The vehicle’s leather-clad, seven-passenger cabin has been upgraded and feels more luxurious, thanks to higher-quality materials and more attractive design. Escalade interiors come in one of two treatments: Ebony or two-tone Cocoa-on-Cashmere. A redesigned backlit instrument panel is lower and further forward than in the previous model to add a sense of space while diminishing the big-truck feel that some might find intimidating. A new power-folding second row makes getting into or out of the third row easier.
