2000 Cadillac Escalade Preview summaryImage

Ever seen those websites where they show high school photos of celebrities 'before they were stars'? While the Escalade has blessed its owners with street cred since its inception in 1999, the 2000 edition represents the metaphorical caterpillar that settled into its cocoon for a year before re-emerging as a butterfly in 2002. The 2000 Escalade comes in one AWD trim that uses a 5.7 L, 255 hp V8 engine with 4 speed automatic transmission. Besides re-designed rear cargo doors, you won't find much of a difference from the 1999 model.

Gas mileage comes out to 12 mpg in the city and 16 on the highway. The Escalade has 4 doors, seats 5, and offers standard air conditioning, power windows, power door locks, power/leather seats, cd player, and ABS brakes. Towing capacity reaches 6600 lbs.

As with just about all Escalades, the '00 edition gets major style points but spends its gas miles a bit like a trophy wife with an unlimited credit line on 5th Avenue. Keep in mind that models from 2002 on have more powerful engines and significantly more passenger room than the first generation of Escalades. However, if you don't need the newest features but still want to say you own an Escalade, the 2000 edition offers nice enough features at a reasonable price.

Great SUV for the money. Still lots of features for an older vehicle. Love that there is heated seats front and back. V8 power, and these first Escalades have 4x4. Add an aftermarket stereo for apple car play and back up camera. Dec 25, 2023

Loved it & if I ever need another full size SUV I will definitely purchase a Cadillac Escalade. I did not want to sell it but no longer needed the roomy vehicle so I purchased a 2 seater. However, when you're in an Escalade, you're traveling in style!Feb 14, 2012

It was like a tank. The brakes were not the best I have driven. The four wheel drive worked very well and was useful in going up my drive way. It is nice and big and was able to push other cars out of the way. The turning ratios is worse then a tank.Dec 26, 2010
