With the Escalade large and in charge at Cadillac dealerships, is there room for another three-row SUV in the brand’s lineup? Caddy certainly thinks so. The XT6 is for a different kind of buyer. Trimmer and more car-like than the ‘Slade there’s loads of standard equipment and a lower price. Tom Voelk travels to Washington D.C. to drive both the Premium Luxury and AWD Sport models (and yes there is a difference, it’s not just trim and graphics).

As always excellent reviews Tom , this car is a mixed bag for me 🤔 I find the escalas design language to be better executed on the ct5 and ct4 , something about it just seems.....off on the xt6 , specifically that hearse looking rear quarter. And the revised xt5 somehow manages to have a nicer interior , despite the xt6's emulation on the xt5 inside. Even though the 3.6 is long in the tooth , GM has made updates to it throughout the years to ensure it's not left behind. It may not seem necessary for Cadillac , however it's more than necessary for this vehicle. The 3.0tt would've been too much for this to handle since it's on the same platform as the Acadia. Personally , my top pick for the segment is the XC90.

Great review as always, Tom! I’m not sold on this model. I think the asking price is FAR too high ($70k!?) and it’s gets the same fuel economy as the much larger and more powerful Escalade. If I was in the market for a vehicle like this the price alone is something that would make me stay away. I’d “cross shop” this with the corporate cousin Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride, maybe a BMW X5, and other models. While the XT6 is impressive (and I will give it the benefit of the doubt), I’m not thrilled about its already outdated-looking interior. I’m sure many of those plastics will start to squeak after a few family trips to the beach.

My thoughts exactly! Yes there is some distinction in terms of design and engineering with the latest slew of GM SUVs and crossovers, but there's still too much overlap in terms of features and powertrains! Cadillac has exclusive engines and platforms but they chose the easy (cheap) way at entering the lucrative 3-row luxury segment! While the XT6 is a solid SUV, it simply brings nothing to the segment worth giving it a second look!!!

Neither of them have an engine this refined, a 9-speed transmission, and with this level of build quality and materials. Stay in your lane. Of course the Hyundai and KIA costs less. If they were priced identically to the Cadillac XT6, nobody would buy them. Hyundai doesn’t compete with Cadillac or even ANY luxury marque for that matter so what sense does it make to compare their prices? Zero, is the answer.

Kevin MZY First you have to find the time stamp where he says “Cadillac XT6 is built on it’s *OWN* platform” because I’ve watched the review in whole and still haven’t come across that statement yet. It’s definitely built on the same platform as the Traverse but a different architecture. Both the Traverse and Enclave that you listed together with this Cadillac XT6 are built on larger variants of the same platform. You forgot to mention the Cadillac XT5/GMC Acadia in your little list which actually were the first vehicles to have the C1XX platform. Chevrolet didn’t get it until 2018. The XT6 directly shares it’s architecture with the Cadillac XT5 and GMC Acadia, NOT the Traverse and Enclave.

The only frustrating thing about this car is the powertrain. I don't have a problem with the 3.6, it's probably the best naturally aspirated 6 cylinder left on the market that isn't a Porsche engine...but there should be something a bit...more? Like, whatever happened to the turbo 3.6 from the XTS Vsport? This would be a perfect home for it. Other than that, standard equipment seems fine, it's a really handsome design, if not exceptionally eye-catching, and the interior looks nice and well built from this and other videos that I've seen. Well executed, now it just needs a powertrain option with more shove!

If the back seats have a composition of reinforced carbon fiber frames with one-or-two thin main Aluminum rim-frames and thin innovative cushioning covering the entire individual seat each, would make the overall back seats even lightweight and pleasing for passengers to sit in. Thin cushioning design by using an advanced version of an integrated mesh-like patches of cushioning setup of each patch customary differentiate to adjust for the weight pressure of each part of the human anatomy. A kind of "bucket seat design" for the back seats. Lean looking back seats but very comfortable for passengers to sit in. Purpose? To make back seats more ergonomically incline design language as more appealing in aesthetics thus giving the interior cabin room itself even more space available for passenger maneuverability.

Tom, I love your reviews. But have to quibble with your point about sharing it not sharing an "architecture" with the Traverse. They (including the Buick Enclave, Chevy Blazer and GMC Acadia) are all based off the GM C1XX Epsilon platform. You can debate whether that means anything in this day/age, as VW has shown with MQB you can take a single platform and scale it to tons of different vehicles at different price points. But trying to differentiate an architecture from a platform seems more like marketing speak to me.

@normt5463 5 жыл бұрын

Even if it could go down the same assembly line the difference in size is allot more than just rebadging it. Do you think they took a Traverse/Enclave and just hack sawed the running rails for the shorter Blazer/XT6? The floor pan is different along with the supports for a smaller design to withstand roof load tests. The obvious to the eye is the sheet metal of which none is shared. The XT6 will have some sort of adapticlve shock that the Traverse does not have so the susenpsinon geometry will change from the subframe down. The engine bay and supports are probably very similar unless there will be a 400 hp Vsport version. All of the suspension tuning will be different also. That goes to the closer Acadia too....

This is on the C1XX platform, along with the the Enclave, Traverse, XT5, Acadia and Blazer. This thing really is just a sugar coated Acadia (due to the size and seating config). FWD on a high end vehicle is just laughable, and that engine is in no way sufficient for this thing, but its the best they can do for a FWD platform. This thing needed to be designed from the ground up to be more SUV like and be RWD, but no that would make too much sense for GM. Ford made the right call with bringing the Explorer back to RWD and with that the new Aviator. Also the luxuries of this being a 3 row crossover die real quick when you can't get a bench or console in the second row, putting it in a weird spot of "it can only seat one more than a vehicle 20% smaller and has the same powertrain (XT5)". Overall this thing is a waste and the lincoln aviator is going to put this thing in its place. GM needs to either ditch this platform or modify it to take RWD and the new 2.7L turbo or they are gonna lose hard in this CUV market, at all levels.

If you could, you would know that More are being leased than sold outright! 2 years ago, i had a New ATS and Now an new XT5 which i love and next year another New One! Go ahead and buy your other Choices! You will pay Lots More and not get the Care and Maintenance Program Cadillac Offers! I have never owned a New Luxury Vehicle that treats and cares for my Vehicle like Cadillac!

I think they could have come up with a better design. I would have stretched out the XT5. There are a lot of them on the road here in Texas. This vehicle looks like an updated trailblazer. Someone needs to take the shackles off Cadillac's design team.

Speeding tickets in VA are more about filling the coffers than highway safety.

Amazing how low the speed limits are set

@Sayua-chan 5 жыл бұрын

Like everywhere else. Speedcams are known to actually reduce safety as drivers are focused on speed dial instead of watching the road.

I would forget this cadi and get a Telluride SX or a Palisade Limited.

@@wiibaron I guess that is true to a certain point. I would not hesitate buying from the domestic market if they would end up providing a quality product for a competitive price. Finally, more likely, the consumer wallet is the one who would appreciate my comment advice.

why didnt they make crossover on their new alpha platform? how many different ways can they package a traverse. Hyundai uses different platforms for their luxury cars. Gm should stop being lazy.

Everyone here raving about the Aviator more than likely doesn't own either that or the XT6. I will admit i don't own neither one but i did my research and actually test drove all the comparable offerings well before deciding to go with my audi q7. The Xt6 in the luxury package offers a much better ride than aviator. The Aviator has already had its far share of recalls since launch, none for the XT6 YET. Ford is sending the aviators 270 miles by truck to the Flat Rock Assembly Plant before hitting dealers for post-production troubleshooting due to all the issues they've been having. Theres a laundry list of issues which can be easily googled. The XT6 is selling more units than Aviator month after month. XT6 offers more standard equipment, More third row head and leg room.

Looks like a minivan. Even more so than other 3 row competitors.

Comparing this to all the other 3 row CUVs out, this new Cadillac XT6 to me doesn't look unique or special at all as it looks like all the other crossovers out there; bland, boring, and has no passion nor character as it's just a big mess that sells regardless if it's all that good or not. Competitors in it's class like the new RWD based Lincoln Aviator offer more luxury and exclusive features than the XT6 for less money. Bleh.. all of these new crossovers are really starting to make my stomach ache. @TomVoelk, you're almost at 100,000 subscribers. Keep up the good work!

This is a car you cross shop with a CX-9 signature. Much nicer car for a whole let less. The seats and dash look good but those gauges look extremely cheap and old.

I haven't seen one in person yet but I think they could have done more in the design room. Look at what Lincoln is doing, look at the Germans, the Cadillac at least on video looks bland in my opinion!
