Here’s What A Refreshed Cadillac XT6 Could Look Like

The 2024 Cadillac XT6 luxury three-row crossover is headed into its fifth model year without any major changes or updates, meaning that it’s stayed more or less the same since its introduction for the 2020 model year. The XT6 could benefit from a mid-cycle refresh, and Cadillac Society became curious about what such a model could look like, so we went ahead and rendered it.

To make our hypothetical refreshed Cadillac XT6 realistic, we borrowed elements from other vehicles in the luxury marque’s lineup, using the refreshed 2024 Cadillac XT4 and refreshed 2025 Cadillac CT5 as inspiration. The front fascia of our refreshed XT6 rendering sports a revised front end, with a set of vertically-oriented headlight signatures that start at roughly the middle of the front fenders and extend downward in the fascia, continuing Cadillac’s inimitable headlight signature. The primary headlights, meanwhile, are positioned in a vertically-stacked cluster just inside these vertically-oriented signatures. Our make-believe Cadillac XT6 also sports narrow, horizontally-oriented lighting strips below the hood line, framing the top of the grille.

The grille itself retains the familiar five-point polygon shape, while the grille insert features a bolder signature. We’ve also expanded the size of the lower grille, pulling it upward toward the grille for a more aggressive, dramatic expression.

Our potential refreshed Cadillac XT6 rolls on a set of multi-spoke wheels with a gray finish, while a set of black window surrounds hints at the Sport trim level, as per the most recent version of the Cadillac Y trim level strategy.

Previously, the Cadillac XT6 was expected to undergo a mid-cycle refresh for the 2024 model year. This hasn’t come to fruition, but it’s highly likely that it will take after the XT4, adopting similar design elements to maintain congruity across the Cadillac lineup.
