The fifth generation of the Escalade presents enormous dimensions in a combination of technology and luxury that constitute new records for the brand and in general.
In terms of dimensions, it is in a category of its own, with the short version marketed here stretching to 538 cm in length, with a wheelbase of 307 cm and a height of no less than 206 cm.
It is therefore understandable that the seven seats offer a lot of space.
It comes to Israel in a configuration that includes two separate captain's seats in the second row and a bench for three in the back.
There are also two versions with price differences of NIS 10,000 that differ in black finish for different body parts in the sport version.
To indicate the richness offered here, we can mention the 38-inch OLED screen divided into three dimensions.
You can also find here a night vision system, augmented reality navigation, 36 speakers of the sound giant AKG, massage in the seats, two huge 12.6" screens in the second row of seats, internal microphones that amplify the voices of the driver and passenger in front and are heard in the second and third rows, a cooled compartment inside the console up to To minus 5 degrees, an electronic climate control system with zone control for the driver and passenger and rear seats (3 zones) including ventilation outlets for the second and third rows, original electric removable side steps, a silent slam for all four vehicle doors and this is a fairly partial list.
The Escalade is equipped with a 6.2 L V8 engine that produces 420 hp and 63 kgm and is paired with a new 10-speed automatic transmission that transfers the power to the four wheels.
Although it is a fairly heavy vehicle, the acceleration to 100 km/h takes 6.5 years.
The other side of the coin includes fuel consumption accordingly.
We should also note that the new Escalade comes here with air suspensions that adjust themselves to the road conditions and can raise and lower the chassis over a range of 10 cm.
The safety equipment list is also significant and includes an independent braking system even in reverse, lane departure prevention, adaptive cruise control, GPS-based traffic sign recognition, automatic control of high beams, blind spot warning, perimeter parking camera, parking option and more.
In the US, the Escalade also includes a broad autonomous capability when it relies on smart maps that GM produces along the length and breadth of the continent.
When this smart mapping comes here as well, we too will be able to enjoy this ability.
