LED HEADLAMPS AND
TAILLAMPSLED HEADLAMPS AND TAILLAMPS
Every element on the Escalade was designed for both performance and
looks and your Greewood Village Cadillac Dealer, Rickenbaugh
Cadillac will demonstrate all the 2012 Cadillac Escalade has to
offer. The available LED headlamps and taillamps, for instance,
leave a stunning visual impression. But they’re also an example of
the advanced technology featured throughout the Escalade. LED bulbs
are brighter, last longer, and are more energy-efficient than
traditional halogen bulbs. They shine like jewels on the Escalade.
And in a way, they are.
