You feel like a boss when driving the Escalade
I have this car and let me tell you it’s amazing. I love the look of it and how it’s so square. I guess the navigator looks nice and all but the shape of this car is just so presteen and beautiful. I preordered this car with every single package it comes with and it came to be around $150,000 with tax and all and yes it’s expensive and you could get the navigator for cheaper but this car blows my mind and when I saw it I literally fell in love.
A new Escalade is right around the corner.
Yea and the 2021 is ugly😒. I’d rather get a 2019 (best one yet) the only reason I’d get the 2021 is for super cruze. But the 2021 Yukon tho😍. Just my opinion.
@@natetarbox6660 I seen it in person. It looks great. Quality is really good to. 2021 makes the 2019 look small and cheap tbh. I like both. The 2021 Yukon is really nice also. GM full-size SUV's always been my favorite.
Very useful report for an interested buyer!
What a beautiful truck
My brand new loaded 2002 Escalade was only $52,000.00! I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 Overland now and I can do way more with it for way way less.
Buck Johnson that was stupid you could have gotten a 2015 Escalade for that amount.
Great coverage of the ESV... I'm using a rental Escalade ESV at the moment... I ordered a custom Cadillac Escalade ESV platinum with a few add ons $115,000 total. GOD has REALLY Blessed me☺️😊☺️
I don't understand the hate on the column shifter, it's gms signature, and once you get used to them they actually feel great, id rather use an actual physical shifter to put my vehicle into gears then "piano keys" amyway
Manufacturers are damned if they do, damned if they don't. lol
Japheth Bonnema FINALLY someone who agrees with me!! Thank you!!
The column shifter is my favorite type of shifter.
Think the perfect SUV would be the Escalades body with the Navigators interior. I also love how the front lights and symbol light up on the Navi. I like front end more on Caddy, the whole body on the Caddy looks great but Navigator has better interior. t. And even though Caddy has the brand name and they've been the popular SUV for the last 20 years the new Navigator's insides are much better.
The Escalade is gonna need to step it up in next two years with a new interior design to keep up with the Navigator.
I love escalade
Yeah the new navigator looks nice, but the escalade has a presence on the road that the lincoln doesn't have.
Oh so you have actually drove or seen the Navigator in person
eco boost is junk! if not a V8 what the point
That’s the point i don’t need a car to describe me or do anything The Lincoln doesn’t have to try it just is. The Escalade tries to hard the new navigator does it effortlessly. Was that the case last year no but Cadillac has some serious work to do. The inside of the navigator is nicer than a rover now that says something.
Wholesale Septic Supply Lincoln navigation is ok but V6, hell no
Cadillac still remains king of USDM, and no, you can’t change my mind. Ferd is a garbage company.
I wish i had enough money to buy that car
They’re not that much money
A ESV fully loaded is 6 figures that's enough to buy a house!
TJC450 No it’s not an average house cost like $500,000 escalates aren’t that much my dad paid cash for his
Depends on where you live. $500k in Pittsburgh can buy a mansion essentially. But in SoCal it won't get ya much!
I live in Columbus Ohio 500k can barely get u a house in the subberbs let alone 100k
The all new navigator blows this out the water... i look forward to seeing what cadillac comes up with next..
The Escalade is nice but the New 2018 Navigator has really went above and beyond with their new design, I think it will be a head turner.
It's not a car it's a beast
Great thorough review for me.
Being a gm guy, I don’t like that transmission lever
I feel like the escalade is for wealthy people who want a truck but at the same time wants something that can haul family/friends comfortably. I kinda like the column shifter for that reason. On the other hand the people who want pure luxury and tech opt for the range rover.
Looks like I'm staying with the last Gen escalade, this new one is obviously much more superior in many different aspects but just owning the last Gen is cheaper to own than this. This new one has too many parts that are too expensive to replace . I can only imagine how much the headlights cost on this thing ! Geez!
If the Yukon denali and Escalade use same frame engine and have same luxery features why pay more for Cadillac versus denali??
I love the Escalade but you can't call it luxory if it has a column mounted shifter
Looks better than the Lincoln navigator..... Why don't u do night reviews
Dubby Jr - old and outdated looks is better than the Navigator? Lol
DeadofWinter321 Yeah, of course, that’s why it outsells it, and has since its first redesign. And you know what else? It always will outsell it. ESPECIALLY until they take that shitty meth head V6 out of it.
Amy Davis let's wait a few years and see if ur statement is valid and the escalade has not always been selling more. The lincoln navigator started the fullsize luxury suv and it did way better.
TheKillerace900 Did I say always? No, I said "since its first redesign." Learn to read? Also, the Escalade has been doing better since 2001 (2002 Model year), and it's not going to stop. A lot less people are going to choose an unreliable shitty sounding V6 method up, than a proven, amazing sounding, REFINED V8! Just the facts, that's why they've been selling better. Period.
Dubby Jr are u kidding me? Everyone is freaking out about the 18 Navigator. It’s gonna be a hit! Lincoln is back!
rear indicators of turns are only halogens i think
i do like the appearance of the 2018 escalade however, for the price the 2018 lincoln navigator seems to be the better choice.
Hi a couple of questions that you maybe able to answer, 1 Any idea when redesign of this car is? 2 I went through the buildup on Cadillac website and on Platinum version it only offers 2 interior colors, Black and Poo Brown, the color in the car you are showing is much better is this a lower model? 3 You say 10 speed auto transmission however they say 8 speed? Thanks for your help.
Stephen Jones
That's the 2017 model you are talking about which has 8 speed trans and the brown interior
The 2018 model will come with 10 speed trans and different interior colors
"If you're looking for something with a slightly more civilized nature," ahahahaha. What a classic line! By God, yes, I am! I have a 2010 Escalade, who designed this crap, especially the extra interior buttons, someone with OCd? My Lord! Too big a price tag anymore, but Thank you for the excellent review, WHich button should I press next? Hahaha. And BTW, if you buy and let warrentee run out, HA! 500 clams to fix a headlight that only the dealer can fix, and anything else is way out there! My Escalade tire is hard to seal to rim so have to have re-sealed or fill tire up twice a week, a rough ride too compared to my Chevy and my wife's Chevy Tahoe. The Tahoe rides nicer and smooth compared the the escalade, just telling the truth!
Cameron are you do 2019 Cadillac ct6

Beauitiiful ;0 , Maple Sugar/with jet accents interior is nice , truly the option i would get
LOVE IT
They could've definitely updated it a little more...2018 looks like the years before it. Meh...I was looking for a total change in the look
Sasssysoul Sista ‘
Sasssysoul Sista , still in the same Cadillac generation. Modifications will be fabricated with the superseding generation. My person preferred the previous/prior generation, though.
i love it its completly new except for the system but so????
Sasssysoul Sista well they have to save ideas for future escalades (that goes for any car) they can't just go all out.
BMW's etc. look the same inside and outside from the last 40 years.
La que pronto tendré y la que pronto conduciré
Just came from a 2018 lincoln navigator review and it makes this look like people in the ghetto already own it, and i swear all gm cars have that look and feeling, except the gmc denali truck, that shit stays looking fresh to death, idk why...
Gerardo Rodruiguez really!
Gerardo Rodruiguez very ignorant comment
Lincoln has always been behind the 8ball. it looks good on the standpoint they just updated the navigator. smh.
Lincoln Navigator master race
The Cadillac Escalade; A symbol of american excess
Please review a Land Cruiser
Gorgeous,,,
My mom got this truck but different leather
Still rockin' the big stalk transmission shifter for 2018 i see. Really outdated...
And at this price point this shyt should not even be standard
It’s also really their signature look. Get used to it or leave.
Cheap plastic for the buttons and aluminum painted interiour trim, gear selector sounds it is goining to break, the leather around the steering wheel is wrinkled wrapped around it, large panel gaps in the interiour, engine sounds like a diesel and this costs 100.000 dollars????? Buy a Mercedes-Benz, then you buy quality and style.
Video was done very nicely.
Bertin Verhagen Agreed, if your gonna spend 100 grand might as well get a German well built car. This car is worth it if purchased used after a few years where the value is more true.
100,000k luxury vehicle with a column mounted shifter.....
Yes, The Escalade is staying true to what an SUV is, A TRUCK. ( the U stands "utility") GM invented the SUV back in the 1940's with Suburban as a work truck.
Lexus, BMW etc, now even Porsche (an once almost exclusive "sports car" brand) have jumped on the "bandwagon" SUV craze that the Ford Explorer started in the 1990's.There is nothing Utility about those. Most are not even recommended for towing. They are not true SUV's , they are tall cars, now known as "cross overs".
Dragon Ball, I hope that you are a Female, because you don't know shit about cars/ trucks. You may have better insight on Gucci purses or something.
That thing don't fuck around
Column shift and the producer accidentally disabled the interior lamps SMH but the look of the dashboard is awesomesauce all these other vehicles and navigator included has these touch screens that looks like tablets velcroed to the dashboard ewww
Ya Right ... you call this “ Strong Reputation “ all ESCALADE HAS BATTERY PROBLEM , FRONT SHOCKS PROBLEM PLUS TRANSMISSION PROBLEM .
Lincoln Navigator looks a little more modern and luxurious ,interior and exterior than the Escalade and also has more luxuries available for not that much.
Akhil Bolla I agree %100 on that. I wonder how the upcoming redesign of the Escalade will measure up to the new Navigator though.
DJ Wheat car Reviews A tank construction or a military truck platform for the new 5th generation escalade.
Akhil Bolla Not really!
Then buy one this is not for you
I so agree and that column shifter belongs in ...in an old Oldsmobile
My Grandmother Has The Escalade.
Needs more horsepower than the current 420 HP. A V series, 640 HP, Cadillac Escalade ESV would suffice. Satisfied to see a 10 gear transmission upgrade. Henessy could upgrade the aforementioned entity to at least 800 HP, along with front brakes superseding modifications. Toyota's quality/integrity/engineering is superior to any manufacturer. Especially inferior GM products. Came across a 2,000 HP Cadillac Escalade ESV in PA with a dual supercharger system. Best OEM HP and capacity in the industry, though. Seats look thinly cheap. The previous generation looks better than today's.
100 grand? That's it? I'll take 3 of them! lol
muito lindo 🚘😍
Hi :)
So basically for the price of five of these vehicles,I can pretty much by an extremely nice home in most of the U.S.
You can’t buy a nice house for $100,000 wtf are you talking about an average house in the US is like 500,000
Not for 100k

Pull back on that gear selector before selecting drive ... Geez
What does "more civilized" mean? LOL...... I already have a 2017 Corvette Z06.
Why is there a teen driver mode? Who the hell would let a teen drive a $100,000 motor yacht on wheels?
When it's a family car, a teen will drive it. Our teen learned to drive in our Escalade ESV.....it's just a car, albeit a pricey one. I would have loved to have the teen driver mode.
The lincoln navigator is better.
The new navigator is easy better
The youkon Denali 2018 is better and cheaper and their the same thing but diffrent bead
Eh, just like the GM trucks, this looks outdated when compared to vehicles like the Lincoln Navigator. That new Navigator is one beautiful looking SUV. My supervisor at work leased a 2016 Escalade and it’s already been back to the dealership 3 times for transmission work. :/
DeadofWinter321 interesting maybe they got a lemon. I've have 60k miles on my 2015 Escalde and she's running like new.
TommanderR Sales doesn't mean anything. Honda sales a fuck load more then BMW and I think BMW is a better car in all segments except reliability.
+TommanderR
LOL
Hey, "smart" CZcams bum.
Boy,
just because you've run away from this thread for a couple of days doesn't mean that I've forgotten your 'uneducated-ness'.
Boy?
I'm STILL waiting on you to explain the actual meaning of "fatous".
LOL
THEN... spell it right. 😂😕

Tahoe interior looks better
I think the Range Rover is more luxurious.
Lincoln navigator way better than this piece of junk

Would rather buy the new Navigator than this cheap bucket fitted with a shifter from a truck
thatamerican550 You seriously want a trashy V6? Wow...
Why not buy both? 🤗
1) it pollutes 2) it is unreliable 3) too expensive and cumbersome to maintain
Every car pollutes..... Even charging a Tesla... Let alone manufacturing the large batteries! Your comment was irrelevant and lacks any form of credibility what so ever.
All you doing is paying for the name
tracy spencer that's with every vehicle
Wow that interior is a joke!
If I'm going off look alone I'm not impressed. The new Lincoln looks better.
This guy is very boring the Escalade is much more than that
Looks like Tahoe with different head & tailights
Better At-it Because the Escalade is made by GM which they own Cadillac, Chevy, GMC, & Buick. So yes this is based off both the Tahoe & Yukon
