Fans, enthusiasts and observers have been anticipating the unveiling of the 2019 Cadillac XT4 compact CUV at the 2018 New York International Auto Show this coming week, but we managed to get our hands on complete details about the new crossover ahead of the reveal thanks to an official document published by Cadillac parent, General Motors.
First discovered by Cadillac Society, the document in question is an official GM vehicle order guide published by General Motors, and it reveal all of the features of the new crossover. Here are the highlights of what the 2019 Cadillac XT4 will bring to the table.
Now, all that remains is to see the XT4 in photos as well as in person, plus get see pricing info that’s not part of this scoop. We expect to have photos of the hotly-antiticipated crossover on March 26th or 27th (if not before), and then see it with our own eyes in New York on the 27th, so stay tuned. As for pricing, that is likely weeks away, to the tune of two to five months.
You can peruse the complete, 46-page-long 2019 Cadillac XT4 order guide at your leisure here (in PDF format). We expect to have pictures of the upcoming crossover on March 26th or 27th.
Please note that the information shown in the order guide might change prior to the model’s reveal and subsequent launch. It’s also possible that the information in the guide is preliminary and incorrect.
The Cadillac XT4 is an upcoming compact crossover that will slot under the midsize XT5 as Cadillac’s second crossover utility vehicle (CUV). The XT4 will be underpinned by the front-drive-based E2 platform and will be produced at the Fairfax plant in Kansas City, Kansas.
From a business standpoint, the XT4 is of significant importance for Cadillac’s growth plans, as it will fill a glaring hole in the brand’s vehicle portfolio. With just a single crossover (the Cadillac XT5), Cadillac’s crossover lineup is sorely lacking compared to competing luxury makes, which offer three or more crossovers. In fact, some rivals, such as BMW and Mercedes-Benz, offer up to seven CUVs/SUVs in their lineup, as utility vehicle sales are experiencing rampant growth in the marketplace.
