2019 Cadillac XT4 Expert Review
Reviewed by Staff Writer
Cadillac's new entry-level luxury crossover is on its way to compete in an increasingly competitive class. Called the XT4, Cadillac's compact CUV will slot in below the XT5 to give buyers another sub-$40,000 option besides the very small but fun-to-drive ATS sedan and coupe. The XT4 carries a starting price of $35,790, and is available with front- and all-wheel drive.
The XT4 is powered by a 237-hp turbo-four with 258 lb-ft of torque and use a nine-speed automatic. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility will be offered in an interior that uses the latest version of Cadillac's CUE infotainment system. LED headlights are standard, and the XTS offers a full suite of active safety tech with emergency automatic braking. Eighteen-inch wheels are standard, with 20s available.
With so much of Cadillac's current sales relying on the XT5, having another crossover in the fleet should help the automaker balance out its portfolio.
