That's right, you can now go green with the Escalade! This behemoth of a SUV gets an average of 20mpg. This version of the Escalade is not really too much different from the other ones, other than the price. This hybrid will run you for $71 grand at its starting price.
The talk about this car is two sided. One says that it's great that we can finally have a hybrid SUV that combines luxury as well as hit 60 mph in under ten seconds. The other side is much less sympathetic, and often snide. One user of Autoweek.com said, "This is the automotive equivalent of ordering a double bacon cheeseburger with chili-cheese fries and a diet coke".
Either way you look at it, Cadillac is taking steps to become greener, and this is a first step. Cadillac does say that more hybrids are on the way. This is crucial for the survival of any automotive company. That is the way the world is moving, even with the way we electrify our homes.
So kudos to you Caddy! And thank you for bringing us a hybrid of your own!
