At first glance, this Cadillac Escalade may appear as just another premium full-size SUV, but it harbors a remarkable secret within. Indeed, it boasts bulletproof capabilities, ensuring enhanced safety while navigating perilous roads.

The original 2026 Cadillac Escalade

The seller does not specify any armor on the doors, roof, floor, or front and rear sections. Thus, we infer that the vehicle’s bulletproof capabilities are substantial, sufficient to withstand a 9mm bullet (or larger) and allow safe escape for occupants.

In addition to thicker-than-usual windows, this 2026 Cadillac Escalade is said to feature upgraded suspension and brakes, better handling the increased weight.

Ultimately, this vehicle lacks full-scale armor to resist hand grenades or automatic machine guns. Are those standard-looking wheels equipped with run-flat tires?

This family-friendly SUV features an all-black exterior, devoid of chrome accents, enhancing its mysterious allure. Social media images reveal emergency lights behind the black grille, adorned with GM’s luxury brand emblem.

The logo is also visible on the rear door. The interior is minimalist, predominantly black with contrasting white stitching and accents, centered around a large screen spanning the dashboard.

This armored Cadillac Escalade, a 2026 ESV Sport model, has only delivery mileage (30 miles or 48 km) and is equipped with all-wheel drive.

Powering this vehicle is a standard 6.2-liter V8 engine, delivering 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft (624 Nm) of torque, with no performance upgrades. Officially, the Cadillac Escalade ESV can tow up to 8,000 pounds (3,629 kg), while the standard model manages 8,100 pounds (3,674 kg).

This 7-seat full-size SUV starts at $91,100 (MSRP) for the 2026 base model, with the ESV Platinum Sport 4WD beginning at $99,925. This armored variant is listed at $219,980.
