For the first time ever, the Cadillac Escalade is being offered with a 3.0L Duramax Turbo Diesel! This engine costs the same as the 6.2L gas V8, makes the same 460 lb-ft of torque, and combined with the 10 speed automatic transmission, delivers a seriously more efficient luxury SUV. One slight surprise is the inline 6 diesel is actually rated to tow slightly less than the gas (supposedly due to the increase in weight). Regardless, the smooth and torque Duramax fits perfectly with this giant luxury SUV, offering peak torque at 1500 rpm, and a extremely impressive fuel range. This Platinum trim Escalade brought the amazing things I loved about the first one, the OLED screens, the AKG sound system, the comfort, the presence. After 1000 miles with this one, I am firmly convinced that the Duramax diesel is absolutely the perfect powertrain to pick for the new Cadillac flagship luxury SUV!

Fun fact: The Cadillac Escalade and Lamborghini Aventador models share their suspension system technology. GM’s Magnetic Ride Control was licensed to Lamborghini for the Aventador model. Released in 2020, MRC 4.0 is still currently the *worlds fastest adapting suspension system.*
The single thumb down is from Parker
Seems like you’re having far too much fun with this thing. I’ll gladly take it off your hands, no problem
I didn't want to give it back to GM, you'll have to direct the request to them lol
I can't agree more, I had my first ride in the new Escalade just recently and I thought it was amazing! Thanks!
Its really impressive! Happy to hear you liked it too
Great vid Eddie!
Thanks!
Super cool Eddie, about time GMC put some new tech plus their diesel in their flagship SUV.
Noticed your camera was struggling a bit at night when that incredible SVJ showed up...looked like you were getting 12 fps max in the dark.
I just can't imagine, Duramax + medium miles range battery. Dream...
The Diesel Escalade, Yukon and Tahoe are the most sensible SUV’s on the market no doubt.
He said 90$ cupcakes lol nice video bro truck is sick!!
One thing that would be nice to know is what speed you were driving when you got 27 mpg.
Massage seats (proper massage seats not just Michigan roads) are definitely goals!
Michigan roads lolol. Agree, the Escalade ones are very nice
Really useful video. Thanks for sharing. Thumbs up! One thing I wonder is with the lower horsepower that comes with the higher torque how well will this accelerate trying to pass someone on the hills of a high mountain highway if you are already going say 70 mph before beginning to pass? I ask because i clearly see how the high torque that kicks in at a lower speed is great for the zero to sixty sort of thing, but what about if already at high speeds on a highway hill and wanting to speed up further. Any thoughts would be welcome. Otherwise, incredible engine. Your comment at about or just after the 9:30 mark about some fumes coming in thru the open back window when driving and filming thru the open back window, it concerns me. Any further thoughts on that? Could have been just a unique circumstance I suppose, but wondering.
On a separate thought, I love the light color leather interior, except for the light colored floors, those concern me since at different times people get into my vehicles after having been out and about getting dirty doing different things, myself as the driver included. I think this lighter color might be better if it came with black, carpeted floors, though this concern may not be as big for some as others. I wonder, can you get black premium carpeted floor mats to put in over the light carpeting, ideally that would cover much of the surrounding carpet not just wear your feet are most of the time? This is an suv that passengers can move around in between seats and rows after all, not just sit in one spot the whole time. I ask because I prefer the carpeted floors to the rubber mats, though I do suspect one can always get the black weather mats to largely address this concern.
Man what a beautiful interior. Gorgeous. How does ride compare to your RAM?
More controlled damping for sure.
I love it Diesel engine
Nice 👍
finally come diesel
How is diesel sound from engine when standing outside?
Is the diesel more expensive to maintain?
Is the Duramax more reliable than the gas version for someone who drives 100 miles a day for livery?
Great review Eddie! I am seeing a ton of these brand new Escalades so I suspect that Cadillac is selling a ton of them. Cadillac put the DEF sprout right by the gas fill area like a normal person. BMW put the DEF sprout in the X5 in two places in the engine bay. Beautiful vehicle!
Nice to see how this video aged. He was paying barely 3.00/gallon for diesel. 1yr later it's 4-7.00/gallon. 25mpg is nice but you have higher maintenance costs (oil changes) with diesel, added cost of Def fluid and the higher cost of diesel itself. After all that and paying the intial premium for the diesel option gas is really break even or a little cheaper over 5yrs of ownership.
Doesn’t matter no lifter problem on this engine
I just love the car, but fuel range looks little off, it looks like it takes about 30 gallon, so on an average of 24 to 25, should give you easily above 700 miles, I drive GMC Yukon for living, has 5.3 gas engine, I can almost every can get close to 600 miles, I love to have an Escalade, any problems so far? Electronics or the Diesel engine?
Thank you
Nice! How much of an mpg impact would the added weight of the Escalade have over a diesel Tahoe? Turns out, not too much! (Just did a 1700 mile road trip in my Tahoe - got essentially the same mpg as you saw)
Oh wow. if anything that's more impressive for the Escalade!
@@EddieX course, being in Texas, much of my drive was between 75-90mph.
Getting famous off of comments day 293, so I can live the dream, live every day like it’s your last🤙🚀
So glad you kept doing your own thing on RUclips and left that other clown to sink his own ship.
I have greatly enjoyed all my experiences and appreciate all the support :)
Who other clown? What happened? 🤔
@@AltosGarage oh that clown is it. Good job then. I like and prefer Eddie's content over that fool's any day
@@AltosGarage thanks for the background. I never could stand watching the other guys video. He was to full of himself like the car was an accessory for him while Eddie is actually reviewing the cars
@@AltosGarage Thanks for the insight, I was so confused.
I’d go with the gas option I never cared for the diesel exhaust smell
does diesel have supercruise feature ?
Irrelevant feature. Super cruise works on both
How about the use of DEF.... how does that work for the Duramax?
Damn a DirtyMax Cadi??
Welcome to the diesel escalade 😁
In a couple of years, I may trade my 2018 Escalade Luxury for the 2021 Diesel.
I prefer the 18 honestly
@@truthtimetv4575 I took my 2018 Escalade to get a new key programmed. I got a chance to sit in a 2021 Premium with the super cruise. The 2021 is a lot larger than the 2018. I may agree with you on the 2018 outer appearance looking better than the 2021, but the interior is much improved with the screens. I don’t know if I am going to trade for a 2021 model in a couple of years.
@@corpnupe85 I hear you on that for sure the interior is so much better. I just don’t know for me if it’s worth so much more in the end. I suppose if your looking a few years out resale should at least be reasonable.
@@corpnupe85 also sure helps the fact you can get over 25mpg on the diesel
It only took them like 20 years to put the Duramax in this truck despite the trucks need for the Duramax for the entirety of that 20 years. The vehicle is obsolete already and throwing a Duramax motor after a long last is not going to change that.
الله يرزقنه🏃🏻🤍
another outstanding review ! Brand new diesel Escalade, and what does he NOT show you ?
The fucking engine ! LOL But I got to meet his freinds and see his fuckin cookies so I guess that makes up for it.
$110K and no super cruise? Yikes!
Had almost every other option haha.
He said that as if Super Cruise is the only option available and has been standard equipment previously or currently on other models. Lol
If anybody really wants one, just wait 2 years and get it for 50% off... ;)
I mean depreciation is a thing on almost every car haha, but I don't think its quite 50% in 2 years. That would be a brutal residual
@@EddieX Agreed, I may have exaggerated a little bit, but man the six figure cars seem to drop fast.
I typically always buy used, just bought a new G550 as the new ones are as cheap as the new ones. Hopefully, this trend sticks around for a while....
A Fiat powered Cadillac smh
Almost Half of 2021 Cadillac Escalades Have Sold for over $100K
The redesigned 2021 Escalade starts at $77,490 for the base Luxury trim, but GM reports that 43 percent of buyers paid more than $100,000 for theirs.
"[The] all-new Cadillac Escalade retook market leadership in its segment in Q4," GM stated in its 2020 fourth-quarter sales report. It sold 9454 Escalades in that time, including 2020 models. GM also said the Escalade's fourth-quarter retail deliveries were up 19 percent. Car & Driver
