The new Cadillac Escalade is insane

The interior is finally up to Range Rover levels, and features a 38" curved OLCD screen.

Inside, the huge infotainment system, a near replica of the Escala's, is the car's centerpiece. Designers were determined to bring the Escalade's fit and finish in line with its luxury competitors' and started by swathing the interior in real wood trim and leather with intricate quilting and piping. Cadillac says its leather supplier had to invest in new machines to pull off some of the complex designs. There's an available 36-speaker audio system by AKG, and even the smart tailored-­fabric interior from the Escala will make an appearance in the Escalade's upper trim levels. In another nod to luxury, the Caddy's plebeian column-mounted shifter is gone, replaced by a sleek-looking electronic console shifter.

The Escalade will go on sale in late 2020. Trim levels will include Luxury, Premium Luxury, Platinum Luxury, Sport, and Platinum Sport, and the diesel will only be available on the Luxury and Platinum Luxury models.

Cadillac is mum on price but expect the base ask to stay roughly the same as the outgoing model's, so about $77,000. Buyers who choose to outfit their cars with Super Cruise—Cadillac's hands-free driving system—or any of the Escalade's luxury interior fittings will pay a lot more.

There are AKG speakers in the head rests:


And autonomous driving functionality:


Unlike the Range Rover products, the Escalade actually runs and is built in Texas.
