As ongoing supplier issues continue to negatively impact the automotive industry, Cadillac Society has now learned that certain wheel options for the 2023 Cadillac XT6 are currently under constraint.
Two of the three affected wheels are LPO-level options, meaning they are installed by the dealer rather than when the luxury crossover is on the assembly line. All affected wheel options are as follows (relevant production codes listed in parentheses):
As a standalone option priced at $3,095, the 20-inch Chrome wheels are currently unavailable to order on the 2023 Cadillac XT6 Luxury and Premium Luxury, while still being offered on the Sport trim. These wheels are also included as part of the Radiant Package (production code PDV), which is offered on Luxury and Premium Luxury trims. However, this package is currently unavailable to order.
Meanwhile, the 20-inch Gloss Black wheels are faced with similar constraints, and are not available for the Luxury and Premium Luxury trims, but are still offered on Sport. These optional standalone wheels are priced at $2,495, and are also included as part of the Onyx Package, which is priced at $4,895 for Luxury and Premium Luxury and $3,695 for Sport. However, this package has been unavailable since late 2022.
Finally, the 21-inch 12-Split Spoke alloy wheels with Diamond Cut/Android finish are only available on the XT6 Premium Luxury as part of the Platinum Package (production code JSE). At this time, these wheels are completely unavailable to order.
As a reminder, the 2023 Cadillac XT6 is available with a choice of two engines. The first is the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 engine (production code LGX), rated at 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. This engine is standard on Premium Luxury and Sport models and is identifiable by the 400 badging on the liftgate.
The second is the turbocharged 2.0L I4 engine (production code LSY), which is rated at 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. This engine is offered exclusively in the base Luxury trim, and the liftgate wears the 350T badge to identify the boosted four. Both engines bolt to Cadillac’s nine-speed automatic transmission. Production of the luxury crossover occurs at the Spring Hill plant in Tennessee for all markets except for China.
