The 2021 Cadillac Escalade is handsome, but surprisingly demure looking compared to its predecessors.
This is a massive vehicle that in the past traded on its almost cartoonishly over-the-top, chromed-out appearance. This time out, though, General Motors has seemingly gone with a more restrained look.
The wow factor, as it turns out, is mostly on the inside and that's just fine.
A 6.2-liter V8 is standard, delivering 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of buttery-smooth torque. Before the year is out, a 3.0-liter inline-six diesel will also be offered.
