New Cadillac Escalade Hybrid
40 percent more fuel-efficient than the gas-guzzler.
Cadillac's new scalade is said to deliver 40% fuel savings over it's luxurious gas-breathing brother Escalade, however sales are falling due to the fall in gasoline prices.
The Escalade can run in full electric mode when launching or at low speeds, and work in hybrid mode in all other instances. The 332 horsepower V8 can turn off half it's cylinders when they are not needed, also contributing to its fuel efficiency.
Though this is one step in the green direction from cadillac, it seems ubsurd to pay close to $100,000 if they reasoning behind a hybrid is to save gas money. Anyways, it's a luxury SUV that has gone green.
