What’s new for the 2024 Cadillac XT6?
For 2024, the XT6 gets a small price hike across the lineup, two new extra-cost exterior color options, and new accent packages on the Sport trim.
The XT6 wears Cadillac’s latest styling, though it’s not as complex here as on its contemporaries, with a sporty nose that flows into a traditional two-box shape that culminates with a dull tail end. The cabin is as roomy as it is dull.
The entry-level turbo-4 produces 235 hp, which this 4,400-pound SUV may push to its limits. The 3.6-liter V-6 in Premium Luxury and Sport models is a better choice, with a 9-speed automatic transmission, strong acceleration, and a refined feel. The optional all-wheel-drive system is less appealing thanks to its front-wheel-drive mode, which ostensibly saves fuel but requires deactivation by the tap of a button in snow or other slippery conditions.
With the turbo-4, the XT6 rates up to 23 mpg combined, while V-6 models with all-wheel drive drop to just 21 mpg.
The XT6 stretches nearly 199 inches long, which makes a big SUV with a spacious cabin in the first two rows. The third row is snug, but it’ll work for children. Cargo capacity behind row three is below average, but the huge cabin provides plenty of passenger and luggage space behind the first two rows.
Strong crash-test results are bolstered with plenty of advanced safety tech. Cadillac’s available Super Cruise system is the real charmer, which is expensive but enables limited hands-free driving on many highways. For a road warrior, it’s worth the cost.
How much does the 2024 Cadillac XT6 cost?
The XT6 starts at about $52,000, including the $1,395 destination charge, but we’d budget another $6,000 for the mid-tier Premium Luxury version. With all-wheel-drive and a few other upgrades, you can keep it at about $64,000.
Where is the 2024 Cadillac XT6 made?
In Spring Hill, Tennessee.
