Few cars can match the road presence of the latest-generation Cadillac Escalade and while it is just about as outlandish as an SUV can get, especially in V guise, Larte Design has released a bold styling kit for it. Dubbed the Esthete, the kit starts at the front fascia where Larte Design has developed a carbon fiber grille that isn’t just lightweight but also adds an extra level of menace to the SUV thanks to the redesigned slates and mesh. The Escalade Esthete then features a carbon fiber front splitter with two twin-lens fog lights. The carbon fiber theme continues with an all new hood that includes a large air vent to help cool the engine.
Moving down the sides you will find carbon
fiber front and rear wheel arches which add to the presence of the Escalade
without going over the top and looking excessive. Alterations continue at the
rear and include a large spoiler, a new piece of trim on the tailgate, a bold
diffuser, and bespoke exhaust tips. Rounding out the modifications are carbon
fiber mirror caps, 24-inch forged wheels, and a host of Larte Design badges.
The tuner notes that the bodykit does not
violate the Escalade’s factory warranty and that it will take approximately six
hours to install. Videos of the kit that have been shared to social media
reveal that the tuner has also adorned various elements of the front fascia
with colorful LED lights to really make the SUV stand out. These include lights
along the front splitter, multi-colored vertical daytime running lights, lights
around the front badge, and lights in the hood scoop.
