The new 2023 Cadillac Escalade V ($178,898 in Canada, $149,990 in the US) is the biggest, baddest and loudest SUV from GM, and it’s the first to wear a V-Series badge. An already beefy 6.2 L V8 has been made even beefier for the V, thanks to a supercharger that’s bigger than the one in the mighty CT5-V Blackwing. To handle the 682 horsepower through its full-time AWD system, the Escalade V has seen numerous improvements, such as: a forged steel crankshaft, forged aluminum pistons, and an adaptive air ride suspension system that has been designed and tuned for the V model.
Thomas and James are eager to see how the new Escalade V performs on the road and against its competitors in a drag race. Does it truly deserve to wear a V-Series badge? Watch to find out! We hope you enjoy the episode. Thanks for watching! SUBSCRIBE!
A huge thank you to Idris and the team at Land Rover MetroWest www.landrovermetrowest.ca for lending us their 2023 Range Rover, and to Charles Mac @Iamthemac for bringing out his G63!

I'm working in Germany close to the Ramstein Airbase and American Muscle Cars are pretty common here. But when I first saw a Cadillac SUV almost sounding like this, I first thought that its either tuned or driving without any exhaust. But after watching this video, I understand why this beast was in my review-mirror at almost 230 Kilometers per hour.

That Escalade V is like a 7-seater Camaro or Corvette, and I think that's what they were going for. It's very very expensive, but it does all these tasks you could ask of it, and with seating for 7. It's videos like this, that make me wish your channel existed when Ford was still building the Flex, because I think you guys would actually like it quite a bit, especially an AWD EcoBoost one (which my family has owned 2 of). I think exposure from media platforms like this would have helped sell more of them. Awesome work as per usual guys, keep it going!

And the Escalade V ESV has even MORE cargo room. I think the ideal scenario for the ESV, honestly, is with the third row removed completely. You can haul four VERY large adults and enough gear for a month-long road trip in this car and probably do a Cannonball Run across the US while you're at it.

@@mattbrew11 true that, I see cab on those big semi-trucks do the same thing on the road when they get those 80,000 lbs loads moving. The cab rises a few inches when that massive torque is applied. It reminds me back in the 70's when I was a kid; I had to warm the family Buick up in the morning during the New York Winter season. That V8 had so much torque that while in park, I would give it gas and I would move vertically. The engine torque would actually be twisting the frame and make the seat move upward.

Although I still like the previous older version of the Escalade better. The Escalade still remains the undisputed "King of SUV Bling" since its induction. And is still the status symbol of Luxury SUV's. Everybody....I mean everbody knows what an Escalade is. Some people may know what a GLS, G wagon or X7, etc,is. Piggy-backing off what the host stated, if you see a few GLs or G wagons in a row going down the street, one would think there is a party at the local night club; But, If you see a few Escalades in a row, one turns to the local news station; because something significant and /or of great importance has happened or is happening.

Durango is a good bit faster than the escalade v, but also a good bit smaller. Fairly comparable though for doing stuff, both tow a ton, both have plenty of space for a family, both have virtually no cargo room with the 3rd row up, and both sound mental, in a good way. Gotta admit, i'm partial to the Durango and.its less opulent take.on it. The headrest speakers and weird pattern on the seats and all the displays... kinda too much for me. The Durango is a bit more reasonable to me as a family vehicle, despite being faster and harder edged. I'd hate to see what happens to a curved OLED display when a kiddo launches a toy at it full speed. I'd hate paying to replace it even more.

I didn’t even realise they re-released. I think for its original MSRP it is a bargain and it was such a good car for the price…however a brand new one for $404,000 (which is impossible(I kid you not, not even MB VIP customers can get ahold of them)) it’s starting to raise my eyebrows. For an extra $20,000 you could get a new Bentayga V8 or a new DBX. Only an extra $75,000 can get you into an Urus (if you can get a new G Wagon brand new…). There is currently a G63 with 22,000 km on Carsales for $650,000…one with 22 km is $599,999. For that money, I would save that $100,000 and get an Urus. The G Wagon market is insane and I just don’t see the value….A Lamborghini URUS is cheaper than a Mercedes, and what would you rather say you drive, a Lamborghini or a Mercedes.

Yes, But the Escalade has been and maintained the "King of SUV Bling" status since its introduction. Although the Lincoln Navigator pioneered this segment ( Luxury SUV), after Ford started the SUV trend with the Ford Explorer back in the early 90's. Everyone else is just following the leader, even Porsche, which is almost embarrassing But as the saying goes, imitation is the greatest form of flattery.

​@@MrGreenelight No, not really i wouldn't call the Escalade the "King of SUV Bling" that's more the G-Class or the Defender. And the Navigator did not really pioneered the Luxus SUV segment that was more the Range Rover i would say. But yes the Explorer defnitly helped starting the trend for SUV but don't forget cars like the Mercedes-Benz M-Class or the Toyota RAV4. And where did Porsche follow the "leader" only because cars like SUV's are more and more wanted that's called Supply and demand.
