The 2021 Cadillac Escalade Review – Can you handle this Gutsy SUV?

Today, we have prepared the 2021 Cadillac Escalade Review. The Cadillac Escalade has been the biggest and most expensive SUV offering from General Motors. The Cadillac Escalade always has been one of the largest SUVs on the market, but this time Cadillac has made it bigger and made huge improvements on the interior; a good example would be a 38inch curved OLED screen and augmented reality navigation system. The Cadillac Escalade still has a 6.2L V8 under the hood cranking 420hp and 460lb. ft of torque. And the engine is mated to a 10 speed automatic. It’s not quick, but it gets the job done smoothly. And the best improvement about this new Escalade is the now it has new independent + air suspension. The new suspension system both improves handling and also a smooth ride. Overall, this new Cadillac Escalade is a huge leap from the last generation. So, if you are okay with the heavy price tag, then you should be delighted about the new changes. Now, let’s go see how this big Caddy takes corners!

I think you loved driving the Cadillac Escalade. You seemed downright giddy a few times. It's pretty hard to give up a living room on wheels once you're used to it.

Interesting seeing this behemoth in Korea, interesting to see you drive it.

I love that oled screen! I asked my father about the escalade cause he used to have a 2018 escalade, then changed to a 2020 Lexus LX 570. He told me he liked the inside of the 2021 escalade but he didn't like the front, cause the old escalade had a cadillac signature on the headlights. The new one doesn't.

I had the Jeep Wagoneer, Escalade and Navigator together.

THE WAGONEER is the BEST.

Nice, its crazy what GM is capable of when not cutting corners, always love the reviews.

I love the new interior but there is one thing I would change for this specific model. I'm not sure if it's possible to but I would get rid of the glossy wood and replace it with matte open pore wood or even some aluminum. A smaller issue is the switchgear. I would like Cadillac to use more exclusive switchgear instead of sharing the same switches from their Chevrolet and GMC brands. When you get up to this price, the smallest of details make the biggest differences.

GM has the edge when it comes to big SUVs... 😏

always love to comment on your amazing videos Carlie.
American cars looks so bigger, I don't really think I'm surrounded by the intimacy of a warm interior that feels like you belong in your car. The power of the engine gives attention, and feels the power to launch to the limits of Satisfaction. I think I prefer Korean cars, because I see real modernization, and keeping pace with the future.

never knew they had escalades in Korea. was this one imported or do they actually sell this car in korea. if they sell it do they also have the GMC Yukon and Chevy Tahoe/ suburban?

LOVE this new Caddy!! But it's just too big ! It doesn't fit in the parking spots and some roads would be impassible with this beast. And the engine tax would be severe! Not really suitable for Korea.

[Totof]

What about a test between Genesis SUV and American SUV ? What do you prefer ?

[yes]

Honestly the best looking American suv for me

[StormKleist]

Wonder whether the Ioniq 7 will be the same size? 🤔

[godblesshamas]

I already bought a GV80 with HDA II but almost went with a Caddy just for the hands-free driving. The Bolt EUV has Super Cruise too tho, so might get it with an EV.

[eugene]

Do you have an escalade long wheelbase in Korea? also, i heard it was 37 celsius every day of the week in Korea in Seoul how did you manage the heat and humidity

[conny]

The bigger the engine, the bigger your smile...lol
