What engine does the Cadillac Escalade use?
2 Answers
Cadillac Escalade uses a 6.2-liter naturally aspirated engine with 8 cylinders arranged in a V-type configuration and a DOHC valve train. This engine delivers a maximum power of 313 kW, a maximum horsepower of 426, and a maximum torque of 621 N·m. In terms of exterior design, the Cadillac Escalade perfectly embodies Cadillac's Art and Science philosophy. The eye-catching chrome grille follows the avant-garde design style of the Sixteen concept car, and the body side features seven chrome accents. For the interior, the Cadillac Escalade boasts a luxurious cabin with a heated leather and wood multifunction steering wheel, and a tri-zone independent climate control system that allows passengers in all three rows to adjust the temperature individually.
As a car enthusiast, I'm particularly fascinated by the Cadillac Escalade's engine—it's that 6.2-liter V8 powerhouse, delivering around 420 horsepower, and it runs with rocket-like intensity. Towing a trailer or climbing steep hills is effortless; just step on the gas, and it surges forward with exhilarating acceleration. Although the fuel consumption is a bit high, reaching up to 16 liters per 100 km in the city, its cylinder deactivation technology helps save some fuel, keeping it from being too extreme. I've also tested it against its rival, the Lincoln Navigator, and the Escalade proves more reliable, rarely encountering issues even after ten years of driving. The engine's roar is absolutely thrilling, making it perfect for outdoor adventurers. If you're a driver who craves excitement, this is definitely the right choice.
