Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Cadillac has made only a few minor changes to the XT4 for 2021, starting with the base Luxury trim, which receives a new standard power rear liftgate and the option of leather upholstery. An optional Driver Awareness package that includes automatic high-beam headlamps and lane-keeping assist has also been added to the Luxury trim.

Pros
Stylish exterior, handsome interior design, spacious cabin.

Cons
Down-market interior materials, rough ride, loud engine note.

Pros
Roomy seating and cargo area
Infotainment system is quick and sharp-looking

Cons
Ride is busy for a luxury SUV
Lots of engine and road noise
Some controls are confusing to use
Luxury features you'd expect to be standard are optional

The 2020 Cadillac XT4 ranked #7 in Luxury Subcompact SUVs. Currently the Cadillac XT4 has a score of 7.0 out of 10 which is based on our evaluation of 17 pieces of research and data elements using various sources.

Pros
Outstanding rear-seat legroom
Lots of cargo space behind rear seats

Cons
Awkward infotainment controls
Fair amount of road and engine noise
Mixed reviews on steering and brake systems

Available on the mid- and upper-level EX and SX Telluride trims, the Nightfall Edition package gives the SUV altogether darker vibe in keeping with the industry's various blacked-out "night edition" models. The Telluride's roof rails, skid plates, front bumper air ducts, and logos have all been painted black. A black-painted grille features an eye-catching pattern unique to the Nightfall Edition, and Kia tops it all off with unique 20-inch black wheels and LED headlamps and fog lamps with black inner bezels.
Even though every Nightfall Edition wears the darkened exterior trim, customers can order it with paint in shades of white, silver, gray, dark red, or dark green.
