NEW Mercedes G-Class vs Escalade IQ ⧸⧸ Battle Of The Silent Ballers

The 2025 Cadillac Escalade IQ ($157,399 starting in Canada, $127,700 in the US) and the Mercedes-Benz G 580 ($206,000 starting in Canada, $161,500 in the US) are two big EV versions of their beloved gas-engined counterparts. The Escalade IQ has 785 lb ft of torque, a healthy 740 km of estimated range, and packs all sorts of Escalade-esque tech and features. The G580 has a whopping 859 lb ft of torque, classic G-Wagon styling and off-road capabilities, but only a paltry 385 km of range. But which would you choose as your big, bad, luxury EV? Thomas and James can’t wait to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. Subscribe!
