What this rating means for the 2023 Cadillac Escalade

NHTSA gives the 2023 Cadillac Escalade 4 out of 5 stars overall. NHTSA does not publish enough comparable results for this class and year to rank it against peers.

NHTSA published results for every NCAP test in this program, so the overall star rating rests on a complete set of crash and rollover results.

Across the 7 model years we hold for the Cadillac Escalade, the figure ranges from 4-star (2017) to 5-star (2025), so the 2023 car is best read against its own model history rather than in isolation.

A star rating describes how this vehicle performed in NHTSA’s tests against other vehicles of similar mass. It is not comparable across weight classes: five stars on a small car and five on a large SUV do not describe equal crash outcomes.

About NHTSA Safety Ratings

The NHTSA New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) assigns 5-star ratings from government-funded frontal, side, and rollover crash tests — not manufacturer-reported data. Ratings, crash media, and safety-technology data are sourced directly from NHTSA.
