2017 XT5

I had a 2014 SRX which I liked a lot. I bought the XT5 for design and more bells and whistles. But I do not like the engine stopping when you come to a complete stop. I have found by pumping the brakes it sometimes does not shut down the engine.I only have 300 miles so I really cant judge the reliability.

Our new XT5

Bought 2010 new, loved it except the 3.0 engine. Luxury model while with tan interior. Just sold that car and bought a 2017 XT5 Luxury model White with Tan interior. Engine is great with plenty of power fit and finish is perfect. I was a little disappointed that Cadillac trimmed a few options from the luxury model I purchased before like: no cd player, sill plates no longer have a light in them, there is no longer a horizontal interior dash trim light, tan interior no longer offered in tan headliner with tan carpet only in black. Front seats need a little more attention to front bottom bolsters, (need more padding). Except for the dashboard the whole interior seemed a little cheaper.. I do not like the steering wheel option of leather wrapped heated the 2010 had a wood/leather steering wheel I liked more. I have to save the car drives great, seems to be quieter, same gas millage even though it has a bigger engine, Bose system sounds great, (I hate it has no built in cd),

Great Value

My XT5 is a fantastic car. It is comfortable to get in and out of while not a truck. I am 72 and comfort is important. I get lots of looks from people with its styling . The smart screen was impressive and everything is hands free.It drives like a much smaller car while having the feel of a full size SUV under you. The basic model comes with all the bells and whistles that are add on's for many other cars. It is a great value.

Gorgeous car

A very well thought out vehicle . Exterior and interior design are excellent. Car drives smoothly. No boxy SUV feel. A luxury car that takes regular gas. Right up there with BMW ,Mercedes etc

Great Highway and City Driver

Drove it non-stop at maximum speeds out of the showroom for 750 miles to Florida. The quiet ride, handling, interior comfort, special features like automatic start-stop, power and gas mileage made the trip most enjoyable. I recommend this car to everyone. This is a special vehicle! It is my first Cadillac purchase. Also have a 2014 E350 Mercedes Blue Tec, another great car.
