Cadillac has revealed an assortment of new details about the redesigned XT5 in China. It’s a major leap forward and one that makes the US-spec model feel ancient.

var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:[]};
adpushup.que.push(function() {
if (adpushup.config.platform !== “DESKTOP”){
adpushup.triggerAd(“4d84e4c9-9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a”);
}
else{

adpushup.triggerAd(“6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657”);
} });

Starting outside, there’s a “very American” design with a wide grille that is flanked by split lighting units. Cadillac went on to say the model has adaptive anti-glare high-beams that automatically avoid pedestrians as well as oncoming vehicles.

Moving down the sides, we can see taut bodywork and a ‘floating’ roof. They’re joined by 20- or 21-inch wheels, which can be backed up by a six-piston Brembo braking system with red calipers.

}

} });

The rear end has a heavily stylized hands-free power liftgate with an integrated spoiler. The model also has a dual exhaust system and vertical taillights that are connected by a chrome bar.

Like most redesigned models, the XT5 is larger than its predecessor. Length is up 2.9 inches (75 mm) to 192.4 inches (4,888 mm), while width grows 2.1 inches (54 mm) to come in at 77.1 inches (1,957 mm). The model also has 6.2 inches (158 mm) of ground clearance, which is an increase of nearly an inch (22 mm).

The interior draws inspiration from the Lyriq and features a 33-inch curved display as well as a 126 color ambient lighting system. They’re joined by semi-aniline leather seats, which feature thicker padding as well as backrests that adjust 23° front and 5° rear.

Other highlights include a panoramic sunroof, a floating center console, and an air-cooled 15W wireless smartphone charger. They’re joined by wood and aluminum trim as well as a crystal-like knob that features a 3D Cadillac shield motif.

Buyers will also find 24 storage compartments, a 15-speaker AKG audio system, and a next-generation digital rearview mirror with a 9.3-inch display. The latter has a higher resolution as well as a 25% larger field of view.

Cadillac didn’t release many performance specs, but confirmed all XT5s are equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine and a 48V mild-hybrid system. They’re joined by a nine-speed automatic transmission and China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has previously revealed the crossover has 227 hp (169 kW / 230 PS).

The company didn’t say much else about the model, but confirmed a twin-clutch all-wheel drive system that can send 100% of rear power to either wheel. The XT5 also has an adaptive damping suspension that adjusts 100 times per second to deliver a comfortable ride.

Speaking of technology, there are 22 active safety features including adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and automatic emergency braking. Buyers will also find rear-cross traffic alert, side blind zone warning, and lane departure warning.

Pricing starts at ¥279,900 ($39,458) and climbs to ¥339,900 ($47,917) for the Platinum variant.
