2011 Cadillac ESCALADE

At Cadillac, we design and engineer our vehicles to one standard and one standard only: excellence. Case in point: the Escalade family of full-size luxury SUVs. Few vehicles of any type generate such powerful feelings of desire. Escalade stands for A-list style. Thrilling yet effortless performance. Advanced luxury. Technology that’s on the leading edge of the industry. And for those of you who expect and demand the best of the best, Cadillac is taking the Escalade concept to new heights in 2011 with Escalade Hybrid Platinum Edition. With the fuel efficiency of a high-tech Two-Mode Hybrid drive system combined with the most luxurious, most comprehensively equipped cabin ever found in an Escalade, it redefines what a luxury SUV can be. Escalade for 2011. You never settle. Neither do we.
Why is it that whenever you see celebrities, spotlights and red carpets, there’s so often an Escalade in the shot? The answers are many, but style definitely tops the list. With its powerful lines and confident stance, your Escalade will turn heads wherever you go. Artfully framed by jewel-like Xenon headlights, the signature Cadillac grille goes beyond bold all the way to audacious. A steeply raked windshield signals impressive performance capability. Layer upon layer of chrome gleams from roof to road, including available 22-inch chromed aluminum wheels. Escalade looks stunning in closeup, too, with precision-fitted body panels that demonstrate exquisite quality, improve aerodynamics and reduce wind noise in the cabin.

The largest and most spacious vehicle in the Cadillac portfolio, Escalade ESV combines a compelling presence with outstanding passenger room and the most cargo capacity in the luxury SUV class.* Escalade ESV rides on a wheelbase that’s 356 mm longer than Escalade. The result is a vehicle that seats up to eight people and still has space behind the third-row seat to accommodate up to 1297 litres of luggage, shopping bags, golf clubs or whatever you wish. Escalade ESV passengers ride in luxurious comfort, too. There’s genuine stretch-out legroom for the occupants of both rear seating rows, and the extended wheelbase and advanced suspension geometry work together to produce a ride that’s nothing less than sublime.

Best of all, the transformation from one mode to another takes place in seconds and no tools are required. Put it all together and you have a vehicle that combines luxury and capability unlike anything else

On entering Escalade’s supremely comfortable driver’s seat, your first impression is one of sophisticated forms highlighted by clever accents. In short, high style. Allow us to point out, though, that this environment is also extremely functional. Those stylish, chrome-trimmed analogue gauges, for instance, are continuously backlit by white LEDs to help you read them in an instant, even in varying light conditions. For another example, consider Escalade’s beautiful leather-wrapped steering wheel with genuine wood accents. It includes a power tilt adjustment with memory, to help you find and store precisely the right driving position, along with switches that allow you to control a range of secondary functions without ever taking your eyes off the road. For an even higher level of comfort on cold winter mornings, a heated steering wheel is also available.

When you drive an Escalade, the thoughtful design of the highly reconfigurable interior makes it easy to accomplish tasks that might otherwise be difficult, or even impossible, in other vehicles. Escalade and Escalade ESV’s standard 50/50 divided three-passenger third-row seat f lips and folds forward when you require more cargo space and can be removed entirely when necessary. The second-row seats also f lip and fold with the touch of a single lever to make room for bulky items. For even more convenience, there’s an available power release fold-and-tumble system. It allows you to fold the second-row seats forward at the touch of a button without ever leaving the comfort of your Escalade’s driver’s seat.

Extensive sound-deadening measures virtually eliminate road and wind noise in the Escalade cabin. As a result, Escalade is both the perfect place to escape the uproar of the outside world and the ideal listening environment for your favourite music. To exploit this opportunity to the fullest, every Escalade features a 6-disc CD player complemented by the stunning ten-speaker Bose 5.1 Cabin Surround sound system. It provides six distinct channels of concert-quality sound, and the system also includes Bose’s remarkable AudioPilot® noise compensation technology. Should you so desire, you can supplement this system with an available DVD entertainment system that’s just the thing for keeping rear passengers content on long journeys. And while the exceptional sound quality of your Escalade’s audio system may make it easy for you to get lost in the music, its standard voice-activated DVD Navigation System will always be there to help you find your way to your destination.

Smooth, quiet and highly refined, Escalade’s aluminum-block Vortec 6.2L V8 VVT engine is a true luxury-class powerplant. It also generates the most power of any vehicle in Escalade’s class* – a tremendous 403 horsepower. It puts out vast amounts of torque, too – 417 pounds-feet of it, to be exact, enough to tow trailers weighing up to a very substantial 3674 kg (8100 lb.). Yet, thanks to premium features like race-inspired high-flow aluminum cylinder heads, Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and new-for-2011 Active Fuel Management, Escalade delivers excellent fuel efficiency for its class of vehicle, and it does so on regular gasoline. The Escalade V8 is also a FlexFuel engine capable of running on E85 ethanol – an important consideration with today’s rising fuel prices

In every setting, the 2011 Escalade turns heads and draws admiring glances. A rolling showcase of Cadillac’s highly evolved design philosophy; this vehicle raises the styling bar for every other crossover in the world. With its broad front and rear tracks, long wheelbase, short overhangs and sculpted alloy wheels, the new Escalade’s stance and silhouette are fresh and contemporary. Its bold lines, crisp intersections and clean, pure surfaces point to the future of the industry. There are even a few details – the tail lights, say – that subtly echo and update iconic Cadillac design concepts. Bottom line: you won’t be able to take your eyes off it.
