Best SUV

Compare to GLK 350 and Audi Q5, this car is much better, very comfortable, very quiet, direct inject, not like others has a turbo, turbo makes bumpy feel when you stuck in the city, with Aisin 8 speed transmission, when it change gear, it is much better than the previous SRX, with the platinum version, you can change to AWD or FWD at any time, this car has a new technology called twin clutch, which it can delivery 100% power to all wheels when it is on AWD.

Sexy and Sophisticated Car

I test drove many cars this time around including the Mercedes ML, Lexus RX, Toyota Highlander, Ranger Rover. Although the Lexus was my favorite overall, the dealership wouldn't work with me on the numbers. Plus, the XT5 feels roomier in the back seat for my growing 10 yr old twins.

Great American Car

While I have only owned the XT5 for a week. I couldn't be happier. I've been driving mercedes and BMW for the last 20 years, but decided to at lest check out the XT5. Really glad I did!

Great SUV for the value

We like all of the features and styling especially the interior. We do not like the Auto/ Stop feature but are starting to get used to it. Wish there was a program available to shut it off like there has been on some previous models. The ride and the lack of road noise is very enjoyable.

New 2017 XT5

CUE system not intuitive and somewhat difficult to learn. Vehicle shut off at park a nuisance and cannot be overridden which is unfortunate.

2017 XT5

I was concerned about buying a new model. Those fears are long gone. Purchased my XT in April of 2016. I use my XT 5 in my business and have logged almost 20,000 miles as of today! The car is more comfortable, less blind spots and better looking to the XRS vehicles that I have driven before. Love the car and expect to buy another one in April of 2018 just before hitting 50,000 miles! The dealership, DeKalb Motors is outstanding in providing oil changes and keeping up on recalls!

3rd Cadillac SUV

I had a 2010 SRX, a 2014 SRX and my current 2017 XT5. This new 2017 is by far the best of the bunch. All three were very good. The only problem was with the lack of power in the 2010 SRX.
