Used 2023 Cadillac XT6 SUV Consumer Reviews
Escalade Smaller Alternative
Perfect size, not too big, not too small, roomy but not overwhelming. Very responsive handling and smooth engine transmission coordination. Beautiful front end styling and crisp side and rear looks. The more we drive it, the better we like it. We are getting over 27mpg on the road. it is a very comfortable car but still has nice handling and performance.

Nice vehicle for its segment but not a leader.
Very good vehicle overall but as Edmunds rated this vehicle perfectly. Its a very nice vehicle, sharp design inside & out but the competition offers more features for the same or less money. The 14 speaker Bose sound system is decent! Skip the luxury trim as its main detraction is the 2.0 turbo 4 cylinder. The 2.0 is significantly less powerful than the 3.6 and the gas mileage difference is not far off from each other. I would also skip the FWD version. I opted for the Sport trim which comes standard with a different AWD system, Brembo brakes & 3.6 V6. I was surprised at this price point that this vehicle exhibits cheap, hard plastics combined with nice leather and carbon fibre trim. I mean, what were these design engineers thinking? It seems like what GM is known for: Spend money where it counts but when it comes to saving money, they make it very obvious and pass it on to the consumer! I am also not a fan of the driver seat comfort in this vehicle. At this price point, this vehicle should have adjustable thigh support extensions, upper lumbar adjustments & adjustable bottom & side bolsters! I can never find a good seating position while driving because of these missing features. If you are seriously considering this model, do yourself a favor and spend extra time in the driver seat, play with all the positions and try to find a nice setting for yourself. My vehicle came with the optional 6 passenger seating for $800. A note to GM: Why does it cost $800 to go from the standard 7 passenger seating to 6 passenger? The Third row is useful in emergencies, if you travel with smaller passengers or children that sit in the back but anyone over 5ft will not be comfortable in the third row for extended travel times. Another annoying feature is that you cannot set the safety alert seat and parking sensor audio warning at the same time. You have to choose from either the safety alert seat warning OR the warning beeps. I did have experience with Cadillac in the past & previously had an XT5 ( XT5 & XT6 share a similar platform and interior bit with the only difference being the passenger capacity) The XT5 is a better vehicle overall, if you don't need the third row seating. I have also had several BMW's in the past as well that had features for less money that the XT6 is missing. For Ex: Heads up display, fully digital instrument cluster & a plethora of front seat adjustments for optimal comfort.

2023 Cadillac XT6
I went from a Chevrolet Tahoe to my now Cadillac XT6. I drove my Tahoe for 7 years, until it had 100k miles then I traded it in for the Cadillac. I loved my Tahoe! I thought I wanted a little bit of a smaller SUV, so I wanted to try the Cadillac XT6. I don’t feel near as safe in the Cadillac as I did in the Tahoe. I’m not sure why, I just don’t. I feel my Tahoe was fancier in the inside verses the Cadillac. Don’t get me wrong the Cadillac is a comfortable ride. I just feel being a “Cadillac” it could’ve been a little more fancier, and not so cheap looking inside the vehicle. The gas mileage is good on it though, and better than my Tahoe. I will continue driving it for a couple more years as long as it continues to run well, but I won’t buy another one. So far running wise it hasn’t given me any issues. All besides the brakes have been squeaky since I bought it, and I bought it with zero miles. I’m not sure what’s up with the squeaky breaks. It as of now has 21k miles.

Sport with Platinum Package-Perfect combo
Perfect blend of luxury and sporty-ness. We just downsized from our Escalade to an XT6 Sport with Platinum, Technology, & Driver Assist packages. I like that they have standard trims for all budgets and offer the packages and upgrades for those who want the extras. This car drives like a dream, so smooth. The sound system, technology, and upgraded finishes have made this our favorite vehicle so far. My husband loved the look of the sport and I prefer luxury so we added the platinum package for the best of both worlds. The suede ceiling and ultra view sunroof that extends to the middle row are my favorite features while his are the Brembo brakes and carbon fiber accents.

XT6 Blue Streak Sport Edition
The looks and quiet ride with easy access for 6 adults is a plus. With the far rear back seats down, plenty of room to carry larger loads when needed.
