Cadillac escalade amazing!
I love my escalade and all the features! It drives so smooth and is a very nice looking SUV. I am never going to another brand or type of car again. I love the seating, the sunroof, all the cameras and sensors, and the big screen to manage my music. The seats are amazing too! They have both heating and cooling.

No matter where you go people are sure to look at you and admire.
None whatsoever. The ride is wonderful, trim and interior are top quality and it reflects that. I love the heated seats, steering wheel, and massage features are features are great! Plenty of room for the family and some cargo space in the rear. Would buy again.

Luxury Cadillac Escalade 2015.
I really love my vehicle. This is the second Cadillac Escalade that I have owned. The only issue that I have had with my current one is drive ability seems a little off when taking off after sitting overnight. The dealership is working with my warranty to get it figured out. Other then that I think it is a great truck. 3rd row seats. Plenty of space.

A great American vehicle for its value, design, comfort and daily use.
The car itself is not bad. Low maintenance, good gas consumption, great comfortability, perfect for a family of 5+ to take a trip. Reliable price, maintenance prices are fairly priced. Great car to take on road trips. Very spacious. Intriguing exterior design.

I have added chrome wheels with silver spokes to my Cadillac.
I have always been interested in cars, particularly SUVs as they ride higher on the road. I found my favorite vehicle with the Cadillac escalade. I have upgraded all the trims and semi-wrapped it with my company name. The ride is very smooth, although the gas consumption is fairly high- about 11 miles to the gallon. I have owned it from new and only done around 28k. I need this car for my work as it has a very large space in the back to carry bulky items. The seats fold down to make the size double and everything is electronic, from the seats reclining, windows, headlamps etc. I have added a large subwoofer speaker to complete my ride and I love to just cruise around when I am not using it for work. I keep my car very well maintained and I am proud to drive it. Because of its size, I always feel safe on the road.

One of the best riding suvs I have ever driven .
I have no complaints , it drives very well . Top quality , all the way . I will most likely purchase another one when it is time for a new one .

Everything about my car is amazing but the best part is how smooth it rides.
It performs better than any car I ever had cannot say anything bad but how expensive the parts are to replace. Other than that it is the best car to have and I am pretty sure the up to dates are amazing also. A Cadillac escalade is the best to get and I promise it will be worth the cost.

Cadillac escalade has outdone themselves.
The torque converter had to be replaced along with a leaky rear view mirror. Other than that it is fantastic. The leather and the trim inside are all top quality. The sound system is fantastic. Love the heated and cooled seats and the back up camera.

Negative Owner Reviews

It sides have an amazing smooth ride with lots of power.
The touch screen is starting to go bad. The escalade only has 40,000 miles on it. In a luxury vehicle you expect things to be made last. Not tear up before 50,000 miles. Not the first problem we have had either. The torque converter also had to be replaced.

Bad on gas. And costa lotto fill up.
Like.Size..Dislike the price of gas. Cost too much for gas. Drives great though. Price cost a lot.
accountCircle Blaine L
Size is great. Love it. Definitely worth the money.
It is really nice. Not many repairs. It does everything that we want it to. Not too expensive. Worth the money. I highly recommend. Chevy has always been our favorite car make. The seats are comfortable. The paint job is nice, and the lights work well.

Perks of the 2015 escalade.
My vehicle is one that has proven to be very reliable for me in the short time I had it. But being such a young driver, I am still figuring everything out about my car. For one, my car has never broken down on me and has never been in the shop. Secondly, my car offers comfortability along with such great performance. Overall I wouldn't trade my car for the world.

Safety ratings. Primary car for transportation of 6 week old son.
Like: spacious, gas mileage is ok, leather heated/air conditioned seats, entertainment system, lane change indicators, independent climate control system. Dislike: shifts hard, transmission issue. I have been to several dealerships without it being fixed.
accountCircle Jen L
My car is comfortable and spacious. I am very happy with it.
My vehicle drives. It feels sturdy and makes for a smooth ride. I am never in fear that I will stranded. The car has proven to be quite reliable with very, if any, mechanical issues. All things have been normal maintenance. It is spacious and comfortable for long drives.

The best luxury SUV on the market for grieving families.
The air suspension is expensive to replace. It is terrible on gas in the city. The TV monitors inside do not work. Replacement parts are expensive. The magnetic ride suspension is expensive to maintain. The luxury is amazing. The space is amazing. Great for long trips.

The many gadgets of the Cadillac escalade.
The Cadillac escalade is very comfortable and luxurious. It has excellent features to make your drive more relaxed such as drive assist features like the collision warning, road conditions updates, programmable seat adjustment, and so forth. It has heated and cooled seats in the front and the captains chairs in the second row are heated as well. It comes with ambient lighting so that you can see while driving at night and not needing to turn on the interior light thus disrupting the driver. The car also has cameras on it that help when parking or backing out of spaces so as to keep you from hitting any other objects. If there are any areas of the vehicle that need maintenance there is typically a warning that the car will give you so that you can have it serviced. However a drawback to all the gadgets that this vehicle has is that they can be on the pricey side to repair. Also if you do not get the ESV version of this car, there is really no “trunk” space for cargo unless you fold down the seats in the third row and the third row seat is not entirely comfortable for adults to sit especially if it is a long car ride. The positives far outweigh the negatives when it comes to this vehicle. The gas mileage really is not that bad and I feel it is a really safe vehicle to drive. You really are getting your money’s worth if you were to purchase this vehicle.

I rides like a Cadillac, and has all the luxury you can get in a Truck/SUV. It's perfect for travel very spacious.
I like having a bigger vehicle but still enjoy the luxury. It rides very smooth especially on road trips. And I also love the 5 monitor theater with surround sound. And the ability to use E85 or Premium is very cost efficient. The only real dislike would be some of the interior pieces and moldings has come off or loose quit often.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Brittany D.

Luxury- with all the bells and whistles. 3Rd row, 4 wheel drive, DVD players, leather, sunroof, cruise control, blind spot warning, automatic high beams, secret compartments, cooler in the console, USB charging ports and lane assist.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Brittany D.

The 3rd row is a bit cramped for an adult. Or, someone with long legs. I would like for the lane assist to make a noise not just rumble the driver seat. I would like for the back tailgate to beep when it is opening and closing.
