Cadillac’s largest SUV is imposing, yet elegant and backs up its looks with impressive power, a refined chassis, and a truly luxurious interior with three rows of spacious seating. Let’s take a look at the features that make the 2024 Cadillac Escalade such a compelling ride.
1. Capable Powertrain
In its standard form, the Escalade receives a hefty 420 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque from a naturally aspirated 6.2L V8. This engine promises quick acceleration and the ability to tow over 8,000 pounds. The powertrain enjoys increased fuel efficiency with the help of its smooth 10-speed automatic transmission and dynamic fuel management system, which deactivates half of the motor’s cylinders when the extra power isn’t needed.
An optional 3.0L turbo-diesel inline-6 produces 277 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque while achieving an EPA-rated fuel economy of 27 MPG highway.
2. Assured Handling
The Escalade may be a large vehicle, but it remains easy to drive thanks to its well-weighted steering and 4-wheel independent suspension that features stabilizer bars in the front and rear. The available computer-controlled magnetic suspension further optimizes handling and ride quality across a variety of driving surfaces.
Buyers who love venturing off the beaten path will want to add the limited-slip differential and robust all-wheel drive system offered by the Escalade for greater traction in rugged environments.
3. Lots of Standard and Available Creature Comforts
Once you step into the Escalade’s beautifully designed cabin, you’ll be greeted by a host of deluxe amenities. This includes standard tri-zone climate control, ambient lighting, heating for the steering wheel and seats, and 8-way power adjustability for the driver and front passenger. The Premium Luxury Platinum trim delivers the ultimate riding experience with its power lumbar massage for the front seats and an available front center console refrigerator.
Options for the available leather upholstery range from Mondrian quilting and perforated inserts to rich colors like Dark Auburn and Brandy.
4. Fully Loaded Infotainment System
The Escalade’s standard infotainment display comes in the form of a sizable 16.9-inch touchscreen. It has a plethora of desirable features, such as wireless smartphone integration, support for SiriusXM satellite radio, and a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot. Audiophiles will be overjoyed with the fact that the vehicle sports a powerful 19-speaker AKG premium sound system. Better yet is the available AKG 3D surround sound system boasting an incredible 36 speakers.
If that wasn’t enough, the Escalade will let you add a top-notch rear entertainment system featuring a pair of 12.6-inch seatback-mounted HD screens that can stream your favorite flicks and TV shows.
The Escalade continues to set the bar for its segment when it comes to combining performance with lavish style. Make a stop at Trapp Cadillac in Houma, LA today and discover the latest model!
