What’s New for the 2024 Cadillac XT6
The XT6 is largely unchanged for the 2024 model year. The only news is the availability of two new colors, which are called “Midnight Sky” and “Emerald Lake.”
Design
The Cadillac XT6 has an upright design that reinforces its positioning as a more crossover-like alternative to the imposing Escalade. It maintains the broad, clean grille and slender LED headlights. Trims for the XT6 are Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport. The Luxury comes with 18-inch alloy wheels. Stepping up to the Premium Luxury and Sport adds 20-inch alloy wheels. The Sport features dark exterior accents and is also available with 21-inch wheels.
Powertrain
The base engine in the 2024 XT6 is a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder that makes 237 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The Premium Luxury and Sport trims come equipped with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that develops 310 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque. Power is routed through a 10-speed automatic transmission to front-wheel drive (FWD) or available all-wheel drive (AWD).
The Sport trim comes standard with AWD, as well as Brembo brakes and an adaptive sport suspension system that is also optional on the Premium Luxury trim.
The most efficient version of the XT6 is the turbo-four with FWD, returning 21 mpg city, 27 mpg highway, and 23 mpg combined. The turbo-four requires premium fuel. The least efficient configuration is the V6 with AWD, returning 18 mpg city, 25 mpg highway, and 21 mpg combined. However, the V6 can run on regular fuel.
Interior
Standard features on the XT6 include synthetic leather upholstery, heated front seats, remote start, and tri-zone automatic climate control. Available creature comforts include genuine leather upholstery, a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, and heated second-row seats.
With the second and third rows folded, the XT6 provides 78.7 cubic feet of cargo space. With the second row in use, there’s 43.1 cubic feet. With all seats in the upright position, the XT6 has 12.6 cubic feet of rear cargo space, accessed via a standard power liftgate. A hands-free power liftgate is optional.
Technology
The XT6 comes standard with an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also comes with a Wi-Fi hotspot, six USB ports, and an eight-speaker Bose stereo system.
The Premium Luxury trim adds wireless device charging and a 14-speaker Bose stereo. The Technology Package on the Premium Luxury and Sport trims includes a fully digital instrument panel, a digital rearview mirror camera system, and a 360-degree parking camera system.
Safety
Standard driver-assistance features include automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning, automatic high beams, front and rear parking sensors, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert.
Available safety tech includes rain-sensing wipers, a head-up display, reverse automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and GM’s Super Cruise highway driving system.
Pricing and Release Date
At the time of this writing, the 2024 Cadillac XT6 has a base MSRP of $50,190 for the Luxury trim. The Premium Luxury trim starts at $56,390 and the Sport trim starts at $61,690. The 2024 Cadillac XT6 is in dealerships now and is backed by a six-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty.
