With a naturally-aspirated 3.6-litre V6 powerhouse fused to
a 9-speed automatic transmission, the all-new 2020 Cadillac XT6 is the real
deal. Cadillac isn't the most popular car brand or quick call when
making a choice for a daily driver or regular SUV, however, the brand
aims to introduce to the market, a reliable and capable high-level and
heavy-duty compact crossover-SUV to satisfy the yearnings of customers
with the XT6. It was unveiled at 2019 Detroit Motor Show in the United States.

The XT6 is split between two trim levels that appear to be marketed as
different rather than one being better. The first is redundantly called
Premium Luxury. A chrome grille and trim, red taillights and unique
20-inch wheels distinguish it as such from the outside, while wood trim
covers the inside.
The second is Sport, and black trim replaces the
chrome, red taillights are swapped for clear, and carbon fiber supplants
the wood inside. It has different 20-inch wheels as well as optional
21-inch pieces. The Sport gets mechanical tweaks, too, including
continuously adjustable shocks and a standard all-wheel-drive system
with yaw control.
