Melania Trump Hosts Exclusive Preview of 2007 Cadillac Escalade

2005-11-18 -- NEW YORK, NY - Cadillac, the American icon of luxury, design, and performance, unveiled the 2007 Escalade, the next-generation of the luxury SUV, at an exclusive event at Milk Studios in New York yesterday evening. Hosted by Melania Trump, guests including Fat Joe, Tyson Beckford, Alice Roi, Tara Subkoff, Julie Haus and Kwame Jackson gathered for an intimate look at Cadillac's latest design marvel.
The 2007 Cadillac Escalade made its worldwide premiere in Beverly Hills last week at the grand opening of "Escalade on Rodeo." The red carpet rolled out for the week-long celebration where Oscar-winner Adrien Brody hosted the opening night event and guests including Allison Janney, Paris Hilton, Stavros Niarchos, Wilmer Valderrama, DJ AM, Regina King, Chris Kattan, Wolfgang Puck, Virginia Madsen, Jadakiss, Frankie Muniz, Eduardo Verastegui, Anthony Anderson, Billy Morrison, Eddie Griffin, John Salley, Rachel Hunter, Rodney Peete, Styles P and Vida Guerra had a first look at the luxury SUV.

"Since its inception, Escalade has been a design icon - a luxurious vehicle that discerning customers aspire to own," said Jim Taylor, Cadillac general manager. "The all-new Cadillac Escalade establishes a new level of refinement and style, delivered with an instantly recognizable form that introduces the next step in Cadillac's design renaissance."

Since its inception in 1903, Cadillac has had a long association in both entertainment and fashion that spans across music, television and film. Hollywood stars and style icons have been driving Cadillac's since the days of Jean Harlow and Elvis Presley and the vehicles have been featured in over 25,000 songs, 154 television shows and over 90 feature films.

Based on General Motors' all-new full-size SUV platform, the '07 Escalade features new powertrain, chassis, safety and interior systems. These integrated systems deliver the most powerful and most efficient luxury SUV in the segment, led by a new 6.2L all-aluminum V-8 engine with variable valve timing technology delivering 403 horsepower (301 kw) and 417 lb-ft of torque.

Cadillac Escalade will be available in the first quarter of 2006, with extended-wheelbase Escalade ESV and Escalade EXT models to be introduced later in the year. The Escalade family is one of the most aspirational nameplates in the industry and attracts the youngest customers in Cadillac's portfolio of automobiles.
