'15 Cadillac Escalade

Cadillac flagship? We've got your flagship right here.

Quote :

When the Cadillac product team describes it as “the Escalade of Escalades,” you can surmise that this 2015 model-year redesign was not a rethinking of the brand’s three-row, body-on-frame SUV. The Escalade remains the Cadillac of GM’s new full-size truck platform, GMT K2, related to Chevrolet’s Tahoe and Suburban and the GMC Yukon brothers big and bigger. As before, there are actually twin Escalades, the 116-inch-wheelbase model and the Suburban-sized Escalade ESV, which gets a 14-inch stretch. Cadillac isn’t saying much about the third member of the family that disappeared after the 2013 model year, the flamboyant Escalade EXT pickup. Perhaps it ran off to Hollywood.

The remaining members of the family seem headed in the opposite direction, with sharper and more conservative styling to better blend in around upscale communities. The Escalade now seems apiece with the full-size XTS and the brand’s other sedans, mature in their decade-long evolution of Cadillac’s Art and Science design language. From a distance, the high beltline, rectilinear greenhouse, and forward-canted C-pillar manifest the look of a vintage Fleetwood station wagon. Of course such a thing never actually existed, at least not officially, and anyway, the illusion breaks once you get close enough to recognize the Escalade’s larger-than-life size.

LOL, you stole my line

I think it's ugly, I really don't like those brake lights all the way up the rear of it, and the front lights are ugly too

that said, I am sure it's comfortable and rides nice

it just looks like they are trying to hard with the exterior
