Sold by General Motors luxury brand Cadillac, the Escalade is a full-size luxury sport utility vehicle (SUV), which was the division's first major entry into the popular SUV market.
It was introduced in 1999 as a counter-attack to German and Japanese competitors and to Ford's 1998 release of the Lincoln Navigator. In fact, the production of the Escalade started just ten months after the approval of its project.
The Escalade is built in Arlington, Texas, USA, and its name is a reference to a siege warfare tactic of scaling defensive walls or ramparts with the aid of ladders or siege towers.
Originally based on the GMC Yukon Denali, the Escalade was redesigned in 2002 to make it look closer to Cadillac's new design theme.

Cadillac was founded in 1902 by Henry Martyn Leland from the remains of Henry Ford’s car company. After financial disputes with its bankers, Ford left taking its name, and Leland stepped in, persuading the bankers to carry on with the carmaker. A new name was needed, and inspired in the French explorer that discovered Detroit in the beginning of the 17th century, Leland chose the explorer’s name to baptize the company: Cadillac.
