One of the more noteworthy items in the Onyx Package are the monochromatic badges. As Cadillac Society covered previously, the new monochromatic badges replace the standard multi-colored badges, adding more gray/silver to the XT5 exterior. The badges are available as a separate extra, and can be purchased for $175 for any model in the 2021 Cadillac XT5 lineup. The Cadillac XT4 is also available with monochromatic badges.
As a reminder, the 2021 Cadillac XT5 is offered with two engine options, including the turbocharged 2.0L I4 (production code LSY) and the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 (production code LGX). Both powerplants mate to a nine-speed automatic transmission.

Although I know all the black trim is the going thing, definitely not for me though, Cadillac needs to offer the XT5 without all the black plastic at the bottom and do something body colored like on the XT6. And I’m not saying don’t offer the black, just offer something body colored as well. All the black around the bottom just reminds me of base model vehicles back in the day with their gray or black bumpers.

Well, the cladding you refer to is part of what makes these “utility vehicles” as opposed to sedans… but to your point, there is a way to offer more painted exterior elements rather than cladding.
