Shop for a new Cadillac Escalade on CarGurus: https://cargur.us/1pCMM_ Listen to the Driveway, a podcast available on all platforms: https://cargur.us/1d5zzf The Cadillac Escalade remains the brand’s most unmistakable model, and after five generations, it still knows how to make an entrance. For 2026, the Escalade carries forward the major updates introduced with last year’s refresh, including sharper front-end styling, available 24-inch wheels, a dramatically upgraded screen layout, and an even more comfort-focused cabin. We’re driving the 2026 Cadillac Escalade Platinum Sport, a version that sits well into six-figure territory and aims to deliver the kind of presence, technology, and luxury buyers expect at this price. The question is whether the Escalade still feels special enough to justify that money, especially in a luxury SUV segment where the competition keeps getting more advanced, more refined, and more expensive.

Maybe they should focus on making a quality powertrain instead of rolling computers that nobody can afford
No mention of the known engine failure problems and recalls that have yet to be solved? Was this an honest review or an fluff piece and advertisement????? You can't do an honest and fair review and not touch on the obvious.
Great review.
can we talk about how they are locking up under 20K miles.... I love CarGurus, but be honest about the reliability
14:37 the point is that the front passenger can watch a movie, just like the 2nd row passengers can.
Beautiful SUV. I lease it till next one with bigger engine.
The 2026 Cadillac Escalade vs The 2026 Bentley Bentayga
I love 🩶 this new 2026 Cadillac Escalade Sport Platinum!
I wish they would make a shorter 2-door with the same luxury. Also, a total gloss black DELETE! It needs a twin-turbo V8.
Buy a Chevy Yukon. Save your $$$ Both POS ! 😅😅😅😅
It's embarrassing that in 2026 a brand like Cadillac in the executive package does not have seat belts mounted directly in the seats, it's ridiculous for the passengers in the 3rd row to "jump" over the seat belt to take their seats. !!! What can we say about the executive seats, they are almost outdated, I said almost because there is still hope... good luck with the speakers in the headrests. Take the example of the Mercedes seats... another level, another class! . And since we're talking about the German brand, switch to the Burgmaister audio system and end the Akg trumpets!!
Nice rental.
GM does have a serious engine problem.. I had a 2021 LT trail boss that broke down 6 times in the first year.. I had to file a lemon lawsuit. They agreed to buy the vehicle back from me but I had to buy a similar vehicle from them.. so now I have a 2023 Lt Trail boss.. 27k miles.. have not had any issues yet but it’s also low mileage! Won’t buy another GM until they can stand behind their product
I’ve said it before And I’ll say it again It’s only good for one thing: Trips to the airport to drop off and pick up your family. And second it should only be worth $80,000 NO MORE NO LESS. AS IT WILL BE IN THE JUNKYARD IN 3-5 years.
нет, это попусту выброшенные деньги машина, порш лучше!
Comes equipped with a self destructing 6.2L V8 too! JUNK To fail to mention this in a "review" is a disservice to your viewers, bordering on lying.
