Found the perfect fit !
We test drive the Lincoln Aviator and found the engine auto off/ on very jerky and the shift controls in a very odd position. It steered bulky compared to the Cadillac xt5. The aviator did have a little more room in the cargo area , but the rear passenger space looks and felt like and after thought . The XT5 feels and handles like what you expect from Cadillac. The interior just blew us away with its high end design. Controls are super friendly and the wireless connect from phone to car is fantastic! We love our XT5 luxury premium. And it comes at a a much less premium price than the aviator . When I factor in design, cost, city and highway handling as well as the high tech safety features such as blind spot , lane check and anti collision braking and warning . Lastly let’s not forget the “ teenage driver speed control” I personally rate the XT5 a very strong 9 out of 10 !
XT5CadExperience
Be sure you know all the options you want before going to a dealer. I knew I wanted all safety options I desired and did an on-line search for the Cadillac filling that requirement. I found the model, the top of the line Xt5 that filled those requirements. It had lane alert, lane change warning, lane hold when in cruise, and both front and rear blind side alerts. I have already experienced a warning of a vehicle approaching me from the front who had crossed the lane line. The heads-up display really amplified this warning. I am pleased with the electronic steering and braking, which is faster response than hydraulics.

Excellent so far
Traded in my basic 2019 XTS for the 2021 Premium Luxury model 6 cyl awd. Much easier getting in and out of the vehicle than the XTS. I really like sitting up higher and since I’m getting older, with the 360 camera i don’t have to strain my neck to be sure there’s no obstacles around. It drives and rides just as nice as the car. I’m well pleased with it and look forward to driving it for many years. I would recommend this vehicle. The models below don’t show the 6 cyl and which is what I bought.

My first XT5
Where do I start? The Cadillac XT5 is a reasonably priced midsize SUV with plenty of tech, especially in the technology package. The rearview camera (mirror) was the first surprise during my test drive. Everything from the adaptive cruise, parking and lane alerts to the straightforward phone integrations puts me at ease. I feel connected to my XT5 and my surroundings! Though storage for small items is lacking, especially in the driver and passenger space, I find that my XT5 offers ample headroom and legroom in both the front and rear. The turbocharged 4 cylinder delivers adequate acceleration, but I recommend the V-6 unless a few extra miles make a difference to you. I like this car and will probably comment more after I've driven it for six months!

Nice mid priced luxury SUV
Handles well, plenty of power for what it's designed for (V-6). Nice layout. I bought this for a good price for a mid size luxury SUV and it has most of the safety features I was looking for. I highly recommend the V-6 rather than the 4 cylinder. You don't lose that much mileage, can use regular gas rather than the required premium in the 4 cylinder, and it has more horsepower. Options, if you can get them with all the chip shortages, and availability of models are pretty good. I found it comfortable, good visibility, and a good bargain for the price.

Love it!
I bought a 2022 XT5 several months ago. I’m very satisfied. It’s a pleasure to drive and has all the amenities. I have the Premium Luxury Trim. The V6 is very peppy, transmission is very smooth. I have no regrets. Highly recommend the XT5.

Great SUV
Traded in my 2014 XTS luxury and couldn’t be more happy with this SUV. Got the Garnet metallic and I just love the color. Got the 3.6L AWD and it runs like a champ.

A lot better than the junk 4 cyl in the new RX350
Love this car Always bought Lexus Rx until they stopped the V-6 The 2023 Rx has a crappy 4Cyl that takes premium fuel I bought the sport model and love it Never thought I would praise a GM vehicle. I have 9000 miles on it already and would never go back to the Lexus. The options are much better. For example the heated steering wheel heats all around where the Lexus only heat in the center. The rear view camera is far superior I could go on and on Very satisfied

Love it!
Very comfortable ride. Lots of leg room. Pleasant smooth ride experience. Good visibility of the road. Love the blind spot tech & park assist. Well equipped tech package with the prem luxury, mid level model. Touchscreen is easy to use & you can navigate it with some console buttons /knobs too. Impressive cargo space. It has exceeded my expectations.

Keep looking, these things aren't reliable
Was delivered to the dealership with a couple of scuffs at the front and rear. In less than 60 days with 469 miles on the odometer the AC quits cooling. Not so roomy interior for $57k

Sterling 2500 mile road trip
2500 miles of Comfort and quiet from Detroit to Hilton Head. The vehicle performed flawlessly the entire trip on flat roads, mountain roads and around town. Plenty of space for golf clubs and luggage not to mention 4 adult passengers. Averaged 25.5 miles for the entire trip which included highway driving to and from plus 2 weeks of local driving and sightseeing. Couldn’t be happier with the vehicle.

Smooth ride
Everything very nice, however there is no headroom in the back seat, if you're taller than 5'8. Forget it.
Awesome

None to be had
Beautiful car, beautiful ride. Unfortunately unless you can afford a loaded one there were none available within 1,000 miles.
Bad CADDY
We have owned many cadillacs from the dts to xt5. Never had problems until 2021. Bought a new xt5 platinum and had nothing but problems. Had to have gm engineer come fix it, rear view went bad, had to put in new coaxial, wouldn't work, ordered another part. While it was in garage we made a big mistake, got tired of 2021 being in garage all the time with only 600 miles and bought a 2022 xt5, at 200 miles alerts started from onstar engine and transmission, wouldn't shift out of 1st gear. It had 10 alerts and wouldn't shift out of 1st, not to mention Electric drive and seal in axle leaked. At 600 miles was back in garage for three weeks with another engineer. We have had our fill of cadillacs.

Don’t buy you will be sorry
Worst vehicle I have ever owned. Android auto is the worst system going. It doesn’t work properly. Problems trying to hook up 2 phones. If my husband is on his phone and I have to leave, the system will connect his phone and instead of mine. I can hear his conversation all the way down the street. When I get out of range, the system drops his call and he has to make another call. The system will not connect my phone until I turn off the car. I have to buy onstar for a minimum of $400 a year in order to get map updates, or you have to purchase an sd card for $150 or more each year. Every time I start the car I get a message to contact nstar to purchase. This message stays on the screen until I clear it. If I don’t clear the message it covers up the icons that are available to use. Customer service for gm and onstar will tell you that it is what it is. Can’t help you. You are being forced to purchase items that you do not want in order to get things to work properly. These fees are not one time fees, they are every year which will increase every year. I regret buying this car and I will never buy a gm or Cadillac ever again. Their operating systems are the worst ever.
Great SUV
This is my 3rd Cadillac XT5. They are great cars and I would recommend it to anyone.
Disappointed!
After only 2,500 the ac started whining terribly. I took it to Ben Mynatt in Concord, NC to have repaired, after two tries and a new compressor, the ac still whines. I like the vehicle, but I am very disappointed in the fact that a brand new off the show room floor vehicle has this issue and disappointed at the service I received at Ben Mynatt in Concord, NC. I plan to escalate the issue to GM.

Smoother Ride
I leased a 2020 XT5 and it was a lovely car but had a very rough ride. The 2023 has a smoother ride and I glad my lease needed to be renewed with a new version so I could experience the ride I expected from a Cadillac.

Need to improve the driver seat settings. The buttons have limited range/movement. The middle storage box is very, very small. The air vents are limited and the cold air is not cold.

made it to the big time
the car is very good in most things so far, 2 issues 1 1 should either offer 6 cylinder at no charge, or make a 4 cylinder on regular gas 2 electric shifter is horrible. constantly going into Nor M. Bypassing D. other transmission levers were more accurate in finding each gear.
