Replaced an older Cadillac with this one. Big step up in cargo room; I'd like a little more power from the base engine.

2026 Cadillac XT5 review
Cadillac XT5: a class leader on the details. Illustrative review
8.8/10 OffLot expert score
The 2026 Cadillac XT5 sits near the top of its class. Standard driver-assist suite; easy to see out of and park. Engine gets loud under hard acceleration and third row (where offered) is for kids, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $46,000, it lines up with most direct rivals.

Owner reviews · 4.3 of 5 from 3 owners
The cargo room is the standout. My only gripe is the touchscreen climate controls, which I knew going in.
We cross-shopped three others and this won on cargo room. the touchscreen climate controls is the trade-off.
