Summary
Brand new for 2020 comes the Cadillac XT6, a luxury midsize SUV with a spacious interior and dependable ride. Comfortably seating up to seven passengers, this vehicle is an excellent option for families looking to upgrade their everyday commute. While the Cadillac XT6 doesn't offer as impressive a fuel economy as some of its rivals, such as the Acura MDX, it delivers an undeniably smooth ride that doesn't feel underpowered whether you're driving in the city or on the highway. Drivers have the option to choose between two trims: Premium Luxury and Sport.
Safety
Perfect for those who place a strong emphasis on safety, the 2020 Cadillac XT6 comes standard with a wide range of safety and advanced driver assistance features. Some of these, such as lane departure warning, rearview camera and automatic emergency braking, are among those features usually found in other luxury midsize SUVs. However, the Cadillac XT6 exceeds expectations, coming standard with a Teen Driver system, which allows you to set speed and volume limits for younger drivers.
Interior
The Cadillac XT6 is designed with passengers in mind. The well-built cabin provides ample space with a comfortable feel, allowing occupants to enjoy their ride to the fullest. While some consumers note that the materials found in the interior of the Cadillac XT6 aren't as flashy as those in other luxury options, it's certainly still a high-end ride. The interior can be upgraded to include second-row captain's chairs, dropping the overall capacity to six passengers but improving comfort exceptionally.
Technology
As the luxury SUV is all-new for 2020, the Cadillac XT6 is jam-packed with technological features. Both trims come standard with an 8-inch touchscreen, eight-speaker Bose audio system, Wi-Fi hot spot, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Cadillac User Experience, or CUE, infotainment system is relatively simple to operate, responding quickly to inputs and offering secondary knobs for alternative operation. Families can easily upgrade their SUV to include a rear-seat entertainment system which is perfect for keeping children happy on long-distance road trips.
Space
It's difficult to find another option that can best the Cadillac XT6 when it comes to overall cargo capacity. With 78.7 cubic feet of space behind the front seats, the Cadillac XT6 is one of the best choices in the luxury midsize SUV class. This max cargo capacity makes it easy to transport large hauls of groceries home or sports equipment to and from practices. Taller passengers will be pleased to sit just about anywhere in the Cadillac XT6 thanks to the ample leg-and headroom, making it easy to get in and out of even the rearmost seats.
Comfort
Whether you choose the Premium Luxury or Sport, all models of the Cadillac XT6 come with a 310-horsepower V6 engine with nine-speed automatic transmission. Although you won't feel underwhelmed when merging on the highway, some drivers claim that the engine's performance is less inspiring than those offered by rival cars. While the standard ride feels smooth over just about any surface, the Sport trim features an adaptive damping performance suspension system to add further cushioning and precision to match changing road conditions.
