The instrument panel design is shared with the Tahoe and Yukon. The covering material is different, but the visible gauges and usefully large, well-placed controls remain. Top- notch automatic climate control and Bose Acoustimass sound systems set the tone for comfort. The Escalade has unique, and very comfortable, seats. The front buckets are power-adjustable and heated, of course.
Rear accommodations are also first class.
A center armrest has storage, cupholders, and headphones. Auxiliary audio and climate controls allow rear passengers their own environment. A cargo net and cover are standard, as are five power outlets, three in the front, one in the rear seat, and one in the cargo area. Its springs and shock absorbers are tuned and matched for a soft, comfortable ride with no tendency to float. Bumps are dealt with and forgotten.
