Escalade SUV EV

#1

Post by dan_b »

I suppose it was going to happen eventually - the gargantuan "Full Size" SUV that is the GM Escalade is going EV. Because SUVs like the KIa EV9 and the Rivian, simply aren't big enough. But at least they're relatively efficient.

Featuring a >200kWh battery (presumably from the Hummer?)
24" wheels
And a whole load of other bloaty malarkey.

This will probably weigh in at close to 4Tonnes.

Had a fast escalade ride to the airport (icelandic volcano year) ..if we'd known we'd have shoved him some dollars to have an imaginary flat & see the season out in Canada ..damn.

The escalade is a big & roomy bloat mobile, well marketed but really nothing special, guess this had to happen, wonder how the weight compares.

Horribly unnecessary in ICE & BEV form ...disappointed to say the least, hoped sh1t like this died with ICE's departure.
