The Cadillac Escalade is the King of Luxury

When you have massive size you can easily add a full slate of luxury features. Such is the case with the impressive Cadillac Escalade.

This SUV has been the standard by which other luxury SUVs aspire to while it remains at the top of the list. If you want to drive an SUV that is considered the “King of Luxury” you’ll want to get behind the wheel of the Escalade.

Every Single Trim Level Brings You Luxurious Features

The Ride is Amazing

Telling you about the features of each trim only touches the surface of what you’ll find in this large Cadillac. We haven’t gotten into the options or some of the amazing qualities this SUV brings to the market.
To start with, the ride is much smoother than before and you’ll find more cargo room in the rear of the Cadillac Escalade. These two qualities are the result of the independent rear suspension that has been added to this impressive vehicle. Let your family experience a smooth and impressive drive when you take them to your favorite weekend destination.

The cabin is More Spacious

No matter which seat you’re in, you’ll be comfortable in the Escalade. There are now ten more inches of legroom than before, making it easy for you to put your legs out in front of you, even if you’re in the third row. With the third row folded down, you’ll see 63 cubic feet of cargo room, which is an increase from the 51.6 cubic feet of the previous model.

The Screen of the Cadillac Escalade is Something to Behold

This large SUV has a wide dashboard, which is dominated by 38 diagonal inches of display area with the massive, curved OLED screen. This screen area is comprised of three digital panels of information. You’ll see a 14.2-inch panel with the driver information in front of the steering wheel, a large screen in the middle gives you the infotainment and connectivity you desire, and a screen to the right of that to give your passengers a screen they can use.

A New Engine Shows Up

We’ve known the 6.2-liter V8 engine that GM puts into every Cadillac Escalade for several years. This engine still gives you the strength you want with 420 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft. of torque. For the 2021 version, we now have a 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder diesel engine as an option. This engine brings you 277 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft. of torque for your drive. The diesel engine is more efficient and could be the right engine for your drive.
