Man! when I was a kid I used to watch Saturday morning cartoons then after that I'd watch Motor week on pbs. When that was over it was a bitter sweet signal to play outside and ride bikes. those were some awesome times.

lol that prius insult was savage John.

I'll be bummed when he retires

Hennessy HPE800 is the fast Escalade to get. Callaway added a supercharger, exhaust and wheels and pretty much called it a day. Meanwhile Hennessey added forged pistons, connecting rods/ARP bolts, new blueprinted aluminum block, ported heads, competition valves and headers. HPE800 hit's 0-60 in 3.9 seconds an is 120+ mph in the 1/4 mile.

Nice to see John Davis is still going strong as the host... Classy guy

John Davis is the man .

~ Zang, John Davis still rocking it oot..! ~ Gorgeous ~

Amazing to see how he's balded and lost weight. I wonder if he still has his classic Corvette.

wow! i use to watch show as a little boy in the 80s & 90s. wow john davis has aged some!! MAN I LOVED THIS SHOW!!

Damn...John Davis looks great. Not the point of this video, but had to get that out.

"Toyota is building Prius's everyday"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

this is a rolling hunk of merica! thats why this car is awesome

Yo John, this baby has a HUGE presence no matter the surroundings. As for this beast, no way - just can't justify it's existence, not when there's a Callaway Vette, somewhere close by (on the 'showroom' floor)

i woulda like to have see S/C pack on the regular cab Escalade vs the ESV to get the differences 0-60 times

Love the exhaust note, but for that money, it should be faster than that

John Davis is the man and I'll bet he will be like Bob Barker and keep working until he retires when he's 92.

@Motorweek This thing has GOTTA be faster than your numbers suggest. The stock ESV runs to 60 below 6 seconds; lighter SWB is even faster! One other thing: I noticed this appears to be RWD only. So that certainly appears to have an affect on ability to get power down to the ground w/o AWD. Still, the ESV remains in a class all it's own until we see what Lincoln has cooking up with the new Navigator.

Tro cool 😎😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍

waw good

pretty escalade esv

Hennessey is the best at the escalade horsepower boost

They gotta be a lot faster than this considering a bone stock yukon denali xl can do 0-60 in 5.8s and a regular escalade does 5.6s when fitted with 8-spd autos.

Only 560? I've seen companies offer more. Doing 0-60 in 3.9

God damn

I respect this truck as it is and only 1 highly annoying thing obout it is that ofset radio antenna!

The truck has to lowered period. Because its set to high. For the horsepower so take 2 inches off the ride hight for control.

I was expecting this thing to roll over

Can't you tune the transmission to shift better? Or swap it for a vett one?

Wow, that price! :O

I can't believe you've done this.

I like it, I want to drive it, heck I'd rent it, I wouldn't buy it. If any of my mates buy one, I'd love to ride in it every day, HAHA!

Powers impressive, but the cost damn..

Класс!!!

if you want to compare with mercedes than bring the comparison video 2017 gl65 vs 2017 escalade

What is it like 5mpg city 10highway

gls63, Range Rover supercharged and the new Durango srt.

It is a very beautiful car. I really hope it is in Morocco, but only European cars

30liter/100?

When you have five kids but you love Corvettes...

im surprised hes still alive he was early to late 30s in the late 70s early 80s and in his fortys/50s in the late 80s early 90s ...... jesus @the guy talking lol

"Get something practical" she said

According to Car And Driver a stock Escalade has a 0-60 time of 5.8 seconds. And 6 seconds seems to be about average for all reviewers for current gen escalades. Why is this one with 140 extra HP and 100+ extra TQ slower than a stock one?

Go Cadi go

FUCK YEAH AMERICA 🇺🇸

I notice the Escalade looks like the Escalade from True crimes 😂😂

I wonder how they've had the same sponsors for over 30 years

2:30 140hp extra on basically the biggest SUV on the market and the BRAKES LOOK STOCK!!! It would be insane if they didn't upgrade the brakes.

0-60 in 6.0? That's a little slow. My 2010 with a TVS1900 runs 5.5 sec. This needs a little more power I guess. Like 600+. Needs BBK real bad too!!!!

Durango SRT and done

Hennessy supersedes the aforementioned entity.

I'm disappointed they didn't touch the suspension, chassis, or brakes to match up to the power increase...

115k today, and it'll be worth 22k next year. I don't understand why anyone would buy a vehicle that loses 70% of its value overnight. Then again, people buying new Escalades probably have more money than sense.

AMG should take this car for tunning 😉

Cadillac needs a supercharged Escalade-V with around 750hp

Only 6 secs. from 0 to 60?? isn't the regular Escalade, just as fast??

Bizde sadece hayal

Nice Calloway but Hennessey did it better with 800 hp standard wheel base.

Do want.

this would get shitted on by Hennessy's version.

When a G-Wagon is too Expensive and a Cherokee SRT-4 has too little room. Supercharged by Callaway Escalade.

It's funny that the vehicle has this much performance but the people who can afford it will probably never take the thing past 2500 rpms

those small brakes

When the heads or covers on an American V8 say "560" it should mean cubic inches, and nothing else! From a European

You can't lose with twenty-two's

GLS63

what in the hell is the carbon fiber for on that thing? It weighs More than my house, what do they gain by saving a couple ounces?

33

Try the henessy escalade🤓

J'en veux une blindée anti balles de luxe maintenant et quand je dit maintenant c'est maintenant et vive l'Amérique et vive la couronne britannique

"for anyone who is largely in debt, and wants to make sure that everyone knows it

The gas guzzling 2017 Cadillac Escalade, a fossil fuel CEO's wet dream.

Jesus Christ!!!!! John Davis is getting older and older each video

There is no "presence" associated with this car in rich areas. Everyone has one or something more expensive.

ما شاء الله لا قوة إلا بالله نعم هذه هي بذات الكاديلاك إسكلاد التي أريدها مصفحة بالكامل ضد الرصاص + فتحة moon roof panoramic completely armored + مقبض جير بوكس مثل الطائرة bowing او على الأقل مثل ال Cadillac CT6 ؟

Jesus Christ I feel sorry for the people that have to be passengers in this race car lol usually there's corvettes for speed freaks I wouldn't get this option simply because I'm not trying to scare my passengers I would be more then happy to buy the 420 hp option

it ok

given the quality issues with this 8speed transmission I don't think the extra 140 HP is gonna help it lol

20gs and barely 100 go. Oh boy.

LOL

$115,000 god damn. I think I'll wait 20 year and get one for $4,000.

When you really need a cheesy car and the regular escalade doesn't cut it enter callaway

Seeing that thing on the track is so unatural and makes me fear for the driver's life.

This old guy doesnt understand what an app is...

115k and not equipped with panoramic roof??? hmmm

Hennessey makes a 1000 HP kit for these, that's the route I'd go but I'd rather have a Cayenne turbo modded out for my larger SUV needs and yes, I know the Escalade is a HUGE 3 row but honestly, how many people do you see with 4 people in them let alone 7. I usually see a petite single woman driving them.

a-hundred-fifteen-thousand-dollars?!?!?!?!?

Might as well get the 4.7 0-60 amg for the same price

0-60 in 6 seconds? LMAO my stock 2016 8 speed has clocked 5.6 and 14.2 in the 1/4, bone stock

those wheels are tiny on that massive lego block

6 sec to 60 mph ? These numbers isn't anything to boast about . Hennessey conversion produce better numbers than that .

Cadillac. Lol.

Buy the Lexus LX instead.

that plastic Center dash let's down every Cadillac they put it in , looks like a Hyundai dash

this car is too expensive for what it offers...ok it looks nince on the outside...but the interior...soo many loose stuff...also...can you imagine that a 30 k toyota car has a far superior bc than this huge car...amazing...the americans still need the learn european finece....you are on a good path tho :))

For 74K that thing should at least have the brake setup from the CTS-V.. Its pathetic 2 pot inexpensive calipers WTF? If a freaking Tacoma can have 4 Pot Calipers in the front this thing can have a 6Pot & 4Pot Setup for sure costing 2 times more. Its sad even Callaway didn´t think about it.. 2 Pots on a 115K 2.5Ton Vehicle? Get the fuck out of here!

The Range Rover Supercharged is still faster, better looking interior(imo), better handling, and can dominate a mountain range given the proper tires, whereas the escalade doesn't even come standard with 4WD. The Sport is even faster. the Escalade will be cheaper to repair since it's domestic, and is slightly bigger than the RR but that's about it.

Big engine - and can't get to 60 faster than a 4cyl supercharged and turbocharged Volvo XC90? AND the XC gets better mileage AND it actually looks cool and not boxy clunky? I'm in the XC corner. Plus I own one -- I'd put it up against this land yacht gas guzzler any day.

Waste of money.. its Tupperware interior goes great with that Krylon touch paint job...

Too much burgers!

Rather have the Tahoe just ugly
