I think the 2015 Escalade interior is a step above the interior of the 2013 model. It is nice to see the darker brown and black leather instead of the beige. And I think that the centre console looks better having more texture instead of just being flat. I think that the Escalade is doing a good job of competing with the QX80. I don't think that it is the interior design that will be the deciding point between the two vehicles. Price, exterior design, and options are the bigger differences.

Caddy just released a picture of the 2015 Escalades interior...

all that inside this with a cadillac face. GM is a business after all, the Escalade is pretty much free money.

should also see a return of the Escalade Hybrid.
I still think QX80s ten year old interior is better than the Escalade

The interior is looking pretty sweet. I think that the leather seating looks quite comfortable.
The exterior looks nice, but in the end there is only so much designing you can do to a vehicle when it is this big. I like the sharper edges better than the more rounded corners of the QX80 though. I think Infiniti could do with an update on the QX80.

not impressed at all. A vehicle like this would look bulbous without the sharp lines, if they gave it any sort of 'design' it would look quite out of place. Actually kind of how i feel about QX80

Thats easy to say, although they use the same platform, there are quite a few differences between the two. The current escalade is already a big step up, and the new one with a whole new refresh pushes that even further,its still jus5t a rebadged this

Do not agree at all, I think those leather seats look flat and unsupportive....
QX80's rear seats are much better IMO, they are at least like the captains chairs up front, not as much bolster but way more than the flat back of the escalade...

Good point, it's something cadillac should have done, and even then it would still be easy to have them fold away. They should still be nice. But as far as any american SUV goes, the new Escalade is the best, it sets the mark.Do not agree at all, I think those leather seats look flat and unsupportive....

lots of armorall and lighting I guess? Escalades are all bling, so this just helps it be more blingy.
BTW how cool would it be if brands like Infiniti offered rear seat setups like this:
This would be pretty cool, but it almost looks like a limo or executive car set-up. The Cadillac seats could be a bit uncomfortable if you are going on a long road trip, but I don't think that they look uncomfortable. I mean I'd have to sit in them in order to give a worthwhile opinion. I would be a supporter of the back seat set-up like in the picture above^^^lots of armorall and lighting I guess?
