When GM first slapped a Cadillac face on its popular Tahoe/Yukon, it created an ostentatious status symbol in the long tradition of Cadillac. The second generation is much different story. Improvements in finish, exterior and interior styling are more befitting of a vehicle commanding a premium price. The Escalade is powered by a 400hp, 6.2L V8 mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. If the chrome and 5800 lb curb weight don't make a big enough impression, 22 inch wheels are available as an option.
The Escalade adds side thorax air bags to the front seats. A USB interface is added to the center console. A new battery saver mode shuts off power when accessories drain the battery.
