In my opinion .. the Escalade has the best looking EXTERIOR of any SUV including Range Rover. .. However, Cadillac must hire some Guys from Porsche (the interior experts) to improve the quality of their interiors... Does the second row comes in captains chairs.???

Yeah, totally. But Cadillac is planning to push Escalade prices even higher in the near future. Yeah, really.

No super luxurious car service would ever used nothing other an escalade. European SUv' s in the US don't even catch anyone's attention and will never compete period.

I thought this was another biased meh car review. However, I loved how you pointed to its Silverado $23k underpinnings and very valid critiques. I had the Escalade rental on the recent trip just recently and I agree with everything said. Not worth the 80k+ Caddy is asking. However, my family has a 2007 that has 230k miles that we got in as a repo about 8 years ago so its had a harsh life. Our neighbors a couple doors down had a 2002 that were handed down to their teenaged kids over the years had one that lasted until 310k miles until the transmission crapped out in 2014. Good to see neighborhood dealerships used in the video - from Agoura Hills.

Last time I checked a Chevy 1500 doesn't have a 6.2 L buddy and that third seat row is obviously for kids smart guy

Excellent review first and foremost.I see a lot of people say this vehicle is over-priced at the 90 plus thousand dollar mark. But my pricing complaint would have to start further down the family tree with the 2015,2016 Tahoe which is priced at or around $65,000 grand.

20k dollars more, but without that 20k more. You don't get those beautiful additives, like the Cadillac infotainment system, the refrigerated arm rest and many more things.

CarBuzz - Unboxing Everyday Cars and Supercars No problem. :D

I have this exact car but it’s an ESV version, it’s worth the $95k!

Stop complaining of parts sharing... your Silverado would not cost $23,000 if it wasn’t for cars like this that eat up some of the losses GM takes on base models. Also, as an AMG and M-Sport owner... I can tell you parts sharing is great. Cheaper repair prices are great. I’d rather have I dressed up part from a Silverado that costs $80 than a uniquely made part exclusively made for my CLS63 that costs $800. Even if you have money... seeing money burned repeatedly just makes you loose feelings for the car. I’m super happy with our new Platinum Escalade. Absolutely perfect SUV that blows the GLS and Q7 out of the water. The Navigator is the only other good competitor imo, but at that point I think it just comes down to personal taste... both are awesome!

Another criticism, if you are going to criticize luxury cars don't dress like Shaggy from Scooby Doo.

@carbuzz

I'm not sure why people are bashing the Escalade for its price tag. There is a huge difference compared to it cousins if you look at the level of technology it offers, luxury, style and etc. The Yukon Denali is nice but it is not as nice like the Escalade and don't stand out like the Escalade. I have no problem paying $20K grand extra for it. The current Escalade could get a major refresh and the next generation model could be substantially more different than its cousins. Also complaining that the Escalade shares the column shifter with it cousins is ridiculous. Just admit that you have a problem that the Escalade shares its platform with the Tahoe and Yukon and you refuse to consider it if you were in the market. The interior is maybe the nicest Cadillac offer, and you are trying to complain that it comes up short to the G Class and Range Rover? If there was no badge on this vehicle and it was covered up like in spy shots and you happen to get inside of it, some would think it was over $100K quite easily. And you are making a big deal out of the cargo area for nothing when you can fold the seats down. Just funny how Cadillac manage over 3700 units this past September. Cadillac is doing something right and they got me hook on this vehicle. This review needs a little bit of more polish. One of the worst reviews ever.

The Silverado is a PICKUP TRUCK... A more accurate comparison would be the Chevy Tahoe but comparing the Escalade to a pick up truck which weighs 1 1/2 to 2 tons less than the Escalade is absurd. If the quality of the shifter was subpar for a vehicle of the class, your comments would be relevant, but otherwise you're nitpicking. Whenever ANYONE sees my 2016 Escalade with Kona interior and real wood inserts, I get compliments. NO ONE complains about the shifter. Your personal and subjective hang ups about the shifter also being used in the Silverado are not keeping these > $75k vehicles from flying off dealer lots and no other luxury SUV has reached this level of iconic status which other manufacturers strive for. This vehicle has its problems, no doubt, but the shifter isn't one of them.

@carbuzzcom

7 жыл бұрын

I'm not trying to stop anyone from buying an Escalade, or any other vehicle for that matter. However, facts are facts: the Escalade is built on the same platform as the Silverado, and thus shares many components. It's great to see that Cadillac has stepped up its game to improve interior quality, etc. But if Cadillac is charging $90 some grand for an SUV, don't you think it deserves uniqueness? Nit picky? Yes. Justified constructive criticism? Absolutely.

@Kenneybrock

7 жыл бұрын

I never suggested that you were trying to stop anyone from buying this or any other vehicle, however that response seems very defensive. Clearly, you feel that your criticism is constructive, but your perception is purely subjective, and the strong sales GM is enjoying from this vehicle, which is at the top of it's class, would indicate that few people share your criticisms, constructive or otherwise. Yes, the vehicle deserves uniqueness, but GM is no different from Lexus using parts from Toyota, Infiniti using parts from Nissan or Acura using parts from Honda. The Escalade DOES have uniqueness as neither the Silverado nor the Tahoe has interior motion sensors, a digital instrument panel or CUE. Ultimately, my point remains the same... The vehicle has it's flaws, but the stuff you complain about matters to few.

I like the Cadillac Escalade except for the giant tail lights. Really? I drive a BMW X 5 and I recently broke a tail light which is half the size and it cost $500 + to replace. I just can't comprehend the purpose of this design.

The iDrive system is AWFUL. The CUE is SO MUCH more user friendly. This is coming from someone who owns a X5M and 16 Escalade. Also, I like the shiny bits on the dash. It looks nice. To me, the dash is nothing like any GM product (hence the reason Cadillac has really differentiated themselves from GM). The palstics are no different than those in any other luxury SUV. But, as you said this is a real truck. I like it because it has the best towing capacity in any full sized SUV. Also, the column shifter. It's the better design as you create so MUCH more space in the center console. Not sure what you're talking about "components". You want a different column shifter? Also, you missed the secret compartment in the dash. I'll assume you didn't know about it. ;)

Nice vehicle but as usual GM decided to cut corners when the powers that be concluded that going with the Jurassic era shift column would be good enough when this car should have either a high-quality rotary or electronic push button selector. In an SUV at this price point, it this is totally inexcusable as it looks like a poorly executed and compromised afterthought.

And as you mentioned in the video it being a gussied-up chevy, I would love to hear you review a Bentley Bentayga as being a gussied-up Volkswagon (Which it is).

you voice sound like krish fix or crish fix ummmm

small interior.

I had one of these (2016 model) on a roadtrip from coast to coast last year and yet again a great example of how not to do interiors in a luxury segment. I don't know why americans can't do good interiors in general. How hard can it be, hell just hire european interior designers to do the job if that what it takes. This truck takes way to many shortcuts with the interior for a car in that pricesegment compared to all it's rivals. The dash looks like a generic cheap korean car and there is an abundance of cheap plastic and glossy blacks. I guess real wood and the fact that the the dash doesn't flex like in the old one are the only advancements they made in the interior department. Great tow capacity, space is good if those are requirements for you, and it's a comfy ride on american straight roads but outside US this car is trash to drive compared to similar cars in the price range. I would never pay premium for a masked truck like this. To me interiors are hugely important since that's where i spend alot of time, I need "the feel", and that's where most american cars falls short. I don't know what accounts for bling, but whatever it is, if this car is bling then bling is not for me. I'd much rather buy a Volvo XC90 or equivalents of the big three germans in that pricerange over this, even without "bling". Just my opinion.
