Cadillac follows a well known path in luxury SUV class, and presents re-adapted old model of Escalade. But we can't blame them for that, the car has marched its way up to the top of its class through years.

When we compare previous model to the new one the differences ranges from, easy to notice, door structure changes to, less obvious, front side impact airbags, and cylinder deactivation technology. When it comes to fuel consumption, this technology is well appreciated improvement, and it can reach about 20 mpg on a freeway. The reason for poor fuel efficiency lies beneath the hood. 6.2l V8 engine that was introduced last year is still burning fuel to get this four wheel mountain moving. Massive power output of 403 hp and 417 pound-feet of torque, combined with six-speed automatic transmission is responsible for a very good acceleration at any speed, and capability to reach 60 mph in just 7.5 seconds. But problems begin when it comes to stopping.The only thing that can stop this monster are its brakes, and they can hardly do their job. To come to a halt from 60 mph this car needs approximately 145 feet.

There are four different versions of this Cadillac, and even the cheapest versions come with hefty set of accessories and goodies. Auto-dimming driver side mirror, xenon headlights and 18'' alloy wheels are just example of standard exterior equipment for cheapest models. Goodies on the inside are fantastic too, AC separated in three zones, navigation system, premium audio system etc. And all of this is just for entry-level models, in Luxury and Premium models these lists are endless, but it would be unfair to forget to mention some of them.

Goodies like sophisticated adaptive suspension, blind spot warning system and a lot more for Luxury models, and ever enjoyable DVD player in Premium models.
