  • When we traded our 2009 Hybrid in it had 27,001 miles and it read an average 22 mpg. Resale was best of any luxury SUV I've owned including Cayenne and Audi Q7. Now we'll see how our 2011 Cayenne stacks up against it. So far, 2007 Q7 and 2009 Escalade are the leaders with 2005 SRX close behind.

  • This is HOT!!! Its freakin awesome my friend has one and he gets 23 MPG, which is the same as my friend with a CR-V gets.

  • I knew it!

  • At the Whole Foods I go to everyone in the store and parking lot is a wealthy Republican housewife with a full-size SUV (ex. Mercedes GL, Escalade, QX56, Audi Q7, etc.)

  • Prius are gay

  • @bmw760li150 thats a matter of opinion and no one gives a fuck about yours.

  • aucun intéret a posseder un chariot comme çà, c'est vraiment nul, c'est la que l'on voit la bétise humaine. AH AH

  • I hate Priuses and people who drive them.

  • @kirbyswarp too bad.they dont care about your opinion and neither do i. I love them and i love those who drive it because they are helping/saving the environment..and your sorry ass.

  • 73 mil dolaretes hijos de puta no pidan mucho

  • I LOVE ESCALADE!!!!

  • Isnt the Tahoe that he speaks of, a Chevy, not a GMC?

  • @soobwhale yepp..Cadillac Escalade (EXT,ESV,Hybrid), Chevrolet Tahoe (LS,1LT,2LT,LTZ,Hybrid LT), and the GMC Yukon (Denali,Hybrid,XL)

  • @YunqPriince14 Thats what i thought.

  • I want mine with a V-12!!!!

  • Oooo 21mpg? Still sucks for highway mileage.. Spend less money and get a suburban or a Tahoe. Not to mention you'll look like a douche rolling around in a hyrbrid escalade.

  • @jacoale lol!!

  • @jacoale depends on your view of douche :P. i dont like escalades, but they idea is that small cars get good mpg anyway, its the big cars that need mpg improving. hwy mpg isnt great, but thats gm's fault for not knowing how to build a half decent diesel. the main improvement is the city mpg, which obviously increases you av to around 19/20 mpg which is pretty good.

  • casl

  • my dream car......

  • who ever has money to buy a escalade ,has money to fill it up...

  • @munteanuioan "has to have money" is more appropriate.

  • My Dad's looking around for a new car because we have the 04 escalade and that bitch gets 12 miles to the gallon but its a beautiful car.

  • i really dnt care if its a high breed or not the thing is with a normal escalade ur car is always gunna be thirsty but with a hybrid not soo much im a fast driver so ofcourse i wont make much use of the hybrid part of this car but the gas will even if u push this car hard it will not waste as much i have a mercedez c230 07 sport n i waste 40 bucks a week on gas i kno its alot but i luv my car but this is gud even for the escalade

  • but if u have Escalade u will not care about the gas

  • Why would u want to waste ur money on a escalade when u can get the chevy tahoe for about 30,000 bucks cheaper. Chevy also makes the GMC Yukon hybrid that looks just like that. No one would even want to buy one of thoses with the way the economy is. Just buy a chevy tahoe!

  • @Criticser The escalade has more features, it is part of a luxury brand, and it shows your status, like buying a lexus instead of a toyota

  • way to expensive. but the tahoe is way cheaper and it looks about the same. the escalade is nice and all but to to expensive i reccomend the chevy tahoe.

  • It is about time USA made more hybrid SUV !! But it should their aim by 2015 for the car to do 42 mpg ! NOT 21 mpg !!

  • The escalade looks good and all but it's just alittle to much expinsive, but that's just me!!!

  • dirty engine

  • he has to be the most boring reviewer ive seen

  • i dont get whats hybrid???? whats the diference? can some one explain to me please??

  • @rockawayy Hybrid essentially is combining two forms of propulsion for the sake of better fuel economy, example is gas and electric motors powering one car. 0-30 miles per hour, the electric motor is in use, on the highway, the gasoline engine is in use. Cadillac started out with a feature in their Northstar engines, which on the highway, their V8's would turn off 4 of their cylinders, giving you considerably more fuel economy. Then they implemented hybrid engine setups.

  • wonder how tall the host is?

  • doesn't worth it . if you want to save fuel buy the normal escalade with the 6.2l v8, it would be about the same fuel saving

  • Explain to me how you would save with just as much with the normal escalade. Last time i checked one of them would only get around 14 since normally people drive them in the city. THe hybrid should get like 20 all the time. So please explain how in the world you'd think you can spend just as much on fuel between the normal and the hybrid version.

  • nice car... but buying a Hybird of this is stupid.

  • @jwatwater Why is it stupid, you can drive it without using nearly as much fuel, the only drawback.

  • dannyw900  suv r amazing. no one listens to you hippies

  • Escalades are so nice!!

  • SUV'S should be banned anyway. they are one of the main reasons why America consumes so much oil and produces the most CO2 emissions.

  • gmc tahoe lol

  • all hybrids are crap.

  • @dannyW900 agreed!

  • Your comment is crap.

  • @dannyW900 they really arent but if u want to die from global warming...you go ahead and do that.Hybrids are way better than any gaz guzzeling car or truck..iPLan to get this escalade over the esv.

  • @dannyW900 Someone's jealous.

  • Very well done review.

  • why is he wearing govs

  • What do you think?

    Cadillac is a girl or a boy (in some sense)

    It's just a question

  • BOY definately

  • i think it's a girl:]

  • Listen people, he said it in the video: the mileage is good FOR a 3 tonne truck! The original gets 15mpg, so at 20mpg, it's a 33% improvement. You don't get this if you want "a hybrid," i.e. save gas, you get it if you want an *Escalade* with 20mpg. 1 in 3 Escalades sold now are hybrids.

  • THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.. ;)

  • It's a good start towards a large fuel-efficient vehicle, but Detroit still has to do a LOT better.

  • wt the hell is the point in this car its like sticking a little battery on a flippin tank ad going atleasts it econimical its pointless

  • Even an Audi A6 Allroad would beat this car to oblivion in comparison tests.

  • Nice looking SUV. Now if Lincoln would just make the Navigator look so nice.

  • the presenter is terrible

  • The new one looks kinda ugly

  • This is kinda like Top Gear except its more boring.

  • why is it that american car manufacturers refuse to make diesel suvs as an option? arent diesel engines generally more efficient and better suited for cars like the escalade?

  • @AgentOrange04 I agree with you very much, diesel SUVs are very beneficial. Take a look at the Audi Q7 TDI. 18 in the city, and 26 on the highway, for an SUV of that size, unheard of. The normal petrol engine gets 14 city and 20 highway. On a tank of diesel it can get around 700 miles if you're conservative. You're essentially doubling your mileage. BMW and Mercedes did diesel versions of their X5, and the ML, as well as the GL. I wish there was more of an option with GM and others.

  • @AgentOrange04

    I know. Small diesel SUV's are very popular in Europe. The problem is that so many American still consider diesels to be noisy and smelly. That is not the case with new diesel engines.

  • @AgentOrange04 My theory (more of a conspiracy theory) is that the oil companys makes the car manufactures to build cars with big engines so that people have to stop for gas more often... or maybe its the american way: big cars, big engines, no economic aspect what so ever =D

  • @Projective No back in the 60s and 70s gas was so cheap that people had the big trucks or Cadis that had huge V8s and they would stop and get gas alot cheaper

    Its just now, since gas is getting higher priced, this companies are starting to make smaller engines that pump out more horsepower. We are just starting to learn, but hopefully we change

  • @mirlin235 Yes ofc, i knew that, muscle car era.. but what i mean is that its ridiculous to have a 6.2 L engine, im sure a 3 L turbo diesel would give the same amout of torque, but then they have to make the escalade (and its sister models, tahoe, yukon etc) lighter

  • @Projective They also had a diesel verison of this I believe in the 90s but they cut it out

    I may be totally wrong, but they had a 6.2 and a 6.5L turbo diesel in the Yukon and for the Chevy, and it was getting about 21-26 so it doesn't really matter

  • @AgentOrange04 you're right ! I

  • @AgentOrange04 sadly it seems like there is a stigma that goes along with diesel in the States. It seems most of us can't move past the smelly, black smoke rolling car of the past.

  • @AgentOrange04 diesel SUV would suck really bad why the heck would you say that

  • @AgentOrange04  so true

  • @AgentOrange04 Diesel stinks and sounds awful, that's why they're not commonly used over here. We only put them in our pickup trucks for extra hauling/towing ability.

  • The Cadillac Escalade has won the most Luxurious SUV award in the world 3 years running. Hows that Ford for being bankrupt?

  • this is gay has 2 much

    hybrid logo

  • Can someone please tell me why American cars are so ugly?

  • I never understood it when these review videos talk about the "noise" inside the cabin. Who cares? I'm usually blasting my music... so I don't hear a damn thing.

  • With General Motors products they have sound coverage, the louder your engine is the speakers will match it to keep the engine noise covered. Made by GM, Surprised?

  • Well, smart people then.

  • I'm not surprised... read about this tech for the new equinox. very genius. GM should advertise the hell out of this new tech

  • It's one of the best SUV's for the money, if you consider all of the luxury and the options. 'Round here, 08's are at 40,000 for sale. Good deal, I'll say.

  • im gonna buy it in white

  • Me too, but when I grow up, I figured it will make a nice family car when I get a family . Dont you think.

  • I'm sorry, but I can't see myself buying a shiny tahoe. Of course this car looks cool, but I couldn't see myself owning one.

  • i didnt watch the vid bc i kno its gona b good bc i luv escalades lol

  • Dude I am on your side I love the 2009 Cadilac Escalade. For me I think its a perfect car it looks great and I like the transmiter. The cockpit looks great (by cockpit I mean the inside of the car, no offends but thats the way I call the inside of a car,or basicly saying the driver seat thats in the front which every control of the car is)

  • I love Cadillac except this suv. It's a simply re badged GMC Yukon, and a Chevy Tahoe. I also think it's time for Cadillac to refresh the interior dash

  • No shit... it's called badge engineering

  • Oh aren't you a big boy. Obviously it is, I was just stating my opinion, "no shit" dumbass.

  • Just putting your comment about the interior would've saved all of this. GM rebadges everything to try and make more money (which it looks like you know so much about). No need to be butthurt.

  • this thing is soooo not worth it its so expensive and gets like 2 extra miles to the gallon

  • best car in the whole world

  • A Ghetto Hydrid. LOL, What will GM come up with next???

  • Ha ha ha. Nice try Cadillac.

    But no one will buy a hybrid SUV like that when a Land Crusier or LX570 is cheaper and has off-road tricks.

    LAND CRUISER AND LX570 FOR LIFE

  • Toyotaminivans

    There is no comparison between the proud of the Earth (Land Cruiser) and GM garbage

    I subscribed to your channel I hope you view my channel vedios (look for the cars vedios and ignore the others)

  • To Toyotaminivans: Typical asshole! you actually think that Americans are gonna stop buying cars cuz you think Toyota are so great? First of all jackass,nobody cars about what you have to say. And second, alot of Toyota vehicles are built in American (Camry,Tundra,Avalon), so technically,they are American made.But I guess comments like yours are expected from a runny nosed punk like you! You know nothing.Try doing research before talking shit! And there's more Escalades than LX570s on the road!

  • BEST SUV IN THE WORLD

  • lol even the hybrid badges scream "attention whore"

  • Another reason why you don't see these "beasts" is because of higher taxes and especially because of much higher gasprices.

  • Comment removed

  • gotta agree with barnee here, american cars in europe have been always a symbol of prestige and being different, the reason why you don't see too many american cars on german roads (i'm german) is, that domestic dealers have a thumb on politics, which put burdens on american car imports here.

  • Damn, it's huge :o

  • Nobyody in europe buys american cars for several reasons. Its too big for the roads. Its mpg at 21 is still to small. Its interior is usually lower quality and has pooorer ride comfort and worse suspension the a land rover or an audi q7 or even a vw tuareg. But i suppose the manin reason we dont buy hybrids is beacuse if we want a car with high mpg we just buy a diesel and get on with it. Plus road going monsters arent that popular in ireland because we only have small roads

  • this car is for boss.. rapper and other you choise bmw mercedes for design of bussines

  • Hello!

  • hgyu

  • nice

  • at 2:25

    What is the "thing" which it is next to the wheel?

    in Europe is for Wiper

  • I think you are talking about the lever on the right side?  If so, it is a steering column mounted gear selector. Notice there is no consul mounted gear selector at 2:29. In this case though, because it is a variable transmission, I shouldn't call it a gear selector.

  • lolo

  • Many people in Eastern Europe like amerikan cars! And it much cooler if you got american car there!

  • LMAO at Fremont696!!! I hope you're just messing around or maybe you've been living under a rock?..

  • best car from cadillac

  • LOL 20 MPG's. They shouldn't have even bothered with a hybrid.

  • ..................

  • Let me get this straight. They have turned a not at all fuel efficient car into a not fuel efficient car by adding a electric motor.. Well done*cough*

  • Yes. And done so for a market that doesn't give a shit about its carbon footprint to begin with, hence the driving of an Escalade.

    I don't think anyone's going to argue with you that it's a baffling move.

  • whats a hybrid?

  • I LOVE ESCALADE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • if only american auto makers made engines with high compression reducing this way the capacity to 1.5L or 2L for cars, that would greatly decrease fuel usage

  • what a horrendous car

    Only in America

  • you are dumb this vheical is loved all over the world

  • such as?

  • japan...all of asia maby.....dubi...abudubi.....so­uth america.... canada....some europen countrys..............more

  • The only countries outside of North America that like American cars are arab countries, that's it. And I'm very sure asians hate these ugly cars cuz I'm one of them. European countries ABSOLUTELY hate this peace of shit. I'd be surprised if you could find one of these sorry ass cars in Europe.

    These cars are made for black people in America and America junior.

  • White guy on this Scalade? Awesome

  • I agree, in Europe its mercedez, bmw and audi all the way. Nobody wants an american car like this.

  • Thats not true. In Europe, american cars were the symbol of wealth for many, and for many they are still superior thanks to their more agressive styling. Since we can afford it, we only buy american cars. I love Jeeps, Cadillacs, Lincolns!

  • tiny asians like tiny cars, cuz they don't need alot of room to fit their tiny penis

  • lmao

    you're a dumb fuck. Not all Asians are Chinese people. fucking negro.

  • chinese, japanese, cambodian, thai, viet, korean, taiwanese, indian, pakistani.... you all still have small penis. I said asians. nowhere did I say specifically chinese. learn how to read english chinaman. confucious say... suck my big black cock.

  • and yet I'm none of those HAHAHAHHAHA fucking idiot

  • pakistan isn't in asia its in the middle east.

  • the middle east isn't a continent

  • ha yes my mistake

  • United States isn't in America its in North America

  • what? thats like saying the uk isn't in europe its in eastern europe ?

  • north america IS a continent

  • and in wich continent you think the middle east is??? duuuuh dumbass

  • Asia.

  • no need to be racist......

  • hahaahhaa thats funny due hahahahaha

  • that is some funny shit i would put it up on my facebook but i wouldent want to look racist but wow good joke

  • Comment removed

  • Lexus RX is the ugliest SUV on the market!!!

  • The Lexus RX 450h is the best hybrid SUV.

    btw. hybrid Escalade sounds like a paradoxon.

  • It's not a car!!! stop calling trucks and SUV's cars!!

  • I highly doubt this will be a success :-s

  • omg 21mpg LOL

    mine gets 60. Even though it's not a 3tone SUV, how many people actually need that size for daily usage?

    you can't turn a gaz guzzler into something else, it will always be one

  • Well some people like it.

  • es unacamioneta sensasional

  • Even though I'm a tree-hugger, I became love-struck by this thing when I sat in it at a dealership. It's intoxicating.

  • LOKUMUMmM

  • Compared to the guy and the car, the car is taller than the guy.Hmm...How tall the car is?

  • i like it

  • Oh my god ... that thing is unbelievably huuge.

  • "That's what she said" - Michael Scott

  • do you not live in America?! its like you've never seen an SUV before. The Escalade is kind of small compared to the ESV, Suburban, Sequoia, and Denali XL.

  • LAME!

  • ffhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • my uncle has a cadillac escalade like this....its a great car with great luxary .....and good for having sex on it....xDDD

  • They should rename it to escavan instead of escalade because its freaking huge..

  • Hybrid Escalade, Not a good idea !

  • Cadillac Escalade...the SUV of choice for every goddamn Italian on Long Island.

  • you are dreaming if you think this will save our planet OR save you money - LOL

  • i love it

  • why the a mericans love the huge cars (nearly trucks) ??

  • Looks like the Obama Mobile. Except $325,000 cheaper.
