Escalade Hybrid is the only hybrid-powered full-size luxury SUV you can buy. It’s also, not coincidentally, the most fuel-efficient full-size luxury SUV you can buy, and by a huge margin. Escalade Hybrid consumes just 10.4 L of regular gas per 100 km of city driving, and needs only 8.5 L/100 km on the highway. By comparison, the 2011 Mercedes GL550 burns 17.1 L of premium fuel per 100 km in the city and 11.9 L/100 km on the highway.** In fact, Escalade Hybrid uses less gas in city driving than such V6-powered sedans as the Ford Fusion and Toyota Camry.**
For performance, luxury, technology and eye-catching style, nothing comes close to Escalade. What else can accommodate up to 8 people in complete comfort, tow trailers weighing as much as 3,674 kg (8,100 lb), take the worst driving conditions in its stride - and look this great the whole time? For an even more extraordinary experience, treat yourself to the available Ultra Luxury Collection Package. A Magnetic Ride Control® suspension, a power sunroof, glittering 22-inch wheels and an array of other premium features are all included.
Escalade ESV takes the essential Escalade concept and adds more. As in more overall length, by a little over half a metre. More wheelbase, which translates into an even more comfortable ride. More 2nd- and 3rd-row leg room. And more space for cargo, so you can transport up to 3,891 L of gear with the 2nd-row seats folded and the 3rd-row seat removed. It all adds up to a remarkable blend of style, luxury and utility.
For those who enjoy living both actively and well, Escalade EXT is in a category of one. From the 2nd seating row forward, Escalade EXT is everything you expect Escalade to be: beautiful, powerful, capable and luxurious. But from that 2nd row back, Escalade EXT is nothing less than revolutionary. Just fold the rear seat and the innovative Midgate® out of the way and EXT transforms from a class-leading 5-passenger SUV to a luxury pickup with a flat, damage-resistant cargo floor measuring almost 2.5 metres in length. It's a kind of versatility that no other luxury SUV can even approach.
Created for those who demand the very best, the Escalade Platinum Edition Preferred Equipment Group takes the luxury SUV concept to previously unexplored heights. Available in Escalade, Escalade Hybrid and Escalade ESV form, Platinum Edition models feature a unique grille and front fascia treatment, 22-inch chrome wheels and spectacular LED headlights that add exclusivity to Escalade's already-dramatic styling. The standard Magnetic Ride Control® suspension adjusts shock absorber damping up to 1,000 times every second, for a superbly controlled ride and amazingly agile handling. And of course, on the inside, Escalade Platinum is equipped for complete luxury. The standard features include internally heated and cooled front bucket seats, a heated steering wheel, a rear DVD entertainment system with dual screens mounted in the head restraints and much more.
