street presence. Proudly bearing the V-series badge of power, the Escalade-V features a 6.2-liter V-8 engine generating 682 horsepower and 885 NM of torque, as well as an automatic transmission calibrated for one speed. It will form part of the entire Cadillac’s V-Series line-up including the CT4-V and CT5-V Blackwing, showcasing the uppermost echelon of performance and craftsmanship.
