: Good vehicle. Decent, but not quite the best. Often affordable, but lacking key features found in vehicles of the same class.

: Below average vehicle. Not recommended, and lacking attributes a car buyer would come to expect for the price.

Overview

Just in case the standard Escalade doesn't quite measure up to your lifestyle, Cadillac offers the Escalade ESV. At 20 inches longer than the regular Escalade, the ESV is an enormous SUV, carrying on the tradition of Cadillac dreamboats from bygone eras. Like its tail-finned ancestors of the 1950s and 1960s, the ESV does nothing if not make a statement. Except for dimensions, the regular Escalade and the ESV don’t differ by much.

What's New for 2017

Two new technology options are available for the 2017 model year. The rear camera mirror promises a field of vision that's four times greater than what you see with a regular rearview mirror. It also removes obstructions from your view, including passenger heads and the rear pillars. Optional Automatic Packing Assist uses ultrasonic sensors to locate a suitable parking spot, and then maneuvers the SUV into either a parallel and perpendicular space. Aluminum 22-inch wheels have a new design. Trim levels have been renamed Escalade, Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Platinum.

Choosing Your Cadillac Escalade ESV

The ESV's extra length allows for a lounge-like interior with stretch-out space for eight adults. Cargo room is generous even with a full crew aboard, and grows to nearly 121 cubic feet with the middle and back rows folded. Only a van can hold more. With all seatbacks up, cargo volume behind the back row is 39.3 cubic feet; with the third row folded, it totals 76.7 cubic feet.

The ESV's 6.2-liter V8 engine generates 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, An eight-speed automatic transmission and rear-drive are standard, but most buyers choose the four-wheel drive setup. The Magnetic Ride Control system features Sport and Comfort modes. EPA-estimated fuel economy is identical to the regular Escalade: 15/22 mpg (city/highway) with rear-drive, or 15/20 mpg with four-wheel drive.

The voluminous standard equipment list leaves no doubt about the Escalade's luxury mission, whether in regular or ESV size. At the touch of a button, the third row folds completely into the floor. The CUE infotainment system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The eight-inch center screen uses capacitive touch operation and gesture recognition.

Trim levels differ mainly in safety technology:

Cadillac Escalade ESV

Base

Except for a sunroof, the standard Escalade ESV lacks virtually nothing in the realms of luxury and convenience. Each Escalade ESV includes navigation, chrome wheels, full LED lighting, heated and ventilated front seats, heated second-row seats, a power-folding third row, a 12.3-inch instrument cluster, keyless entry, pushbutton start, tri-zone climate control, a Bose Centerpoint 16-speaker surround-sound system, a surround-view camera system, and parking sensors.

Luxury

Stepping up a notch beyond standard trim adds quite a selection of safety features, including an upgraded anti-theft system, automatic high beams, lane keeping assist, lane, blind spot monitoring, and collision alert. The driver seat vibrates to alert you to potential hazards. Also included are a sunroof and a power-folding second row.

Cadillac Escalade ESV

Premium Luxury

Adds even more safety items, including adaptive cruise control, cornering lamps, and front/rear collision mitigation with automatic braking. A rear entertainment system with dual screens also is standard.

Cadillac Escalade ESV

Platinum

At the apex of the Escalade line, the Platinum features unique 22-inch wheels, an extended Nappa leather interior with semi-aniline seating surfaces, genuine wood trim, and four screens for the rear entertainment system. The center console holds a refrigerated compartment.

CarsDirect Tip

Clearly, not so many buyers need the kind of space that an Escalade ESV provides, even if its luxuries and sizable accommodations are enticing. Few will feel deprived in the least by selecting the standard model. Whether to upgrade depends mainly on your comfort level with piloting a vehicle of this size. The additional safety features are undeniably reassuring, especially when dealing with urban traffic.
