Last month, GM Authority published exclusive photos of a 2021 Cadillac Escalade Sport installed with the optional Onyx Package deal. Unfortunately, GM/ Cadillac are not able to supply the Onyx Package deal because it includes 22-inch 12-spoke Gloss Black alloy tires, which are not available due to a supply problem .

Therefore , it seems suitable to show you a new reside photo gallery of a Cadillac Escalade Sport with no Onyx Package, since the is possible to buy the vehicle noticed here at present. Like the 1 shown in our previous photo gallery, this one is painted Dark Raven, but the extra dark items included in the Onyx Deal are obviously not existing here.

One difference can be immediately apparent at the severe front of the vehicle. Since standard, the Cadillac Escalade has an emblem on the front side grille with the usual reddish colored, yellow and blue highlights. This contrasts strongly with all the monochrome badge that’s portion of the Onyx Package.

The vehicle proven here wears the 22-inch 12-spoke polished wheels along with Dark Android finish ( RPO program code SMD), that are standard on the 2021 The cadillac Escalade Sport and 2021 Escalade Sport Platinum. These types of 22-inch wheels are not influenced by the same availability issues since the 22-inch, 12-spoke Gloss Dark alloy wheels that are portion of the Onyx package.

Since the tires have dark accents, they provide somewhat of a contrast towards the Black Raven paintwork. People who would normally order the particular Onyx Package are likely seeking to avoid having such a comparison on their vehicles, unless they will opt for a body color that’s not really black.

More contrasts are usually evident at the rear, exactly where once again the Cadillac symbol is shown with its conventional colors, rather than in grayscale.

This vehicle also has the typical Escalade nameplate and 600 badging . By comparison, both products are Gloss Black within the Onyx Package. The six hundred badge shows that this The cadillac Escalade Sport is installed with the naturally-aspirated 6. 2L OF V8 L87 gas engine, which produces 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. The Escalade Diesel lately started production with the 3. 0L I6 LM2 turbo-diesel Duramax engine, which is ranked at 277 horsepower as well as the same 460 pound-feet torque capacity.

For those questioning, the 600 figure signifies the torque output within Newton meters, rounded towards the nearest 50 (the real figure is 623 Nm). Meanwhile, the Escalade diesel powered wear a 600D logo, to denote its diesel powered heart.

Although it is not noticeable from exterior photos consumed daylight, the Escalade Sports activity shown here also does not have the Premium carpeted ground mats and illuminated The cadillac Crest puddle lamps that are also part of the Onyx Package deal.

As GENERAL MOTORS Authority was your very first to reveal in January, all LPO (dealer-installed) 22-inch GM tires are unavailable to purchase, due to constraints in the provide chain. We subsequently explained that this is not the production issue, but an instance of imported wheels waiting around to clear customs in La after being shipped over the Pacific Ocean from Tiongkok. The Onyx Package will stay unavailable until this issue is certainly resolved (though we’re right now hearing that GM will be attempting to circumvent the issue simply by getting the wheels across the ocean by air).

It is priced to start on $77, 490 (including $1, 295 destination charge) for your base Luxury trim degree model with rear-wheel-drive plus either of the two motors mentioned previously.
