PICS! New Cadillac Escalade for 2015

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

And keep in mind, this vehicle is for black people and the BUY AMERICAN crowd.

I hope that Caddy comes with a power watermelon slicer because we all know Blacks wouldn't be caught dead in a full size Mercedes SUV or Range Rover............

Hey Vinsanity,

HOLY FWD OVERHANG, BATMAN! 





This actually looks very good inside and out. Will there also be a diesel version available or just the regular choices of a gas-guzzling V8 and a gas-guzzling hybrid?

[Vinsanity]

getting real tired of your shit Wimmer

I think the OnStar button calls KFC.

You're not funny.

Well, you win some you lose some.

Edgy humor fail.

I laffed

[veeman]

You forgot upscale blonde suburban housewives....they're quite popular with that crowd.

definitely true.  i see a lot of these. 

i'd take it over most of the competitors in this price range that have 3 rows.  over the audi q7, lexus land cruiser equivalent, infiniti q56, and lincoln navigator.  i'd take the merc g class over the cadillac.  the lexus land cruiser equivalent is probably engineering wise a much better suv but it's very old in the tooth and no one takes these cars offroading outside of the middle east.

Im not feeling this. I like the Range.

I wish there were more SUVs... honestly like the X6. These boxy things are boring as fuck and most folks buying these things don't need all the cargo room or passenger van seating capacity. Would be nice to see some alternatives, since SUVs are ubiquitous anyway.

- the X6 looks horrible

- they've only sold like two units

- ZDX was similar in concept, and it got slammed

Should have said Popeye's.

I agree; the X6 is one of the most hideous cars on the road and the ZDX is right up there with it.

They sell the SRX! And if you need something a lil larger the other divisions have plenty of alternatives.

I doubt it! Like you said it's long in the tooth and this SUV (GMC and Chevy) should be better in damn near every way.

Meh. These look boring, and they are selling enough X6s to make an X4. ZDX was slammed because it was ugly. I get that there is a market for these trucks, but with SUVs' ubiquity I think there is room for interesting looking luxury SUVs too.

What the new Escalade needs is a coupe version. Not every rapper travels with his homies, dawg! 

So here's my vision of what an Escalade coupe could look like. Are you reading this, GM? And while you're at it, throw in a massive gas-guzzling V16 engine because a 6.0-L V8 is just lethargic and embarrassing. 

[cawimmer430]

And here's a choice of new colors! 

[TBR]

Chevrolet tried the personal SUV back in the '90s..didn't do well:

[veeman]

Isn't the whole point of a coupe to lower the roofline and be able to create more of a fast back rear.  Makes the car look faster and more curvaceous.  Doesn't do anything for an SUV.

Wait, you're complaining that there aren't enough round-ish looking SUVs out there today? 

[cawimmer430]

Wow, I never even knew that thing existed! 

[68_427]

There were lots of two door SUVs in the late 80's-mid 90's.

With the exception of the Suburban and a couple Jeeps they all were until the Explorer came out.......

The Explorer was late to the party. By the time it came out in 1990 all of its competitors offered four doors.

[Galaxy]

Wow, I never even knew that thing existed! 

Neither did I. Of all the vehicles to be turned into two doors, full size SUVs would be at the bottom of my list. It just seems like an oxymoron.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

You're rite but I was commenting on SUVs that were out before the Explorer debut. The S10 Blazer didn't get 4 doors till '91, The Pathfinder got 4 doors in '90 and The 4Runner got four doors in '89.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

Wow, I never even knew that thing existed! 

It debut as a Blazer but GM changed the name to Tahoe in the late 90s........

[Catman]

The 2-door Explorer was awful.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

The 2-door Explorer was awful.

And they had the nerve to sell a Mazda version..........
