Engine/Performance

The 2023 Cadillac XT5 is a smooth sailor on the highway thanks to Chassis Damping Control. This advanced system adjusts the SUV's suspension to improve the ride quality. Selectable Drive Modes allow you to adjust how the SUV performs on different surfaces. There's more for sport, snow, touring, and off-road.

Cadillac has built two powertrains for this compact SUV, and your trim choice will determine the engine type. This includes a 2.0-liter engine that's turbocharged for maximum output and speedy acceleration. This four-cylinder engine makes 235 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. If you're not into four-cylinder engines, then buyers can opt for the brand's 3.6-liter V6. This engine makes up to 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque.

The SUV's Active Fuel Management helps with conserving fuel. All of the engine's power is transmitted through a responsive nine-speed automatic transmission.

Brembo performance brakes provide excellent stopping power even at fairly fast speeds. In addition, Cadillac offers all-wheel drive to further enhance the SUV's level of traction. Steering is fairly accurate, and you'll get a good view of the highway via 20-inch wheels.
