Key Takeaways:

What Changes Have Been Made to the 2025 Cadillac XT5?
There are few updates to the XT5 for the new model year: This year there are only three trim levels—the Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport. The Platinum Package has been discontinued, with some of its features now offered as standalone options or smaller packages. Night vision is no longer offered nor is the Premium Luxury trim’s adaptive suspension feature.
What Engine Is Under the Hood of the 2025 Cadillac XT5?
You have two engine choices with the 2025 Cadillac XT5—the standard turbocharged four-cylinder engine generating 235 horsepower, or if you need more get up and go, a V6 engine that is an option on the Premium Luxury trim and is standard on the Sport trim. It generates 310 ponies.
The Sport trim is geared toward more trail time and features a heavy-duty cooling system, all-wheel drive with twin-clutch and active yaw control, damping suspension in real-time, and Brembo performance brakes upfront.
Front-wheel-drive XT5s with the turbocharged four-cylinder get 22 mpg/city, 29 mpg/highway, and 24 mpg overall. With the V-6, mileage drops slightly to 19 mpg/city, 26 mpg/highway, and 21 mpg combined. All-wheel drive lowers these numbers even further in both instances.
