Is This The Caddy You've Been Waiting For? | 2020 Cadillac XT6

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Cadillac shoppers have been demanding a 3-row crossover that’s roomy but easier to park than an Escalade. Is the XT6 that crossover? In a nutshell: yes and no. It’s certainly the Cadillac of GM’s crossover lineup and the interior is well crafted and comfortable, but the premium price tag may be hard for some shoppers to accept.

    The XT6 is really pretty and practical, but that’s about all it has going for it as far as I’m concerned. Quality doesn’t measure up to the price tag, the 400 badge is less than meaningless, and it’s FWD in a sea of RWD competitors. It doesn’t bring anything new to the game. It’s not off-road capable, it’s not terribly sporty, and it’s not extra comfortable comfortable. It’s very average and average just doesn’t do in today’s world

    The problem with having too many brands is the inability to price this competitively, particularly given the proliferation of once "premium" features downmarket. Even if you were to shop purely within the GM portfolio, there's absolutely no reason to buy one of these over the Enclave Avenir. In typical GM fashion they'll probably lease this out at MDX pricing to get any sort of meaningful volume.

    Cadillacs are supposed to have full sized seats. For a Cadillac to have a seat bottom with a short ledge is completely counter to what a Cadillac should be no matter the characteristics the company might be targeting. In person the Aviator is very beautiful and though I love Cadillacs I’d say that its real presence takes up a place in a driveway more regally than the Xt6. Lincoln’s seats are most likely going to become hallmarks for the brand and expected in all of Lincoln’s vehicles eventually in contrast. I have a feeling that Ford is waiting to send Alex an Aviator until they’re confident that they’re sending a product produced after they correct some known production problems with their new plant. I have a feeling that there will be a software update for the transmission and then they’ll send Alex an Aviator to review. Hope that goads Lincoln into sending you one soon. Good luck Alex

    I think you are being far too kind to this car. It's a warmed-over GMC being rushed to fill a hole in Cadillac's lineup. The front seats are far below the competition in adjustability, there's only basic adaptive cruise-control rather than SuperCruise, the gauge cluster and engine are from the Chevrolet parts bin, and the cargo room is sub-standard. I would buy a Telluride in heartbeat before buying this car, to say nothing of the more premium brands. We actually owned a 2004 SRX and even that car was less premium than it could have been, but it was unique in terms of capabilities and dimensions at the time. There's far superior competition now.

    The XT5 and XT6 are almost the same size (considering they are on the same platform). The XT6 is slightly longer with a more upright rear end to accommodate the third row. That 400 badging is for GM's primary market... China. In China, big displacement and high cylinder count is socially frowned upon, so instead they advertise torque in the units China uses. This way whether its a 2.0 turbo inline 4 or a 3.6 v6, people don't get shamed for having a bigger engine. This is also why volvo's top engine is a turbocharged, supercharged inline 4 with a plug in hybrid. They refuse to make a bigger engine since volvo is now Chinese. On the note of that engine, it needs to go, period. The 3.6 was never a good engine, its revs are way too high and its power is way too late in the band. They need to hurry up and switch over to the 2.7 inline 4 and make a 3.9 inline 6 based on the same platform and ditch the v6 and even the 6.2 v8. Also the V6 in the traverse and enclave is a modified version from the main one. It has larger valves, which get it less fuel efficiency, but much more lower end torque. The XT6 is also on the shorter wheelbase for the C1XX platform, vs the traverse and enclave, which are on the long wheel base. This give those two room for the extra third row seat, while this shares many dimensions with the acadia The midsize pickups also have their own version, but I can't remember what is different about it. This platform is not suited for luxury vehicle use, the drivetrain is blah, fwd is blah, the interior is blah. It works great for a 30,000 dollar traverse, not so much for a 75,000 dollar XT6. They need to take the CT6 platform and turn it into a CUV. Give us some rear wheel drive, a 2.7 turbo or a V8, that fine finish the CT6 has ect. The XT5 and XT4 need the same upgrade to their respective RWD car platforms since like you said, most CUV's are lifted wagons with higher rooflines.

    Exterior looks good. I dig it. Looks way better in person..especially with the sport taillights. However, I don't like the interior. I don't like it on the wonky looking xt5 and I don't like it carried over on the xt6. It already looks dated to me. Wished they would have taken a bigger styling risk with the interior.

Also the first gear is way to aggressive. I don’t understand why I can’t start in second gear. Honda vehicle allow you to start in second gear. Same with my Camaro don’t know why they won’t allow me to start in 2nd gear. Also unlike my Camaro which can go into V4 mode at 90-100mph sometimes, the highest speed the Acadia would manage with V4 was around 50mph I think with the car loaded. I never saw it turn on above 70 for sure. Seems kinda useless tbh.

I think the new Escalade's interior will eventually make it down to the XT6. Though the Koreans have definitely changed the game i do like XT6, because it has its own identity it looks like no other vehicle inside in out. Hyundai and Kiaare looking amazing at a great value but copy the best of all the other automakers while adding there own flare to it. Either way i hope Ford and GM would focus on being the best not mediocre. Go USA go...
