About Cadillac Escalade
When it was new, critics stated the 2010 Cadillac Escalade provided its passengers with luxury and high-quality interior amenities, a powerful V8 engine, and good handling for a vehicle of this size. Buyers can pick between a regular-wheelbase Escalade ESV and a long-wheelbase Escalade ESV, which provides more cargo room.
The Escalade is powered by a 403-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine, which critics felt gave plenty of punch to get the vehicle rolling. For the class, fuel efficiency is adequate. Escalades with rear-wheel drive get 14/20 mpg city/highway, while all-wheel drive vehicles score 13/20 mpg. The standard Escalade can tow up to 8,300 pounds, which is about typical. Maximum load capacity in the normal Escalade is 108.9 cubic feet or 137.4 cubic feet in the ESV, the latter of which is quite good for the class.
There are standard leather seats for up to eight passengers on the inside. Standard features include a Bose audio, electric liftgate, parking assist system, Bluetooth, GPS, and tri-zone climate control. One disadvantage of the Escalade is that, like the 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe and 2010 GMC Yukon, its rear seats must be removed to make the most of its spacious cargo capacity. Because the Escalade hasn’t changed much since 2007, you might be able to save money by purchasing an earlier model.
The cost of insuring a Cadillac Escalade is determined by a number of factors, including your deductible, the level of coverage desired, and the kind of insurance selected. Your age, gender, region, credit score, and driving record can all influence your insurance prices. To get the best policy for you, consult our auto insurance guide.
If you like the Escalade, you might like the 2010 Land Rover Range Rover as well. The Range Rover outperforms the Cadillac in terms of off-road capability, and reviewers praised its sumptuous interior features. Keep in mind that the Range Rover can only seat five people and is more expensive than its competitors.
The 2010 Lincoln Navigator is another SUV to consider. The Navigator is also available in conventional and long wheelbase models, which can handle comparable quantities of cargo. The Navigator’s easy-folding third row was favoured by reviewers, but the Navigator’s handling was less appealing.
The Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the 2010 Cadillac Escalade with all-wheel drive starts at $66,000, while the two-wheel-drive variant starts around $63,500. A fully outfitted Platinum Edition can cost up to $85,000. The Escalade is priced significantly higher than the Lincoln Navigator, BMW X5, and Infiniti QX56, but far lower than the Land Rover Range Rover HSE and Lexus LX 570. Fair Purchase Prices, which represent what consumers actually pay, are updated on a regular basis, so be sure to compare by clicking on Fair Purchase Prices. When it comes to resale values, the 2010 Escalade outperforms the Lincoln Navigator and Land Rover Range Rover, but trails the BMW X5, Audi Q7, and Lexus LX 570.
