Cadillac goes small. I know, for a lot of people, that’s a bad thing to read. Remember when Caddy put out the Catera and the Cimarron" Yeah, those weren’t just bad cars, they were pathetic Cadillacs. Not so with the XT4, an all-new, compact SUV fitted for the next-gen of luxury customers.
It looks like fairly recently, someone, somewhere within the confines of the Cadillac office in New York City (did you know they were based there") realized that simply telling people you’re the “standard of the world” is just the start. You can’t just say it, you have to do it. And, thankfully, Caddy seems to be doing it these days.
It’s hard to argue with rides like V-Series CTSs and stuff like that, and with everyone obligated to make a whole range of SUVs, Caddy has finally grabbed the last niche in that world too. The XT4 was ushered into existence by a team of young designers, a smooth move since “the young” are the heart of the XT4?s target demographic. The XT4 (although a bland and hopeless name) is part of Cadillac?s new ?Y? trim strategy of Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport models, said to offer distinctive styling and trim finishes.
