2022 Escalade Technology and Safety Features

Beyond the addition of luxury elements in the cabin, it has entirely upgraded the Escalade's electrical capabilities. The digital dashboard, which is made up of three curved Screens that are layered on top of each other to create a whopping 38-inches of consolidated electronics; some of which provides the driver's gauge cluster and the rest of which displays the CUE touchscreen infotainment for both the driver and the passenger, is the main attraction.

Other technological elements have an amplified navigation system and an optional rear-seat entertainment package, which has 2 12.6-inch screens with streaming capability and a wireless charging pad. Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility, as well as a Wi-Fi hotspot, are included as standard features. Regardless of which Escalade model you buy, music lovers are in for a treat. Accolade's basic and additional sound systems were created in cooperation with Grammy-winning sound and acoustics company AKG, which has received numerous awards. The other trims come standard with a 19-speaker Studio audio system, but Platinum vehicles come equipped with the AKG Studios Reference system, which features a staggering 36 speakers.

Should a collision with a car you're following come closer, this feature will notify you promptly so that you may take the required action before the situation becomes worse.

Additional notifications will be sent to your phone if you are dangerously near to a detected automobile and are receiving a tailgating notification.

When combined with Forward Accident Alert, the technology assists you in avoiding or reducing the impact of a front-end accident with a vehicle you're following when driving at speeds below 50 mph during daylight hours.

According to the manufacturer, if you are traveling less than 50 mph during the day, the system can assist you in averting or lessening the severity of a significant collision with a person who is immediately in front of your car
and who the system recognizes immediately, according to the company.

Additionally, it has the capability of deploying forceful emergency brakes on its own or increasing the driver's quick braking performance, in addition to providing pedestrian alerts. At night and in low visibility, its capabilities are severely reduced.

The usage of this function is beneficial in general, but it is especially beneficial when driving on roads that are foreign to you. High beams are activated and deactivated when an oncoming vehicle is detected, preventing the oncoming car's driver from becoming blinded while also making it easier for you to see what is ahead of you. The fact that drivers frequently mistakenly blind one another without realizing it is one of the most helpful aspects of this technology.

The distance between a moving car you are sensed to be following can be estimated by using the following distance indicator. This information can be useful in determining whether you are following too closely to the car.

ACC uses an advanced camera and radar technology. ACC helps to set a cruise speed and distance. When traffic slows, you do too; when it picks up, users resume their predetermined speed and distance. Then there's ACC to Stop-and-Go, which allows you to stop when the car ahead stops. Lane Centering allows you to remain in your lane by scanning the lane markings. Not only that. All these features are now available in Smart Cruise Control, which can automatically adjust your vehicle's speed to meet the posted limit.
