Powertrain Specs and MPG
The XT4 carries over with its 235-horsepower, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that makes 258 pounds-feet of torque. It’s paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available. FWD variants are EPA-rated at 24/29/26 mpg city/highway/combined; AWD versions drop slightly to 23/28/25 mpg.
Pricing and Availability
The 2025 Cadillac XT4 is available now at dealerships. The Premium Luxury starts at $41,990 and the Sport at $42,790 (all prices include a $1,195 destination charge). AWD adds $2,500.
Trim Levels
The Premium Luxury trim includes standard 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery and a 33-inch curved LED infotainment display with Google Built-In, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a rotary controller to navigate the system. There are also four USB ports, wireless charging and a 5G Wi-Fi hot spot.
For those looking for a more performance-oriented setup, the Sport trim builds on the Premium Luxury’s features and adds Cadillac’s active sport suspension with continuous damping control, which adjusts in real time to road conditions. The Sport trim’s exterior includes darkened accents, and inside, it offers synthetic leather seating, carbon-fiber or wood trim, and ambient lighting.
New for 2025, both trims now benefit from the Active Safety Package, which includes adaptive cruise control, enhanced automatic emergency braking and a 360-degree camera system. Additionally, it features lane departure steering assist, lane departure warning, reverse automatic braking, traffic sign recognition, rear pedestrian alert, intersection automatic emergency braking and side bicyclist alert. Additional standard safety tech includes forward collision warning, GM’s Safety Alert Seat (which vibrates the sides of the driver seat if there might be a potential collision), rear parking sensors, rear cross-traffic alert and blind spot intervention.
Both trims come with a two-year OnStar Safety & Security plan, which includes automatic crash response and other emergency assistance features.
