The Cadillac XT6 initially launched in the Spring of 2019 as a 2020 model year vehicle, slotting above the Cadillac XT5 as an all-new, three-row, midsize-plus luxury crossover utility vehicle (CUV). Now, the XT6 has launched availability for the Middle East market.
Buyers will have two trim levels to choose from, including the Premium Luxury and the Sport, which arrive as two opposing branches in Cadillac’s Y trim level strategy. The trims are differentiated by a number of features inside, outside, and under the skin. For example, the Premium Luxury is decked out with wood trim, while the Sport uses carbon fiber. The Premium Luxury is also equipped with Bright Galvano exterior accents, while the Sport gets dark accents and standard 20-inch wheels. Both trims offers unique fascia treatments and tail lamp treatments, as well as different driving dynamics, as we covered previously.
With regard to the cabin space, the 2020 Cadillac XT6 is equipped with a rotary controller and new jog functionality, making it easier to navigate the eight-inch diagonal color infotainment screen. A Bose Performance Series stereo with 14-speaker sound is optional, as is semi-aniline premium leather seating, an in-vehicle air ionizer, automatic heated and ventilated front seats, and heated second-row outboard seats. An automatic heated steering wheel is standard.
The tech features are plentiful, highlighted by things like standard Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, and Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert. The options list includes things like a Rear Camera Mirror with Remote Wash, Enhanced Emergency Braking, Automatic Parking Assist with Braking, Night Vision, and a Head-up Display.
Each model is powered a 3.6L V6 engine producing 310 horsepower. The ‘six mates to a nine-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel-drive.
The Cadillac XT6 will be sold in all markets where Cadillac has a presence, including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, China, South Korea, and Russia. It’s unclear whether the vehicle will make its way to Europe.
