Cadillac offers the XT5 in 3 distinct, meticulously crafted trims: Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport. The Luxury introduces a sophisticated signature design with bright brushed aluminum roof rails, 18-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels in Bright Silver, and sharp LED lighting that conveys understated strength.

Stepping into Premium Luxury, one discovers 20-inch alloy wheels with a polished/Android finish, elegant illuminating door handles, and a hands-free power liftgate complete with programmable memory height and branded projection lighting, all framed by leather seating surfaces with mini-perforated inserts and an exclusive Bose® Performance Series 14-speaker system. At the pinnacle lies the Sport trim, where exterior sophistication meets performance intent: Pearl Nickel–finished 20-inch 12-spoke wheels, gloss-black roof rails, and Brembo® performance front brakes with red-painted calipers signal that luxury need not compromise dynamism.

The 2025 XT5’s powertrain options are curated for both poise and vigor. The standard 2.0L Turbocharged 4-cylinder serves as the foundation, producing 235 hp and 258 lbs.-ft. of torque when fueled with premium gasoline.

For those desiring stronger propulsion, the 3.6L V6 elevates expectations with 310 hp and 271 lbs.-ft. of torque. Both engines are coupled to a refined 9-speed automatic transmission that delivers gearing transitions as seamless as the ride itself.

Whether navigating Montgomery’s undulating avenues or accelerating onto the Ohio turnpike, the XT5 delivers composed, intelligent handling. FWD comes standard on Luxury and Premium Luxury, while AWD is optional, gripping surfaces with confidence. The Sport trim elevates capability with standard Twin-Clutch Sport Control AWD, bolstered by Brembo front brakes that lend both presence and performance precision.

Further refining the ride, Cadillac’s available Chassis Damping Control system adapts suspension response up to 200 times per second, balancing taut composure and cushioning refinement. The result is a driving experience that is both fluid and alert, an SUV that feels as tailored as it looks.

Inside, the XT5 reflects quiet confidence. Its cabin envelops occupants in cut-and-sewn heated 8-way (Driver)/6-way (Passenger) power leather seats, natural wood accents, and finely tuned finishes that speak of artisanal craftsmanship.

Spacious yet intimate, the mid-size SUV accommodates 5 passengers and offers 30 cu. ft. of cargo space behind the rear seats, expanding to 63 cu. ft. ft. when folded. Even the cargo threshold is measured with intention, hands-free liftgate functionality includes a programmable, adjustable height, making every loading action effortless.

Technology in the XT5 is elegant in both capability and simplicity. The available Bose® Performance Series 14-speaker audio system wraps the cabin in concert-hall clarity. Connectivity is seamless with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, complemented by an optional in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot and OnStar® services, always smart, always intuitive.

The available driver information center, presented on an 8-inch color display, delivers critical data with clarity and discretion. Optional technology packages enhance convenience, from tri-zone climate control to fully customizable ambient settings, reflecting the attention to detail expected in a luxury cabin.

Cadillac positions safety at the core of the XT5 experience. Even the Luxury trim includes essential protections such as an HD rear vision camera, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and front and rear Park Assist.

Premium Luxury brings Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert into standard consideration, while available HD Surround Vision and Automatic Parking Assist raise the bar in spatial awareness. These systems operate with quiet assurance, enhancing confidence without intrusion.
