Cadillac Escalade – the large SUV from General Motors listed in the truck register: V8 engines from 236 to 313 kW, gross weight up to 3,950 kg, body length up to 6,600 mm
Cadillac Escalade is a large SUV from the Cadillac brand, part of the American General Motors group. Because of its high gross vehicle weight, the Escalade falls under the N vehicle category (trucks) rather than the M1 passenger-car category in many registration systems, which is why it is listed here among the trucks even though it is marketed as a conventional passenger vehicle. The model suffixes ESV, EXT, Sport-W and LCW Automotive 4x4 denote body and equipment variants, including the extended-length ESV and the earlier EXT pickup variant.

The register lists 7 versions here with 236 to 313 kW from V8 engines of 4,576 to 6,190 cm³ displacement, kerb weights from 2,694.5 to 3,370 kg, gross vehicle weights from 3,538 to 3,950 kg, and body lengths from 5,430 to 6,600 mm with widths from 1,985 to 2,100 mm.
As a premium SUV, the Escalade competes in the US with the Lincoln Navigator and Range Rover and ranks among the largest and heaviest series-production SUVs, which explains its unusual N-category registration for a passenger vehicle in Europe.
For a used example, check the automatic gearbox and four-wheel-drive system, air suspension where fitted, the brake system given the vehicle's high weight, and corrosion on the frame and underbody; parts run through the Cadillac dealer network.
