Dry good suv. Lots of pick up and go. If you want to add a trailer hitch, it’s all basically plug and play including the wiring

The new Cadillac XT5 rides and handles great. It has gotten better than expected MPG. It is a little short on special features that I had in a Nissan Rogue, however.

Too much road noise. Makes traveling by car uncomfortable on long road trips.

The auto stop/start cannot be disabled. Very annoying.

The wife and I bought a certified used XT5 premium luxury and this review is being posted after less than a week. It is a great looking vehicle, conservatively styled compared to some of its competition some of which I think are over styled and gimmicky. Having not had a lot of luxury type vehicles I think the interior is beautiful in the Sedona color with real wood accents. It is 3-1/2 years old with 24,000 miles but it looks and drives like a new car.. Ride quality is very good and it is quiet except over rough concrete roads but I think that is the case with almost all vehicles. While the seats cushions are not as soft as our previous Buick they are supportive and comfortable and I think they should be ok on a longer trip but have yet to find out. The Premium Luxury has many features standard which is one of reasons for choosing it over used non-luxury brands with similar options. There are simply many more of these vehicles available especially as they come off lease. Features include: Pano sunroof, great sounding 14 speaker Bose sound system, built in Nav, power folding mirrors and tailgate, all modern safety features, night time ambient lighting, memory seating, rain sensing wipers, cornering lamps and more. The infotainment system takes a while to figure out but we are getting there. It does not have 3D camera, HUD, or adaptive cruise control. Second row room is more than adequate and with them folded down it has 63 cubic feet of space. The V-6 has plenty of power and the 9 speed transmission is smooth once it adapts to your style of driving. The gas mileage around town so far is only abut 17 MPG. The best 25 mile average showing on the computer is 35 MPG. I will see if I can match that on a road trip when we take one. At least it takes regular gas and not premium like most of the 4 cyl turbos. A car getting 20 MPG using regular gas has around the same fuel cost as one getting 25 MPG using premium, at least comparing the price differential of the 2 grades around here. Buying certified from Cadillac means they add a year to the bumper to bumper warranty which goes to 5 years and the powertrain which goes to 7 years. JD Power also rates the XT5 as the most reliable mid size luxury SUV. In conclusion for around half the cost of a new one we are very happy with our purchase.
