2015 Cadillac Escalade Video Road Test - The Car Connection

Then Cadillac came along and crashed the party with the Escalade. This year, there's a brand-new Escalade and it's more impressive than ever--but is it enough to take on the likes of the Range Rover and Mercedes-Benz GL-Class. Bold, big, and of course, truly American, the Escalade wears its sharp-edged sheetmetal with pride. The roofline and sills have Armani creases, and the Escalade's also added gorgeous stacked LED headlights and huge LED taillights. The cabin hits new heights in the Escalade. If you’ve been in a Cadillac recently you’ll recognize the CUE infotainment system, for better or worse. These front seats are comfortable, and there’s an additional 4 inches of legroom up here compared to the previous Escalade. In the second row you’ll find standard heated bucket seats. They're a little narrow, and the armrests sit a little low, but leg and head room are better than ever. The standard third-row is absolutely usable for adults, but if you plan to take a road trip, you’ll need the long-wheelbase ESV model. The third row folds flat, but when it's tucked away, it hides inside this casing that's obviously an add-on piece--it's not as well integrated as the one in the Navigator.
