Here’s a video showing the Cadillac Escalade being put to a real-world towing test:

Cadillac Escalade Braked Vs. Unbraked Towing Capacity

All vehicles have different towing capacities based on whether or not you’re towing a trailer that has trailer brakes installed.

Trailer brakes allow the trailer to stop faster than if only the vehicle is using its brakes, allowing the vehicle to tow more weight, so braked towing capacity will always be higher than unbraked towing capacity.

Cadillac Escalade Braked Towing Capacity: up to 3,500 lbs.

Cadillac Escalade Unbraked Towing Capacity: 1,653 lbs / 750 kg

Cadillac Escalade Towing Capacity Factors

There are a few factors that affect the Cadillac Escalade tow capacity.

Model Year

The Escalade’s tow capability varied a bit by year and generation.

The early model years had a max towing capability ranging from 7,400 lbs to 8,300 lbs, while the later models had a lower “floor” for towing caps. 

Model Type

The standard Escalade models could usually tow more than the Cadillac ESV and Hybrid models.

2WD vs 4WD

Whether or not your Escalade was 2WD or 4WD also affected how much it can tow.

2WD Escalades typically had greater towing power than the 4WD versions, but there are a few exceptions based on the model year.

Wheel Size

On 2015-2020 Escalades,e the wheel size on a long wheel base Escalade affected the max towing weight.

The 20” wheel size can tow an extra 1,000 pounds on these models.

Number of Passengers

A big factor in calculating your vehicle’s towing capacity is how many passengers you’re carrying, which directly calculates into the vehicle’s GCWR.

This is true of all vehicles, not just the Cadillac Escalade, so always take into consideration the total load of your passengers and gear in addition to what you’re towing.

If you plan on towing anything with your Cadillac Escalade, you’ll need a tow hitch and wiring harness.

Depending on what you’re towing, you’re going to need a ball mount (aka a trailer ball hitch) so you can attach items for towing.

Make sure to get the right trailer ball size that matches your hitch and trailer.

Cadillac Escalade Tow Hitch

The Cadillac Escalade uses a Class 4 hitch.

Cadillac Escalade Trailer Hitch Installation

Always follow the manufacturer’s directions and use proper safety precautions.

Cadillac Escalade Trailer Hitch Installation Cost

If you’re considering having a tow hitch added to your Escalade, expect to pay between $100 and $200 to have a tow package professionally installed (excluding the cost of the tow hitch and wiring harness).

If you’re handy and looking to save money, you can install the trailer hitch and wiring harness yourself.

Hitch Receiver Vs Rear Step Bumper Towing

Some vehicles allow for bumper towing, which means you can mount a tow hitch ball directly on the bumper instead of installing a tow hitch to the vehicle’s frame.

Can I Bumper Tow With a Cadillac Escalade?

The Cadillac Escalade stock bumper is not rated for bumper towing, so you’ll need to install a frame-mounted hitch like the one we listed earlier in this guide or an aftermarket bumper with a hitch ball on it.

How Do I Know If My Cadillac Escalade Has A Tow Package?

cadillac escalade towing a travel trailer
The Cadillac Escalade can tow up to 8,300 pounds.

You can start by looking under the rear bumper of your Escalade to see if you notice a trailer hitch or trailer ball.

That will give you a good indication of if you have a tow hitch already installed on your Escalade.

Another way to research this is by checking the paperwork that came with your vehicle or taking it to a local dealer to see what’s installed.

Make sure to have your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) handy if you call the dealer so they can look up the exact specs and whether or not your vehicle has any towing packages or features installed on it.
