Industry First: 2021 Cadillac Escalade Teases Massive New Curved OLED Screen
Cadillac engineers have become known for their innovation in autonomous driving in recent years, but their latest technological marvel is a horse of a different color. The 2021 Cadillac Escalade is bringing something completely new to the automotive industry: a massive, curved OLED (organic light-emitting diode) screen that produces an unmatched picture quality and crispness. This is important to consumers because it means that Cadillac dealerships will finally have a vehicle that is completely different from their competition in the form of a full-dash screen.
Benefits of OLED for Automotive Use
OLED is both more expensive and more impactful than traditional LCD screens for a variety of reasons. With infinite contrast ratios and no "fade" around the edges of the viewing area, an OLED emits a perfect shade of black that makes the image really "pop" in low light situations. The flexibility offered by OLED means that the screens can be bent, shaped and even rolled without causing damage to the image or resolution. This makes it feasible to wrap the entire dashboard in a fantastic, ever-changing display.
Mystery Surrounding the New 2021 Cadillac Escalade
Cadillac engineers are still maintaining some secrets around the new display, but experts estimate that it could be upwards of 38" viewing area with the possibility of full 4K resolution based on the expected pixel count. Plus, the 2021 Escalade will also contain the new Super Cruise functionality that is widely considered to be one of the most advanced in the industry -- and certainly the most fun for drivers. As long as the way is clear, Super Cruise tech essentially drives itself on the highway, speeding up and slowing down to maintain safe distances.
