2021 Cadillac Escalade
Just when you thought the Escalade couldn’t get any roomier, bolder or more aggressive, it does. Just when it seems to have reached the boundaries of comfort and technology, it goes beyond. For 2021, Cadillac has taken the Escalade up more than a notch. Its stout, chiseled exterior offers no apologies. Its onboard technology, comfort, and convenience surpasses even the highest expectations.
Welcome to the 2021 Cadillac Escalade. This is the Fifth Generation Escalade that is larger, more luxurious and smarter than its predecessors. It is a roomier, 3 row luxury SUV that is so advanced, it practically drives itself. In fact, it can.
You’ll Like What You See. Love What You Get.
The Escalade is the real deal. The 2021 Cadillac Escalade is big, strong, aggressive, and bold. It makes no effort to fit in with the crowd. It has a near vertical front end with an oversized grille that proudly sports the Cadillac crest. Distinctive front-end lamping announces its arrival in brilliant, contemporary fashion. Its exterior design is muscular and straightforward. Its rear hatch is trimmed in extensive LED lighting that has become an Escalade calling card.
Sleek? Aerodynamic? Not quite. The 2021 Cadillac Escalade is what it is. Unstoppable and uncompromising. It is the vehicle for those on a mission and for those who won’t be defined by someone else’s standards.
An Appreciation for Power
The 2021 Cadillac Escalade was built for those with an appreciation for power in all its forms. Outfitted with a 6.2-liter V-8 engine, the Escalade generates 420 horsepower with 460 lb-ft of torque. Paired with its standard 10-speed automatic transmission, the 2021 Escalade can transport its passengers from zero to 60 mph in as little as an estimated 5.5 seconds. You may not be required to accelerate at that pace. It is, however, comforting to know that you can.
Comfort and Technology
Inside, the Escalade provides big space, amazing technology, brilliant versatility and extraordinary comfort. A series of curved LED displays take the Escalade’s dashboard to the digital realm. There is a series of touchable screens and gauge clusters that provide entertainment and infotainment data second to none. A swipe to the left or right helps get you where you want to go.
This new generation Escalade is expected to offer Super Cruise, a hands-free, semi-autonomous driver-assist system. A set of sensors, front camera, 360-degree cameras and both short and long range radar systems monitor surroundings and along with mapping data, can take control. A driver focused camera ensures readiness should manual control become necessary. Expectations for Super Cruise include an enhanced lane-change on demand system. At the flip of a turn signal the system monitors the surrounding lane and changes lanes when safe.
Of course, the Escalade’s cabin features luxury appointments that Cadillac has been providing for generations. Choose 16-way power-adjustable front seating that includes a massage feature. Enjoy concert-quality sound through an impressive 36 speaker AKG sound system. Even small touches like soft-close doors make your experience in the 2021 Cadillac Escalade exceptional.
Is the 2021 Cadillac Escalade for You?

2020 McLaren 720S
The most challenging part of describing the 2020 McLaren 720S is deciding whether it is more like a fighter jet or a Formula 1 race car. Maybe it’s time to recognize that the 2020 McLaren 720S is just what it is, an exotic supercar that appeals to just about all the senses, and does so intentionally. Incredibly light, insanely powerful and almost unimaginably aerodynamic. The 2020 McLaren 720S is created with purposeful appeal for those who appreciate the unique qualities of an exceptional supercar. If price is an obstacle, move on. If not, move forward. This is an automobile crafted to lift you to the new levels you may be seeking to achieve. The 2020 McLaren 720S has been called the “everyday supercar.” If every day was your birthday and Christmas rolled into one.
A Thrill Ride is Just the Push of a Pedal Away
The McLaren 720S for 2020 is packed with power from a 4.0 liter, twin-turbocharged V-8 engine that produces a thrilling 710 hp at 7500 rpm. This translates to 568 lb-ft of torque. The twin-turbo’s talents however, are saved for the open road. This creates two definitive experiences, one that is smooth around town. The other, when the pedal is pushed to coax them to life. It is then you are rocketed forward. In real terms, this means the 720S will propel you from zero to 60 in a mere 2.8 seconds. It will soar over a quarter mile track in just 10.4 seconds. The 7-speed dual clutch pairs superbly with the gearbox in providing a “hands-on” feel whether in Track, Comfort or Sport mode. Larger, carbon fiber shift paddles behind the uncluttered steering wheel enhance the driving experience. This is a thrill ride you’ll never tire of, and never tire of sharing.
Chiseled to Perfection
Outside, the dramatic forward-cabin design is chiselled to perfection, with every curve, vent and airflow included purposefully. Yours is the best seat in the house, looking down the nose of the 720S to the road ahead. Like the front seat of a roller coaster, this alone provides a higher level of thrills. The driver-centric cabin places all your controls within easy reach.
The 2020 McLaren 720S is built around the racing-inspired MonoCage II carbon fiber tub. The MonoCage II provides a safer cocoon for those inside. It delivers a more rigid ride, one that is lower to the ground than most. The premium Pirelli P Zero tires are staggered slightly higher in the rear, gripping the pavement. Large, powerful carbon-ceramic brakes provide confident stopping power.
Fun in Functional
You may not take your 2020 McLaren 720S for a weekend of camping or kayaking, but it will certainly stow enough luggage for a weekend trip to your favorite retreat. It is comfortable for longer stretches of roadway and attention has been paid to providing a superior view. It drives smoothly and easily in the city and will quickly put traffic behind you on the open road. “Everyday supercar” may depend on what every day is like for you, or perhaps what you want it to be.
We personally invite you to experience the new line-up of McLaren motorcars, including the 720S for yourself. Slide into its aircraft-inspired cockpit and bring its powerful V-8 twin turbocharged engine to life. Experience the 720S fully as your confidence grows. Contact us to schedule an appointment convenient for you today. Everyday may never be the same.

This is an Audi that delivers 369 lb-ft of torque that shifts effortlessly and seamlessly through the Tiptronic eight-speed automatic transmission. The result is a smooth shifting, dynamic driving experience. Power and performance are engineered to provide not just brute force. This is, in part, what separates the 2020 Audi SQ5 from the crowd. However, it will still allow you the pleasure of travel from zero to 60 in 5.1 seconds. Pretty impressive for a luxury SUV.
The Audi Virtual Cockpit
The available Audi Virtual Cockpit elevates your driving experience with a generous 12.3 inch instrument display that permits drivers to customize their experience.

Comfort to Exceed Expectations

The 2020 Audi SQ5 Premium comes standard with leather seating surfaces, 20” 5-double-spoke-star design wheels and more.

2020 Audi Q3
Audi calls its 2020 Q3 the “compact crossover that’s big on style.” That says a lot in just six words, but it only barely begins to describe the style, comfort, versatility, and driving enjoyment that awaits you behind the wheel of the 2020 Audi Q3.
