2015 Cadillac Escalade – Redline: Review

Spared from the dreaded alpha-numeric nomenclature ever so common in the luxury class, Cadillac gives its best-seller the redesign it desperately needed, but are the changes enough to make you forget about its lowered price offerings from GMC and Chevrolet?

A lot of people fail to mention that these caddys are very reliable. I owned a Navigator and even though i loved the truck, it was trash. Engine failed at 90k miles. My 09 Escalade has 120k miles with no problems. I'll stick with Cadillac!!

The car is almost 10 years old and it’s incredible how far we’ve come with car features and quality

"understore floorage" nice haha

[clovisthefirst]

this is a true 100% luxury SUV unlike the Lincoln navigator which is not even in the same league more comparable to a Yukon (with no options) or Tahoe, well done Cadillac.

I don't care! I love big SUVs. I have a 05 Escalade I gave to my brother and his family bcuz they needed a car. 😭. That is one reliable SUV. This Caddy is my dream SUV. The 2015. I will be getting one soon. 🙏🏽

Very big vehicle, house on wheels. Very comfortable especially when someone else is driving.

[Veyronp]

definitely a nice truck. gaudy but thats part of its charm. 2 things though: of course the price, 90k is a bit high for a cadillac IMO. also, always amazes me how space inefficient GM suv's are

Hey you should also do the 2015 Chevy SS. You're a pure enthusiast, GM Gave us Magnetic Ride Control, and the Manual Transmission for 2015. I haven't tested it yet, Im dying to see how that combo works.

They should put the CTS-V engine in this.

Great review, Hope GM is watching I have a 2007 with lots of issues, looking to upgrade to the newer escalade cant wait to get my paws on it.. Thank you

[bobbyyy.]

Going on 4 years and the Escalade is still good looking!!! I can’t believe all new generation of the Escalade is 1 year away from coming!

Cadillac will keep the Escalade as long as there is a Real Housewives of where the hell ever

The navigation system can be dangerous. It will not permit the PASSENGER to enter an address while the vehicle is in motion. This requires additional, and unnecessary maneuvering on the part of the driver to get the vehicle stopped and then back underway again. Voice command does exist, however it is unreliable. You would be better off to get the vehicle without the built-in navigation and buy a separate navigation system that will allow the passenger to enter an address while in motion.

Nothing against the vehicle but every person I see who drives one has personalized plates and needs to be recognized.  A self-help book may be a better investment.

New designed Escalade is already a good looking car among all american brands. However, I prefer add 10k more then go for the Range Rover or Porsche Cayenne. Those are the truly definition of "LUXURY".

[tjhouston]

This thing still looks fresh even with the new Escalade and the brand new IQ

With the overall ownership experience I had with 2 previous 07 and 09 Escalades, I'd probably go with a GL instead. I really liked the 09 Escalade, it was a Platinum, it just had this certain easy-going charm about it and it drove smaller than it actually was. That said, both the 07 and the 09 were full of problems and fell apart after 40k miles. The short wheelbase with 22" wheels rides quite choppy as well. Transmits quite a lot of harshness to the cabin and with the way the interiors were put together, made it quite shuddery and rattly. It handled great though with a nice light steering feel and awesome road presence. But I feel like that charm is gone on the new ones, they're too bulky and square.

Quite details review. Without lane change steering adjuster?! :( I think Cadillac need to add that into this price range SUV. Rough on wood trims :( but I love the headlights, LED side markers and tail lights. 👍🏼👍🏼
We expect Cadillac to be ultra luxury and perfection.

what are the four packages again
and does this package automatically come with the tv screen? and 4x4

[TheHamm]

These more recent reviews are sounding a bit rushed and as a result we have understore florage + Sierra Brown, ain't it Kona Brown?
