Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2021 Escalade has undergone a thorough redesign, complete with a new independent rear suspension, savvier interior technology, prettier styling, and a new optional diesel-powered engine.To truly deck out the Escalade in its best features, go for the Platinum trim. It adds semi-aniline leather, 16-way power-adjustable front seats with massage, soft-close doors, and an AKG audio system with 36 speakers. The Platinum version also comes standard with a self-parking feature, a head-up display, and adaptive cruise control. We'll know more about pricing and optional features closer to the 2021 Escalade's on-sale date, which is expected to be this summer.

The 2021 Cadillac Escalade is much more than a Chevrolet Tahoe in a tuxedo.

Pros
Gorgeous interior
Super Cruise
Independent suspension
Lots of torque regardless of engine
An adult-sized third row

Cons
Gets expensive
It’s massive
The rear end barely changed
Where’s the hybrid?

By:

Fully redesigned for 2021.More interior space, especially for rear passengers.The latest driver aids, including Cadillac's Super Cruise.Part of the fifth Escalade generation introduced for 2021.

Pros
An extensive suite of standard and optional driver aids
Optional diesel engine a class-exclusive
Significantly more interior space than outgoing model
New interior design one of the best in the class

Cons
Lacks off-road prowess of some rivals
Large footprint makes it difficult to park

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Tremendously powerful six-cylinder engine
Grip and handling are excellent
Sleeker styling than the related X3 M

Cons
Excessively stiff ride
Rear headroom is a bit tight
Sloping roofline compromises cargo space and visibility

By:

Like the regular X4, the high-performance X4 M receives some subtle styling upgrades for 2022. Larger grille openings, narrower headlamps, and reworked front and rear bumpers distinguish the refreshed X4 M from last year's model. The infotainment display has grown from 10.3 to 12.3 inches. More meaningful to us driving enthusiasts is a rework of the SUV's engine to produce more torque; horsepower remains the same across both X4 M models.

Pros
Rip-snorting engine,
bonkers acceleration,
handling agile enough to trick you into thinking it's a sports car.

Cons
Hard-edged ride,
lacks the practicality of the mechanically-similar X3 M,
coupe-like styling may not be for everyone.
