Some friends of ours considered the new Escalade and the dealer wanted $140k . They ended up with an RR SE.

So "considered" means you thought about getting it but ended up not getting it?

I can't believe this is the 2nd most considered "luxury" vehicle
In middle America perhaps?

They are candy coated turds…. They look good but are questionable where you don't easily see

Loll the fact that Cadillac Buick and Infiniti made this list is proof that the metrics used are complete bullshit.

In reality, I'd bet my life savings that BMW, Tesla, Mercedes, and Lexus (in whatever order) are the actual top 4 most "considered" luxury brands.

Coming from a General Motors employee the Escalade, Black Wing CT4/CT5 and Lyriq are really taking Cadillac to the next level. The New GMC Yukon and Sierras are also heavy hitters.

I'm very surprised the Buick Encore and Enclave made this list.
