So glad that Jeep went with a straight-6 over a V6 in their downsizing effort(although the 6.4 Hemi is the business!). The Escalade is is a touch more stylish, but I appreciate the Wagoneer's boxyness and overall better polished luxury experience at this price. You can get 85% of the Escalade in the $80K Tahoe High Country, including this very same powertrain.
For folks looking for the max space / cargo space, these two are the best. And the GW seems to have hit it out of the park with the exception of the hearse like look from the back.
The Wagoneer is classier, Escalade has a more aggressive styling. Third row is much better on the Wagoneer as you have a nice big window whilst on the Escalade there's a huge pillar that blocks the view out almost entirely.
Love this review...we just purchased a 2023 Wagoneer L 4x4 series 2 with the new Hurricane engine...for $79k, it's the best choice for the money compared to the Suburban or Yukon XL, Expedition ain't even close....I looked at a used Escalade and I can see what you mean by feeling like a Chevy 😂...Grand Wagoneer L is the nicest interior in the industry right now 👍🏽
@@zeuskodisos2389 lol by a mile? I'd be happy to test that theory! I've got 170 more horsepower, 150 ft lb of torque. That's assuming you have a 6.4. Plus supercrusie, i can do the mile without touching my steering wheel. You have a jeep grand Cherokee that ate too many cheetos :)
I own a 2023 Cadillac 600. Recently I had to travel out of town and rent a vehicle. I got a cord expedition and I actually liked it as much as my caddy. Only difference nothing beats a caddy on a Sunday morning blaring blues on blast volume.
Buying one myself in a couple weeks. Got a great deal: $94k for a series 3 with 74 miles. No dual rear screens, but I don’t have kids who need to watch SpongeBob in the car.
@@inchlorIentztJiIu Because it has the highest quality interior in its class. Not everywhere worries about the exterior or how people might view their vehicle.
Definitely cars to lease and not buy for the long haul. I can't imagine either of those will, on average, hold up well over 5 years of ownership let alone offer people more than 100k miles of trouble free ownership. Way too many things to break and I'd imagine when things break they'll be expensive to fix.
As for your steering comments, on the Grand Wagoneer did you go into the setup menu and select "sport" mode for your steering? With the Jeep you have 3 steering choices, Sport, Normal and Comfort. My wife prefers Comfort and it is a big old barge. I use Standard and Sport and it really perks up the vehicle. Will it fool you into thinking you're driving a Challenger? No. But it makes it a nice driving SUV
Reviewers, always forgetting who the actual buyer is (me.) I won’t be caught dead at a jeep dealership with a six-figure ride. I won’t deal with their crappy service department, crappy coffee and crappy service. This conversation is Lincoln and Cadillac only. People who pay this much for their rides are paying for the full experience.
Okay… and this guy just gave you proof that the wagoner is the better experience. And you’re not the only buyer the world doesn’t revolve around you kid. And Lincoln doesn’t even compare. Honestly you seem like you’re just butthurt over the fact that the gw is the better vehicle.
@@Ploto-c2k If you were a six-figure-plus buyer you may understand. The dealership experience is 1/2 the ownership experience. Lincoln comes to my driveway to get my Navigator for oil changes..
Man you did not compare the 3rd row. The wagoneer is much better with power reclining seats and its very own sunroof. And then there is the offroad capability of Jeep. Going camping when it snows or rains is much easier and safer. Escalade has better looking side view though.
I never see a Grand Wagoneer on the road, not many people are buying them. I went to both dealerships and test drove both. I got the Cadillac Escalade, it was a better. I love, love it.
This guy is talking BS hyping up the jeep. We rented a brand new, top of the line, Grand Wagoneer and we ran into one electrical issue after another. It was very frustrating! There's no way I would pay 80 to 100 grand for that jeep.
Love my Jeep wagoneer. It drives really well and the interior feel high quality unlike any chevy, toyota or ford. Plus it has Jeep DNA it can handle off road better than those other vehicles. 10.25 Air Suspension lift.
So glad to see this review, Hands down to this man, I was always wondering why all reviews say Escalade better, and finally this review showed reality, I personally prefer looks of Wagoneer L
“In , the Cadillac Escalade currently outsells the Jeep Grand Wagoneer with 40,250 vehicles sold this year. The Jeep Grand Wagoneer this year sold 11,735 vehicles this year.”
I wonder what seat offers better massages. I have bad back pain and audi q8 had the best massaging seats I've tested so far. How do you think they compete against each other in that department? Can you feel the massage at all or it's more like subtle touch rather than actual massage?
Escalade isn't a brand though, its just a Cadillac model. Jeep's cachet is its off-road heritage. Although the Grand Wagoneer name was not made to be an off-road machine, it wouldn't surprise me if it has more off-roadabilty built in than the Escalade.
Not necessarily better interior than the grand wagoneer. Caddy may have better sounding engine but doesnt dampen the road noise as well as the grand wagon
It's a _little_ bit older at this point, but check out Cliff's previous comparison of the 2021 Escalade and the 2021 Navigator (ua-cam.com/video/Jbx-SW3GiYs/v-deo.html). We also have single reviews of the 2022 Navigator (ua-cam.com/video/be0iatdeq5I/v-deo.html), the 2023 Escalade (ua-cam.com/video/tBSoTRn6JFw/v-deo.html), and a new 2023 Grand Wagoneer will be filming shortly!
Well we all know what happens when you put 2 turbo chargers or a supercharger on a V8, they will make that twin turbo straight 6 seem like nothing in comparison.
The Escalade just looks better to me. Also surprised the Wagoneer L, as stupidly massive as it is, has less overall cargo capacity than the Escalade, which looks no bigger.
We know Jeep paid you. In 10 years the caddy is still on the road. That Jeep if still on the road will be on its second engine rebuild or replaced. I will take the caddy
These two are nice but nothing like the greatness of the lincoln navigator and I would never own a Cadillac for the reason of how it started and it will never be anything but a thiefs vehicle sorry if you own one and think their great that's you I will always see them as a thief and nothing less
Escalade is hands down better and more established in every single way. According to every other reviewer and every other auto manufacturer because they all have created a model to beat the Escalade and knock it off it’s pedestal but have failed miserably. Navigator may have come first but the reality is… Escalade will always be the benchmark due to celebrity/ public influencers hype all across the world and it’s sheer road presence is unmatched. Always have been always will be. Numbers don’t lie… it outsells everything. Escalade owners don’t even cross shop it’s just that popular… I digress
That is not true at all. I’ve driven both and the Escalade rides far better then the wagoneer. The Escalade has plenty power. The 6.2 engine get up to speed very quick. I don’t know what this guy is on, he is absolutely biased to the jeep wagoneer for his own benefit. I guess that is the only way people would look at these horrendously ugly Jeep Wagoneer by spreading false information.
Keep look so ugly in the side panel and the gear the inside look complicated but pretty seems like more functional than Cadillac but Escalade hand down prettier inside out

These days the Escalade is unreachable. It is easier and cheaper to get a Range Rover.

The naturally aspirated engines always last longer than shXXy Turbocharged IMHO.
Oh! Forgot to mention, Super cruise is wicked!
As an ESV V owner, There is nothing better in the American market. I had a Mercedes GLS 63 previously and the escalade far surpasses it for me.
As a Grand Wagoneer Obsidian owner who also owns a Lincoln Navigator... The Jeep craps on the Escalade. By a mile.

@@zeuskodisos2389that’s some delusion right there
Nice comparison ! Glad to see jeep moving in the right direction.
I own a 2023 Cadillac 600. Recently I had to travel out of town and rent a vehicle. I got a cord expedition and I actually liked it as much as my caddy. Only difference nothing beats a caddy on a Sunday morning blaring blues on blast volume.
Nice comparison! I'm going with the Grand Wagoneer.
For it to sit at the shop?
Buying one myself in a couple weeks. Got a great deal: $94k for a series 3 with 74 miles. No dual rear screens, but I don’t have kids who need to watch SpongeBob in the car.
@@moldman3686 he said gw not Escalade
Why? The GW is hideous

Enjoyed the review. I think I would like to lease the GW and see how it held up over 4 years then maybe buy it at the end of the lease if it did well

The lincoln navigator black label L is in the same category as these 2
The Lincoln and Cadillac don't come close to the jeep
I'll take the Escalade every time over the Jeep.
Man you did not compare the 3rd row. The wagoneer is much better with power reclining seats and its very own sunroof. And then there is the offroad capability of Jeep. Going camping when it snows or rains is much easier and safer. Escalade has better looking side view though.
This was very informative

You are genuinely the Peter Drury of car reviews.
I would definitely argue that the Lincoln should be there! They probably just couldn’t get there hands on one.
Love my Jeep wagoneer. It drives really well and the interior feel high quality unlike any chevy, toyota or ford. Plus it has Jeep DNA it can handle off road better than those other vehicles. 10.25 Air Suspension lift.
Get both. Why burden yourself choosing one over the other.

“In , the Cadillac Escalade currently outsells the Jeep Grand Wagoneer with 40,250 vehicles sold this year. The Jeep Grand Wagoneer this year sold 11,735 vehicles this year.”
An important point to mention, with wagoneer, you will be dealing with keep service departments. That’s scary with a 100k truck.
Who ever thought that Jeep would one day kick Cadillac's butt? 😂
The navigator L is indeed in the same ballpark as those two
The navigator is 3rd place by far imo
Not at all these days Escalade is unreachable. It is easier to get a Range Rover
Bizarre to leave it out.
Escalade ftw
I don't understand why these videos never show the cargo boxes in their entirety or lower the rear seats.
That's what people want to see.
Just ordered my grand L love the luxury
That jeep looks like bus for real and every review says the caddy drives better and the jeep drives like the old Cadillacs like a boat
Why are you buying an extra large SUV for driving dynamics? You’re looking in the wrong segment.
I wonder what seat offers better massages. I have bad back pain and audi q8 had the best massaging seats I've tested so far. How do you think they compete against each other in that department? Can you feel the massage at all or it's more like subtle touch rather than actual massage?
Great comparison CarCurus Thank you
Review the Rolls Royce Cullinan with the BESPOKE Stereo
Jeep has no cache. The Escalade does.
Yeah, it can be a Suburban, a Tahoe, a Yukon, Yukon XL, Yukon Denali, or Yukon Denali XL. 😂
Escalade isn't a brand though, its just a Cadillac model. Jeep's cachet is its off-road heritage. Although the Grand Wagoneer name was not made to be an off-road machine, it wouldn't surprise me if it has more off-roadabilty built in than the Escalade.
How do you get a quarter million from as tested prices of ~$110k???
Added together
If you have the money to pay cash for it go for it …
Everyone has a Cadillac, I'd have to get the Jeep just because of the rarity. I've still yet to see one on the road.
Until you go to a Jeep dealer
@@paulm6481 If I could afford a Wagoneer it wouldn't be much of an issue, still have the rarity.
I'm in the Houston area, and I actually see more W/GW than Escalade. And so far only one Escalade V.
@@chiemekaa Well damn, that's cool. I'm up in Seattle as you can probably tell. Different strokes I guess.
I'm a jeep fan... but they aren't on the road because they are all in the shop. So many issues
These things are so expensive now. This isn't a loan. It is a prison sentence. Once the repo-apocalypse gets going, then prices might go down.
Good comparison review
It seems like Jeep would add rear-wheel steering.
Seems like that would be almost required for those monster L versions (parking them in human parking lots)
No thank you I’ll take the Escalade
Caddy ride handles better, rides better, looks better, sounds better, better interior. Caddy in easy win.
Objective or subjective?😂
Those are truly facts about caddy, but the Escalade is unreachable these days. It is easier and cheaper to get a Range Rover.
Agree with ya!
Did you watch the same review I did? Cause that's NOT the case. The wagoneer is hands down better.
Not necessarily better interior than the grand wagoneer. Caddy may have better sounding engine but doesnt dampen the road noise as well as the grand wagon
3.0L Duramax is also an inline 6...not a V-6
And then why not Navigator L?

Why not compare wagoner L with Escalade esv?
Exactly! Silly comparison.
Well we all know what happens when you put 2 turbo chargers or a supercharger on a V8, they will make that twin turbo straight 6 seem like nothing in comparison.
The Escalade just looks better to me. Also surprised the Wagoneer L, as stupidly massive as it is, has less overall cargo capacity than the Escalade, which looks no bigger.
If only jeep quality of the electric system was not the same as many English car using Lucas electronic from the 1960 and the same reliability.
Might want to do some math classes, A quarter of a million = $250, 000.00
I have never heard a valet say, "Nice Jeep" Bahahahaha! Be serious.
If you get thrill from power, get the wagoneer L.
For exceptional luxury and comfort, Escalade
I'm sorry but, that Jeep is hideous... 😬
Pumping in 87 octane into the TT6 wagoneer will kill the engine....so the cost savings for fuel economy goes to the Cadillac.
Not according to the engineers who designed it
Pass on the jeep as long as they are owned by Fiat (Fix It Again Tony).
Poor Lincoln Navigator
We know Jeep paid you. In 10 years the caddy is still on the road. That Jeep if still on the road will be on its second engine rebuild or replaced. I will take the caddy
Jeep will never have,what the Caddy has
jeep gas mileage is horrendous though

I felt that it was an extremely unbiased review. He said mainly good things about both it seems the Jeep just took the lead in his opinion
You also haven’t driven the engine he’s reviewing on the Jeep to compare that
The Escalade is unreachable these days. It is easier and cheaper to get a Range Rover
Do you hire Bilbo Baggins for this review?
Keep look so ugly in the side panel and the gear the inside look complicated but pretty seems like more functional than Cadillac but Escalade hand down prettier inside out

Thanks to Ukraine. Ukraine successfully drain our money.
