The 2011 Cadillac Escalade is largely unchanged. This premium-large SUV is basically an upscale version of the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Like its Chevrolet and GMC cousins, this Cadillac comes as a conventional model as well as a gas/electric hybrid. It’s available as a wagon with a standard wheelbase or the long-wheelbase ESV. The Escalade EXT is a crew-cab pickup truck that’s similar in design to the Chevrolet Avalanche.
EXTs have a folding “midgate” separating the cab from the cargo bed. All non-hybrid Escalades come come in Base, Luxury, and Premium trim levels. Conventional standard-wheelbase wagons, hybrids, and ESVs also come as the top-end Platinum trim. Standard-length and ESV wagons seat 7 in a 2-2-3 layout, or they seat 8 with an optional 3-person 2nd-row bench seat. Wagons are available with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. EXTs are AWD only. All non-hybrid models have a 403-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine and a 6-speed automatic transmission. This engine can run on gasoline or E85 ethanol-blended fuel and comes with GM’s Active Fuel Management cylinder deactivation. Maximum towing capacity is 8,300 pounds.
