Stunning at every angle, exhilarating to drive, and loaded with functionality, the new 2023 Cadillac XT5 boasts the perfect balance between luxury and performance. This stylish compact, luxury SUV offers space for up to five passengers and an expansive 63 cubic feet of cargo space.

The Perfect Ride For...
The Cadillac XT5 is the perfect vehicle for families, executives, and anyone who enjoys the finer things in life. Why is the XT5 ideal for such a diverse array of drivers? It starts with the XT5's three, well-equipped trims. The entry-level trim is the XT5 Luxury. It comes equipped with a super-efficient 2.0L Turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and a host of premium features commonly reserved for upper trims. The Luxury trim comes standard with Wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and the innovative Cadillac Smart System suite of driver and safety assistance features. The base trim even comes equipped with Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning.
Steeping up to the Premium Luxury trim opens the door to even more advanced safety features as well as first- and second-row leather seating surfaces. And the highest trim, XT5 Sport, elevates performance to the next level with a dynamic 3.6L V6 engine. Simply put, the Cadillac XT5 is the perfect vehicle for anyone who needs ample versatility wrapped in an iconic and luxury-laden package.
Drive and Handling
As previously mentioned, the 2023 Cadillac XT5 offers two different engine options based on the trim and package you select. The standard 2.0L Turbo engine boasts an impressive 235 HP and up to 258 lb-ft of torque that works together to deliver a premium feel. Available on the Premium Luxury trim and standard on the Sport trim, the blistering 3.6L V6 elevates performance to the next level. This engine delivers up to 310 HP and 271 lb-ft. of torque.
No matter the engine you choose, both are equipped with several fuel-saving technologies, including Active Fuel Management. Active Fuel Management helps you maximize every MPG by seamlessly disabling half of the engine's cylinders when you don't need them. With great power comes greater responsibility, and the Cadillac XT5 helps you manage it all with Electronic Precision Shift. This system places you in easy command of the advanced 9-speed automatic transmission and allows you to move from park to drive with a simple gesture.
However, exceptional power is only half of the story with the 2023 Cadillac XT5 — it achieves precise handling through a dynamic collection of innovations. The Chassis Damping Control responds every 5 milliseconds to instinctively adjust suspension to your driving and road conditions. The Chassis Damping Control helps you enjoy better handling and an improved ride. The Driver-Select Modes and the freedom of All-Wheel Drive allow you to fine-tune your driving experience based on Off-Road, Sport, or Touring calibrations. On the other hand, Front-Wheel Drive models offer the added confidence of Touring, Sport, and Snow/Ice driving modes.
Key Features
Cadillac Night Vision System
When equipped, Cadillac XT5's state-of-the-art Night Vision System gives you an entirely new perspective for night-time driving. This system empowers you to see objects well beyond your headlamps by presenting a thermal image. The thermal imaging system is activated when the headlights detect either large animals or pedestrians in front of the vehicle. Thanks to this unique perspective, you'll have greater freedom and confidence.
Visionary Lighting System
While the jewel-like headlamps offer an unmistakable, head-turning appeal, that's just the beginning. These standard headlamps are enhanced with IntelliBeam Auto High-Beam Assist. This attractive and advanced safety feature automatically toggles between low and high beams as vehicles approach. As an added bonus, the cornering lamps work to cast light into corners as you masterfully take them.
