Wrapped in Radiant Red Tintcoat, the Cadillac XT4 Sport AWD satisfies its clientele easily as the XT4 is ready to tackle just about any task. From grocery shopping to commuting, the XT4 really fulfills alot of needs and wants on consumers’ lists. Comfort, design and overall stature still shine as Cadillac has a big reputation to keep up with.
Since the elimination of Pontiac and their ever popular performance style in GM’s fleet, Cadillac has had no choice but to pick up the slack and provide an array of vehicles to consumers, keeping in mind, price, quality and demand are all at the fore-front. The XT4 is no different. It fulfills a great size and price checkmark while also attaining the wow factor Cadillac buyers demand. As its smallest SUV and one that competes with both BMW, Mercedes, Genesis and Volvo, the XT4 is no slouch and certainly stands out.
Powering the XT4 is a 2.0L turbocharged engine producing 235 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, which confirms getting up and going is not a problem while gas mileage exceeds expectations. Paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission that is quiet and smooth, we see an easy win over less expensive brands and their CVT utilization. The XT4 lineup boasts 3 different models with Luxury, Premium Luxury and Sport, all of which have something for everyone depending on your needs in the appearance/usage department.
Cadillac has a lot to be proud of as they have brought great value to vehicles in today’s market. With their continuous hurdles of keeping General Motors consumers happy, Cadillac continues to deliver. And in typical Cadillac tradition, making them your own with an endless list of options is just another way to ensure you have the only one in town. This one deserves a test drive for sure and good work Cadillac on what hopes to be a long lasting model in the fleet.
