Under the skin, the 2021 Cadillac Escalade rides on a new architecture, with a longer wheelbase and improved passenger room for second- and third-row seats. There’s also heating and ventilation for front-seated passengers, as well as a massage function.
On the tech front, the 2021 Escalade is equipped with wireless smartphone charging, plus a slew of cutting-edge safety and convenience features. Keeping passengers entertained is a new AKG sound system with up to 36 speakers, while rear-seated passengers will enjoy a duo of 12.6-inch HD touchscreens with support for both HDMI and USB inputs. There’s also a curved organic LED display on the dash measuring in at an impressive 38 inches from side to side, providing readouts for the driver and the infotainment system.
Outside, the 2021 Escalade makes its presence known with revised styling that includes a new fascia and grille treatment, plus LED lighting. The headlamps are thin and horizontally oriented, leading the eye rearwards to tall, upright proportions that demand attention on the road.
