2023 Cadillac XT5

Car buyers can choose from three trim levels for the 2023 XT5: Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport. The base Luxury trim level includes a power liftgate and 18-inch alloy wheels. If you desire 20-inch wheels for the base trim level, this is an optional upgrade. The Premium Luxury trim level adds a hands-free power liftgate and a panoramic sunroof. If you pick the Sport trim level, you get an adaptive suspension, 20-inch wheels, and enhanced front brakes.

The standard 2023 XT5 features a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine under the hood. This engine pairs with a 9-speed automatic transmission and produces 235 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. If you're interested in upgrading the engine of this Cadillac SUV, you can opt for the 3.6-liter V-6 engine that produces 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. The 3.6-liter engine also pairs to a 9-speed automatic transmission.

Front-wheel drive is the standard setup of the Cadillac XT5. If you live in a snowy climate or find yourself driving on dirt roads often, all-wheel drive may be more appealing to you. All-wheel drive is an available upgrade for the 2023 XT5. The standard tow rating of this SUV is 1,000 pounds, but upgrading to the V-6 engine and adding an optional tow package increases the towing capacity to 3,500 pounds.

An 8-inch touch-screen display sits on the dashboard of the 2023 Cadillac XT5. This touch screen is compatible with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Users can connect their smartphone to the XT5 and use voice commands to stream their music library and saved podcasts, send hands-free text messages, make hands-free phone calls, utilize their go-to navigation apps, and so much more. HD Radio, satellite radio, an eight-speaker stereo system, a built-in Wi-Fi hot spot, four USB ports, and Bluetooth also all come standard. The 2023 XT5 offers seating for five. While synthetic leather upholstery is standard, genuine leather upholstery is an optional upgrade. Heated front seats also come standard, while ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a heated steering wheel are available enhancements.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gave the 2023 Cadillac XT5 a five-star overall safety rating. To add, this luxury SUV comes with the Cadillac Smart System. This suite of driver-assist safety technologies is designed to help drivers get from here to there with added confidence. Emergency braking technologies use sensors and the brakes to prevent collisions, while parking assistance features make squeezing into tight spaces a breeze. Driver-attention monitoring, lane-departure warning with lane-keep assist, automatic high-beam headlights, rear-seat alert, safety alert seat, and Teen Driver also all come standard. If you desire even more safety technologies, you can upgrade the XT5 to include adaptive cruise control, rear collision warning, hands-free park assist, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, a forward-facing night vision camera, and more.
