DESIGN
Cadillac XT4

You have a high-profile career, so why not drive a vehicle that maintains the same level of prestige? This Cadillac is dressed to impress, inside and out, with its exterior and interior updated for the latest model year. Your XT4 will look equally stylish front and back, aligning with your professional image and refined taste.

Exemplary Exterior

From first looks to parting glances, the Cadillac XT4 makes a statement. With its sleek lines, two bold grille designs, all-new alloy wheels that range from 18 to 20 inches, and distinctive vertical LED lighting, the XT4 demands attention. Meanwhile, available slim roof rails increase practicality while maintaining the overall luxury aesthetic.

The XT4’s sporty silhouette is ready to go from the boardroom to the ballpark or the downtown bistro and everywhere in between. Thanks to its sleek physique—181.1 inches long and 76.7 inches wide—you’ll be able to navigate urban streets and maneuver through crowded parking lots with ease.

Luxe Interior

The cabin of the XT4 is likewise outfitted with premium soft-touch materials while standard ambient lighting helps set the mood. An abundance of standard and available amenities ensures you and your passengers will remain comfortable even on long commutes, road trips, or after a taxing day:

  • 8-way power front seats
  • Dual-zone climate control with air filter
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Power lumbar massage
  • Dual panel glass power sunroof

Despite its smaller stature, the XT4 still offers first-class treatment no matter where you’re seated, including best-in-class rear legroom of 39.5 inches. You’ll still have plenty of room to stow golf clubs, luggage, shopping bags, and more, with up to 48.9 cubic feet of cargo space.

TECHNOLOGY
Cadillac XT4

When you’re behind the wheel, technology plays a crucial role in enhancing your on-the-road experience. From advanced infotainment and seamless connectivity to cutting-edge driver assistance, you rely on a variety of sophisticated, state-of-the-art systems to keep you informed, entertained, and safe.

Innovative Infotainment

Immediately upon entering the cabin of the XT4, you’ll see your command center: the 33-inch curved LED display with Google Built-in. Integrate your smartphone through wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ and use Natural Voice Recognition to make calls, connect to apps, access navigation, and more without taking your hands from the wheel or your eyes from the road.

Standard Active Noise Cancellation blocks unwanted engine sounds and road noise so you can enjoy conversation, music, or some much-needed peace and quiet. Speaking of music, you’ll enjoy a fully immersive listening experience through the available 14-speaker AKG™ audio system.

Smart Safety

Of course, the most important technologies are those that help protect you and your passengers, and the XT4 is fully equipped. It includes the Cadillac Smart System™, a suite of more than a dozen standard driver-assistance features, including:

  • Automatic Emergency Braking
  • Front Pedestrian and Bicyclist Braking
  • Forward Collision Alert
  • HD Rear Vision Camera
  • Rear Park Assist

Also standard are additional features designed to keep a vigilant virtual eye on all sides of your vehicle, such as Blind Zone Steering Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning.

PERFORMANCE
Cadillac XT4

With your dynamic, on-the-go lifestyle, you need a road companion that can keep up the pace. The Cadillac XT4 is compact yet capable of commanding the road. From sporting events to client meetings and social gatherings, the XT4 can take you to them all—reliably and efficiently too. Turns out that power and efficiency needn’t be mutually exclusive.

Energetic Engine

The XT4 equips a 2.0L Turbocharged engine that generates 235 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque for a spirited driving experience. It’s paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission for smooth, seamless gear shifts. You’ll easily accelerate to merge onto highways or navigate city streets while maintaining an impressive fuel economy (more about that later).

You’re a go-getter, and the Cadillac XT4 is too. Available Twin-Clutch AWD (all-wheel drive) offers added confidence regardless of road or weather conditions. Meanwhile, Driver Mode Selector allows you to choose the mode based on conditions you encounter or even your mood: Tour, Sport, Snow/Ice, and AWD.

Energy-Efficient

The XT4’s Active Fuel Management helps you make the most of every mile. When you’re cruising down the highway, it uses a reduced-cylinder mode. When you need to accelerate, it adjusts back to full-cylinder operation. As a result, the Cadillac XT4 achieves optimal fuel economy.

When you drive a luxury SUV like the XT4, you may find yourself exploring new routes or taking the long way home. Thanks to its 15.9-gallon fuel tank, you can. In fact, you’ll be able to travel approximately 460 miles before stopping to refuel.
