This Cadillac nameplate entered the market for the 2020 model year as the brand’s first three-row crossover in this size class, aimed at buyers who wanted a more upscale, family-friendly SUV than the two-row midsize models. It arrived with a clean-sheet design and immediately established Cadillac’s modern SUV naming strategy, using the XT badge to align with the brand’s crossover lineup. The vehicle was positioned between the smaller XT5 and the larger Escalade, offering three-row seating in a more manageable footprint than Cadillac’s full-size flagship. Over its run, the nameplate was sold as a conventional gasoline-powered luxury SUV and was updated through the early 2020s as Cadillac’s crossover range evolved. Cadillac later retired the model after the 2025 model year, closing its single continuous production period.
