Which is better Cadillac Escalade or Mercedes GL450?
The Caddy went through the quarter-mile in 15.8 seconds compared to 15.1 for the GL450. The GL makes just 335 hp from a smaller V8 but is 400 pounds lighter. Although the Mercedes can’t match the Escalade’s gentle roar under full throttle, that’s small consolation when you’ve been sucker-punched by your neighbor’s Benz.
