2017 Cadillac Escalade ESV Premium Luxury 6.2 L V8 Review

[@stevet5573]

We just traded our 2007 ESV (200k miles) for a new ESV. 3 kids, 2 dogs - 3 rows plus 4 feet of space and we travel often. It can't be beat and we cannot imagine driving anything less. Lots of haters on here ... but in real life we are complimented almost every time we park somewhere because it is beautiful. I don't understand why it's compared to Japanese and German luxury SUVs ... they are cute, but way too small. Different class of vehicle.

[@MrTblackmon]

The Lexus LX 570 is truly a nice pick comparatively to the Cadillac Escalade. The Lexus LX's interior is impeccable - down to the smallest details like the automatic climate control seats - or the tailored interior. The vehicle is just magnificent.

[@cruze898]

Wait till you drive one. Awesome on the road. Comfort, quiet, & powerful. Keep in mind, This is one of the largest SUV on the road. U can gat the Tahoe size one, which may be a little easier to park/maneuver. The difference is a couple/3 ft grocery room. My boss has one and says on the road, gets in the mid 20's mpg. They all come with cylinder deactivation. It's seamless. U do not feel it. When power is not needed, this V8 shuts down 4 cylinders. Also, if the Escalade is s little out of ur range, ($), l suggest look at the GMC Yukon Denali, or even the Suburban Premier. They both come Hard loaded & are similar to the Escalade. These are not cheap though. Not long ago, could buy a decent home for what these cost. If u have a large family though, there really convenient/nice to have. Trust me, go drive one, u'll want it.

[@coureurdebois]

i always lol when people say this is a rebadged chevy. when it uses its own switch gear, its own suspension, its own interior architecture, its own interior material palate (nappa leather, suede, wood, ect), it has its own unique sound dampening, and to top it off the suburban does not even get the 6.2L V8.

[@yoshiakik.5332]

People who say these things are jealous they can't purchase brand new Cadillacs.

[@BernonCars]

Sure they are... that's just ignorant to say... (I'm not one of those people that say that)

[@yoshiakik.5332]

ThatGearHead Human psychology at it's worst' people could easily say "hey that's just a poor man's Cadillac". But no, they want to say it the other way around. >.>

[@jamelmoore4356]

justin bouche You're right, it's not just an upgraded Tahoe/Suburban. It's more of an upgraded Yukon Denali. With a nice dose of wood, leather, and slightly better noise cancellation. ;)

[@coureurdebois]

Jamel Moore well, it also does not use the same interior architecture, nor does it use the same suspension settings, nor does it use the same exhaust system, nor does it use the same material palate, nor does it share the same luxury tech.

[@kyledafam9602]

Great review!! I'm buying one today. Best review I've seen so far. Thanks

[@yoshiakik.5332]

The Escalade is just over the top Capitalist American and in your face.. If the USA was a car, it'd be the fuckin' Escalade. Also, Cadillac has the best interiors, period.

[@MarioPlaysGames]

Not this one. The best interior is the Lexus LX. Don't you fucking fanboys tell me it's dated.

[@yoshiakik.5332]

Mario Plays Lexus has some nice interiors, tbqh. The exteriors, though, are ugly as fuck.

[@jerryhammond9311]

Mario Plays ITS DATED LOL!😈

[@MarioPlaysGames]

You're dated.

[@jerryhammond9311]

Mario Plays A BAD LX won't cover your seating 3rd row does not fold down put 10000 people in there dated crap!

[@matthewyim1736]

Thank you Cameron for this review! I've been requesting this review!

[@antoinetaylor8516]

Cadillac should put the bose panaray audio system in this and add more speakers!

[@392_RHINO]

that's a beautiful truck

[@jeremyflannigan98]

dude, every single new car on the planet has "power windows and locks" its useless and comical to make the remark as if its a huge plus, inside this 100k escalade.

[@marconepereira932]

Show. show, show!!! Isso é que é um carro de família, não essas carroças que nós temos no Brasil.

[@baldheadlogic]

Hey Cameron. This is Cadillac of GM's big SUVs and it certainly shows why on the inside and outside. This makes the Tahoe interior look really low buck considering that the Tahoe Premier is about 15k less than this one.

[@jwethw1236]

very bold styling

[@iceplanetchris2052]

Jweth W it's a piece of crap, for example look at the ugly side view mirrors

[@iceplanetchris2052]

Jweth W don't even get me started on all of its other flaws and ugly design in general

[@iceplanetchris2052]

Jweth W I do like it for road trips and longer drives though

[@jwethw1236]

The grill is gigantic

[@jwethw1236]

The best headlights I've seen

[@frank1971ification]

iv been wanting one for some time now but the interior is not at the 100k level yet. so im waiting

[@iceplanetchris2052]

Review the Land Rover Range Rover and Range Rover sport please

[@desbrand3585]

iceplanetRC why they are Ford Explorer

[@ericcolvin570]

Des Brand Hell yeah I just noticed that shit today driving to the plug I saw too many of them hoes thought they were rovers but most of em was bs Fords😂

[@justingolden5287]

How do you adjust air suspension?!

[@동욱-g4i]

it is my dream car!

[@TheKillerace900]

can you review the volvo xc90?

[@matthewyim1736]

He did a 2016 XC90 Momentum review last year, so if you want to check it out, go see it.

[@dcrump]

Thank you

[@GRDDAN1]

How much it goes for?

[@LeftyStratPlayer]

Nice vehicle but a usual GM decided to cut corners when the powers that be decided that going with the Jurassic era shift column would be good enough, where this car should have either a high-quality rotary or electronic push button selector. In an SUV at this price point, it this is totally inexcusable as it looks like a poorly executed and compromised afterthought. Also, GM dropped the ball once again by not offering a panoramic sunroof.

[@timthomas1327]

LeftyStratPlayer This is an American truck for fucks sakes. This thing should absolutely have a column shifter.

[@bobbillings]

Because people still like the shifter like me. Everyone cannot always every single wish in the world they want.

[@LeftyStratPlayer]

Well, that's certainly your prerogative. These things can easily spec out north of $100,000. If I was to pay that amount of coin for one, I'm going to get every single thing I wish for and I certainly will not settle for what is essentially the same shift column lifted from a 1970 Chevy C10 pickup.

[@damianpasour]

very luxury

[@stevenbaksh5545]

do they make the Cadillac Escalade ESV in right Hand Drive

[@stefandaniels4320]

Steven Baksh unfortunately not yet :(

[@stevenbaksh5545]

man that sucks because I wanted one because my country is right hand

[@chiefj4149]

Does anyone know about much it cost to fill up the tank for an escalade???

[@goodboysexyboyy7466]

Does it have a 8 seater option

[@matthewyim1736]

Yes, but if you want 9 passengers, you have to move to the base models of the Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban, and the GMC Yukon/Yukon XL.

[@veladislovkotchinky2992]

nice

[@TheKillerace900]

isn't the mercedes gl a competitor?

[@matthewyim1736]

Yes, and for 2017, the GL is now called the GLS.

[@AFouad92]

Yeah but Mercedes doesn't make a long version like Escalade ESV.

[@PHope-sl4nj]

My Grandmother Has The Escalade.

[@loidacastillo3422]

me gusta esa escalade tuta en la florida cómo se Yama el diler en señáme la llave de la escalade prueva todo lo votone de la llave

[@jaytee3469]

A tiny front HALOGEN bulb for a turn signal on a $90000+ vehicle! What a joke! Even the license plate lights aren't LED! 😂

[@Wolfe196]

91k and it has a scuffed side mirror

[@psm1167]

It's time for Cadillac to ditch the column gear shifter.

[@AFouad92]

It's the best

[@south_ga-rblx347]

psm1167 It’s what General Motors is known for. Just because this is 2017 doesn’t mean SUV’s have to have buttons or a wheel or the center console shifter.

[@ARB0204]

But audi virtual cockpit looks and works better than cadillac digital instrument

[@jacobbio2310]

Blinkers in the front made me not like this SUV.

[@IceTeaMan022]

no one has 60k for a suv

[@kdogyt53]

IceTeaMan022 actually, the Escalade ESV (this one) starts at msrp $77,000. And, my family has a regular sized 2017 Escalade which starts msrp $73,000.

[@CaliDreams1]

No the platinum is more like $99K, which is what I put down on my home.

[@Joke9972]

In Holland you can buy it for € 172 500..., taxes will kill you faster than all the CO2 in a small garage.

[@googlewebsite5953]

IceTeaMan022 What about the 120k porche cayan? Didn't spell it right ik

[@jehad0098]

IceTeaMan022 i have 20million dollars

[@Pajtim2023]

sorry bro lubcoln navigator killss this with design screen technology big more beatifull ...watch bavugator 2018

[@south_ga-rblx347]

pajtim pachuku Cleary spelling is not a requirement for you.

[@gamingwithcameron7589]

lol my name is cameron

[@Jordan-nj2ve]

91k for a vacuum cleaner? No thanks. I'll stick with regular brands.

[@Jordan-nj2ve]

I drive a 2015 CR-V Touring and it's paid off. So no smart-ass, I'm not broke; I have no car payment and I'm saving money.

[@kingwithk9156]

97336cf are you triggered bitch face

[@smks8er]

you invested in an asset that depriciates and in 5 years time will be worth less than half what you paid for it. congrats you're an idiot

[@Wolfe196]

vacuum cleaner? it doesnt look like a vaccume at all

[@bintangx2754]

First impression is like looking an FBI, CIA, or could it been Mafia indside the car and driving it, but honestly this cadillac is the coolest thing after the Hummer H2 , Mercedes G Class and Ford Raptor or F150 for large car class, but its not as luxuryous as volvo xc90 excellence or range rover autobiography...

[@jeromegriffin93]

its not the top of the line

[@matthewyim1736]

The Platinum is the top of the line trim, but many people don't choose higher end trims simply because it's too expensive.

[@bigden2755]

This crap made the CR top 10 list for the lowest rated cars in 2017.... right up there with FCA and Mitsubishi...... What do you say to that Justine Ladouche ?????

[@FreeMagneticEnergy2]

😟 Very boring announcer. Sounds like he’d rather be working somewhere else. Quickly reads the labels to us, rather then actually going into detail what they do. Like, Voice Over Recorder? Or the mirror TV deal? 🤔 To go on is a waste of time. The second worst car review I ever sat through. Sadly, I doubt he’ll ever read my comment. Thanks anyway. Now to find a well thought out review of this amazing vehicle.

[@superwangwei3630]

Another garbage from GM. Great review as always.

[@fher101011]

superwangwei3630 Gm Ended A Long Time Ago. Check What You type.

[@adoniselbacano]

I think 90 thousand it's too much for this vehicle,It's a nice vehicle but that's too much money. The 2017 chevrolet tahoe is way cheaper and. Has a lot more features than this one. If i would spent that much money for an SUV I'll just add up a lil more money and go for the Land Rover autobiography.

[@matthewyim1736]

I know, I don't see as much Escalade's compared to a Chevrolet Tahoe or Suburban simply because they don't want to spend the money in the Cadillac.

[@thecoolguy775]

Matthew's Car Corner and they can’t afford it

[@Gitohandro]

interior not as good as the lexus lx? someone throw this looney in jail

[@patrickblasz3898]

"vampire look" to the taillights? Fertile imagination. Inconsistent use of adjectives in this review, very or pretty? The gentlemen needs to think about what he is saying. Talks about the rearview mirror/camera, says he loves it and then says it's pretty useful too. Too much use of "pretty". Words have meaning, use them carefully.

[@CameronsCarReviews]

I apologize for the use of my meaningless words and I will choose more carefully.

[@haddonsmith345]

Remember your paying more for the name... not quality it's a dressed up Tahoe I'm telling you

[@kaiviti2013]

Nobody in their right mind would buy this. Piece of Junk that will spend more time in Auto Garage then in your garage

[@hakeemsd70m]

kaiviti2013 I think you're mistaking this for the Land Rover Range Rover

[@Bobster986]

Sooooooo ugly! LOL

[@matthewyim1736]

Dude, look at it in 1st person, then you'll be impressed.

[@agoraemily]

Aesthetics is obviously a personal thing; however, referring to this butt ugly vehicle as "pretty daring styling" is hyperbole at its best. If you are rich and want a great looking SUV, check out the Bentley Bentayga. Now that's styling!
