Mansory Shows Off a Carbon-Clad Cadillac Escalade with Custom Exhaust

Mansory is dialing back the flash for a change, and this Cadillac is the proof.

Mansory Shows Off a Carbon-Clad Cadillac Escalade with Custom Exhaust

Even in North America, the Cadillac Escalade isn't safe from Mansory's reach. The German tuner has had the full-size SUV in its portfolio for a while, and its latest project is a surprising departure from the brand's usual over-the-top style.

On the outside, the Escalade gets a carbon fiber trim piece above the grille, revised bumper elements, and a sporty front splitter with integrated daytime running lights. The makeover also includes side sills, a spoiler on the tailgate, an additional roof wing, and a massive rear diffuser with four vertical fins and cutouts for the quad exhaust tips. The black accents create a sharp contrast against the white paint, while the signature Mansory wheels complete the look.

This particular vehicle is based on the pre-facelift Escalade, as the updated model sports a noticeably more modern design. However, the tuning formula here is classic Mansory: visual upgrades paired with an acoustical enhancement.

While the tuner has previously offered a power bump for the 6.2-liter V8—up to 455 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque—this build seems focused on the new exhaust note, which is prominently featured in promotional videos.

Based on posts from Mansory USA's social media, this Escalade is serving as a demo vehicle for the American market. And in an unusual move for the tuner, the result isn't loud or garish but leans toward a more understated, premium aesthetic—a rare sight from Mansory.
