  • 2015 Cadillac Escalade, 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show

    Already one of the top choices for luxury SUV buyers who actually use their vehicle for serious work (or serious play), the Cadillac Escalade gets a complete redesign for the 2015 model year, bringing a more powerful and efficient new V-8 engine, a completely revamped exterior, and a more luxurious, spacious interior. Shown today at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, the new Escalade certainly has presence--but will its new looks and proportions win new buyers? Now entering its fourth generation, the Escalade is Cadillac's flagship SUV, and it's clearly aiming to put the rest of the large luxury...
