Cadillac Escalade Hybrid

2011 Cadillac Escalade Hybrid

The Cadillac Escalade Hybrid and it's V8 6.0 engine was the first SUV from the luxury segment. The Cadillac Escalade Hybrid stands from the rest of it's family with distinctive features: exclusive grille and front bumper, 22" wheels, LED lights and white & blue interior lights.

The Cadillac Escalade Hybrid carries the GM Two-Mode Hybrid system. The Cadillac Escalade Hybrid system consists of an Electric Variable Transmission (EVT), the Energy Storage System, and a NiMH battery pack improve the fuel efficiency.

Thanks to this system, along with others like the Active Fuel Management (which disconnects four cylinders when not all are needed) the Cadillac Escalade Hybrid is 40% more efficient than traditional models according to EPA.
Considering the size and the 337 HP of the Cadillac Escalade Hybrid, those numbers aren't bad at all. Capable of running with E85 fuel, the emissions can be reduced even more.
