2025 Cadillac XT5

If you need a luxury SUV to take on the challenges of family life, look no further than the 2025 Cadillac XT5. We take a closer look at the three trim configurations of this midsize offering from Caddy to help you understand your options.

1. Luxury

Kicking us off is the Luxury, an impressive five-seater SUV powered by a 235-horsepower 2.0-liter turbo engine, a nine-speed automatic transmission, and front-wheel drive. Caddy’s entry-level trim is as stunning to look at as the rest of the lineup, with its clean lines, automatic LED headlights, daytime running lights, and silver 18-inch multi-spoke wheels. A power liftgate provides easy access to the trunk, and aluminum roof rails give you options for carrying excess cargo.

Climb inside the Luxury, and you’re greeted with a plush Inteluxe-lined cabin. The comfortable bucket seats installed at the front are heated and power-adjustable in six different ways. At the heart of the infotainment system is an eight-inch diagonal touchscreen with wireless smartphone integration, natural voice recognition, and Wi-Fi hotspot compatibility. There’s also an eight-speaker Bose sound system, so you and your passengers can listen to every journey’s soundtrack in perfect clarity.

Assistive Technology

Every XT5, including the Luxury, comes with a comprehensive collection of driver-assist technologies. Standard features include cruise control, forward collision alert, lane departure warning, following distance indicator, and front pedestrian braking. You also have a rearview camera and front and rear park assist to help with reversing and parking.

2. Premium Luxury

Next is the Premium Luxury, which introduces more desirable features as standard, such as illuminating door handles, power-folding mirrors, a sunroof, and a hands-free liftgate. Leather lines the upgraded interior, including the eight-way adjustable front seats, which also feature a two-way power lumbar.

Drivers can now save their seat, mirror, and steering wheel settings. Rear cross-traffic, lane change, and blind-zone alerts are added to the suite of assistive technologies. An infotainment upgrade gives you a built-in navigation system and a 14-speaker Bose audio system.

3. Sport

A power boost sees the Sport become the highest-performing XT5 of all. Caddy’s top trim has a 3.6-liter V6 powering all four wheels, which pushes the ponies to 310 horsepower and torque to 271 pound-feet. To complement this increase in power, the Sport also gains a heavy-duty cooling system, front Brembo performance brakes, and a specially tuned suspension with adaptive dampers to smooth out every ride.

The Sport also boasts gloss black roof rails and a Pearl Nickel finish on the wheels, which lend the exterior a sportier appearance.

Every XT5 trim is a shining example of midsize luxury and elegance. To find your perfect XT5, contact us or stop by Schepel Cadillac in Merrillville, IN, and check out the full range today.
