The 2023 Cadillac XT6 continues to be offered with two engine options, starting with the turbocharged 2.0L I4 gasoline engine (production code LSY), rated at 235 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque that’s standard only on the base Luxury trim level. The Premium Luxury and Sport trim levels, meanwhile, feature the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 gasoline engine (production code LGX), rated at 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. Output is routed through the Cadillac nine-speed automatic transmission with front-wheel drive standard, and all-wheel drive available for Luxury and Premium Luxury, while being standard on Sport. All first-gen XT6 models ride on the C1 Cadillac platform.
XT6 production for North America takes place at the Cadillac Spring Hill plant in Tennessee. The 2023 Cadillac XT6 began rolling off the assembly line on June 10th, 2022.
