With that refresh, it's going to get a massive tech upgrade, borrowed from Cadillac's new flagship Celestiq. According to *[GM-Trucks]()* and *[GM Authority]()*, who cite their own sources inside GM, the 2024 Cadillac Escalade will get a full-width, pillar-to-pillar dashboard infotainment screen, instead of the current Escalade's 38 inch OLED display. In the [Celestiq](), that screen spans a massive 55 inches, larger than any other infotainment screen on the market. While the Escalade's screen might not be quite that big, [recent spy photos]() have shown a dashboard, covered with fabric, with a screen that spans its entire width. ![]() **Cadillac Celestiq interior** Cadillac likely won't carryover the Celestiq's screen exactly for the Escalade, as the former is going to start at over $300,000. If the Escalade were to get exactly the same tech, it would ruin some of the Celestiq's prestige. However, having a similar looking display, potentially with similar technology, will make the Escalade seem more upmarket. The Celestiq's screen features 8k pixel density and what Cadillac calls Digital Blinds Active Privacy, which dims the passenger side of the screen for the driver. That's so the passenger can watch movies or enjoy any other sort of media without distracting the driver. While we don't know for sure, I'd wager that the Escalade gets both of those technologies. Other cars in the Escalade's price range have similar tech, such as the BMW 7 Series's 8k theater screen and the Mercedes EQS's Hyperscreen with passenger-side dimming. ![]() **Electric Escalade IQ is coming in 2023** Hopefully Cadillac keeps its console-mounted scroll wheel for the 2024 Escalade. In the current car, there's a scroll wheel to control the infotainment screen (you can use it as a touchscreen as well) and having that physical control is helpful while driving. The Celestiq has it, too, so I'm guessing Cadillac will keep it for the 'Slade. The 2024 Cadillac Escalade should be revealed later this year, along with an electric [Escalade IQ ]()model, and we'll finally get to see just how big its new screen is. *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
