Are you holding out for a vehicle more luxurious and well-appointed than a congressman’s livingroom? Do you ever wish you could continue watching your favorite TV show and sipping on a chilled drink whenever you’re stuck in rush hour traffic? Or perhaps you simply want the most comfortable vehicle imaginable for long-distance trips with the family.
Whatever the reason, the 2017 Cadillac Escalade “CEO” by LCW Automotive is the pinnacle of luxury vehicles.
To make the “CEO,” LCW takes a standard Escalade ESV and enhances it with a suite of decadent, comfort-maximizing features. For instance, the main seats are covered in European leather with contoured orthopedic memory foam; the roof is skinned and replaced by a new insulated panel with 3″ of additional headroom; and an aluminum-alloy partition between the driver and passengers is installed, hiding a 40-inch TV that rides on a silent gas pressure shock.
The Escalade CEO also comes standard with rear-facing jump seats, although a custom hardwood cabinet with tambour doors can be had in their place. Other optional equipment includes an electronic drink dispenser, 14-speaker audio and satellite TV, a smoke extractor (for you cigar connoisseurs), and a soft-ride air suspension system.
Accomodating all of the extra electronic equipment in the CEO is a proprietary “cool box” behind the rear seats, which houses the amplifiers and other electronics. That’s “cool” as in refrigerated, but also, “cool” as in nifty. LCW does this to keep the relays and transformers from overheating on long trips.

But, that’s not a 2017 MY???
Clearly Francisco burning passion for cars lacks a little interest in details.
Not reading the entire article before you throw shade makes you look very dumb.
He said “throw shade”

Not aiming high if that thing’s “the pinnacle of luxury”.
Give me a bespoke Roller any day over this.
KFC sells “rollers at less than $2 each for a fast lunch!
At 0:32, they cut the video just at the moment the tables friction joint gives up and tilts downward as the man is typing. Not a good sign of quality or thoughtfulness of its design if you have to use your legs to prop up the table to keep it from tilting as you use it.
Also, there’s no need for that visible car alarm detector back there. It screams aftermarket, not exclusive. Same thing with the jump seats. Dump them or look like every other ESV-cum-limo conversion out there.
Lastly, nobody is using CD’s anymore, neither is anyone lugging around a ‘CD wallet’ of burnt Limp Bizkit crap them made 20 years ago.
These aftermarket companies dont know true luxury and always mess up the details. And when you point it out to them (which means people with money notice), they get all defensive and just make excuses.
They need a little less marketing hype and to actually learn the craft better.
