2020 Cadillac XT6 - Review & Road Test

- The Cadillac XT6 sports three rows in all its midsize-ness. It rides on the same platform as the GMC Acadia and the Chevrolet Blazer, only this is the luxurious version of those. Does it live up to all that, Micah Muzio? Well, watch here and find out.

Congrats, you've bought a Blazer! For $75,000.
No. A GMC Acadia. That one can come with 3 rows.
Not really Acadia. More like a traverse
Lol @all comments
R L like tiff hy q
Nah, it’s a $75,000 Acadia. It’s the same size and everything. Traverse is larger (seats 8 max). GM is still “badge engineering” to this day, they’re just more clever at disguising it.
The interior would have been great if this was released in 2014. The Lincoln aviator and Hyundai palisade ( yes I know they don’t compete with each other) both have better looking interiors
Aviator, definitely, but the Palisade ehh. Way too plasticky
ken060693 and reliability is still trash no matter wat this paid off magazines say
Definitely a Palisade is more nice inside and better quality. Cadillac (GM) needs to take note.
ken060693 I haven’t gotten the chance to sit in one but judging from reviews and the photos it looks pretty premium especially the ones with diamond stitching on the door panels
@@googleaccount6931 certainly looks premium.
The XT6 interior is a massive disappointment, dont get me wrong.
But people on here are really over hyping the Palisade. I've been in the Palisade, Teluride, and XT6. The XT6 interior materials are better. But they're not $20k better
I don’t think anyone’s surprised that a GM has a dumpster fire of an interior
Joseph Whiskey Beale what exactly makes it a dumpster fire? May not be best in class or anything but looks fine to me. You just being over dramatic for the purpose of being over dramatic?
Alan Bowers did you not watch the video? he LITERALLY named every thing wrong and here you are asking for exactly what’s wrong with the interior...
Littleathquakes I suppose I just don’t equate those small issues to amount to a dumpster fire. Not great but it’s still a decently nice interior all things considered. I have low standards though, and don’t necessarily value luxury as much as the next person.
You probably wouldn’t equate it even if there were flaming trash exiting as he opened the door, too bad for GM fanboys.
Joseph Whiskey Beale definitely too bad for GM fanboys. I’m not one of them though, so hurl those insults elsewhere. I prefer Ford in the context of preferences towards the Big 3.
Torque steer? Welcome to 1985. Only Cadillac could pull that off with an all wheel drive vehicle
I believe it has the ability to alternate. A mode switch allows constant front wheel drive. Then you can switch to all wheel drive if needed. It actually offers benefits although slight, in fuel economy and possibly less drive train wear.
This car is a joke when the Aviator exists.
It's ridiculous when it needs to compete with the aviator
100%.
That's not what sales say 🤷♂️
CAMARO _KYLE Fleet sales. Wholesale vs retail.
@@richardleston5237 xt6 doesnt have fleet sales
Not competitive with the Aviator.
I had high hopes for this. Really great styling but that cheap interior is just outrageous for 74,000.
It’s 74k???? Good lord, I’d give it $54 on a good day. True, it is a looker just a shame the interior looks like 2015.
Same, when I saw this at the Detroit Auto Show in January, my friends and I were like "Wow, even being a total mom car, this looks awesome!" And now I'm just left with a bad taste in my mouth seeing just how poorly put together the interior is. Like JFC it is not hard to make good interior clips.
Doesn't bode well for this Caddy, when a 46K Kia has a nicer interior!
John Holst my 19 Hyundai Santa Fe Ultimate (fully loaded) has a better interior and more bells and whistles. It was $38,000 out the door with a wrap warranty. GM interiors suck!
@@txhorn10 Good for you! I love the Santa Fe! I agree. It certainly has a nicer design, but the Caddy does use more soft touch materials and leather. This XT6 is no luxury SUV though!
Oh, and Micah is awesome.
How awesome is he?
WAY TOO AWESOME. He's the benchmark for it.
Ryan Frisby Dang. My ego is inflating at a dangerous rate. 😁 Thanks, Ryan!
...And just after I promised god I'd stop crushing on guys, Micah shows up on my feed. #christianfail
@@keaganwadle5909 lol.
No problem. Can’t wait for the new Micah Drives lol
Lmaaoo this whole video is a middle finger to Cadillac fanboys bitching about the aviators quality issues. GM quality still non-existent these days I see.
As always, Awesome video Micah! It's not just a car review you doing. At the same time, you keep the viewer entertained with a smile.
This vehicle is going to appeal to people who don't do their homework.
AR B no studing no working buy cadillac dream life
I want it
To people who are sold on just the badge alone. Being able to say “I drive a luxury car” instead of “I got a good deal on a good car.” Big difference in the two.
@@ATRichard to people? Are u trying to say..? To the people? Or two people?
mold man the great I’m saying only people who care about the badge and saying “I bought a luxury car”, as Micah also briefly mentioned at the end of the video, will take this seriously vs. competitors like the Aviator, XC90, even downmarket players like high trims of the Palisade/Telluride.
The interior quality is so embarrassing!
How a $35,000 Hyundai Palisade, Toyota Highlander, Subaru Ascent, Honda Pilot, and Kia Telluride creates a better interior than a $75,000 Cadillac is beyond me.
Dreamy a $35k version of those cars won’t compete whatsoever but I agree with your point. This car is quite lazy on Cadillac’s part. Especially with new cars on the market like the aviator, which annihilates this interior wise, power train wise, and feature wise.
Dreamy you’re delusional
Sure don't mean fully loaded (All of which top 50k) trims of those ? 🤔 But either way the fact that the build quality of this so called "luxury" SUV is on par with those vehicles you listed is absolutely laughable. Cadillac is such a joke these days. 😂😂😂
Because those companies actually give a shit about their products and customers. GM only cares about making a buck. We have a 2020 Kia Telluride and the interior on it for just under $40,000 feels like it should be in a $50,000 car. This Cadillac needs about $35,000 chopped off the price tag...
Its easy-- they manipulate their money. They also make it impossible to sell an American Car in those countries and then our congress looks the other way. But don't be fooled, Korean quality is not up to even GM who is pretty bad.
It’s nothing compared to Lincoln. It’s another cheap GM car that’s costs an arm and a leg.
He called the aviator a value brand, like ehh no that aviator is so much nicer
@@alfredogarciajr40 What's your point?
Kacper B I guess you never had someone agree with you.
Random American Yeah you’re right. It doesn’t happen very often.
Micah is always informative and entertaining. He pointed out several things I haven't seen in other reviews of this product. Always wondered why Lincoln did not have an Explorer version and their model lineup before now. Front wheel drive high end luxury will always be questioned.
Id take just about every other mentioned SUV over this
That price for a cheap interior and subpar reliability? No thanks. I'll save money and get a Hyundai Palisade.
Cadillac are reliable i know several people with Cadillacs that are 7 10 and even 12 years old!
lol Reliability is more impressive than your Palisade
Andrew Hord Cool, they are nice, but not reliable. Id rather drive a Honda Pilot, not to mention there are ones that are 17 years old running fine, like my 2004.
Someone said Cadillacs are reliable? Lmaoooooo
Mica you’re awesome, thanks for a Hilariously good car review video. Always entertaining! Keep up the good work!
That poor interior quality especially those unwieldy knee rest area for the front seats is straight from the GMC Acadia Denali, which says alot about how little they spent (Cadillac) on this new vehicle's interior design. For a price which might go as high as 75,000 USD, this kind of fit and finish is simply not acceptable. I would just get the top most trim of Palisade with all the features and options added including AWD and still save a bit than the base model of XT-6 while still having a much better overall vehicle.
You realize we're living in a Topsy-turvy world when a Kia Telluride is a better luxury vehicle than a Cadillac
Brian Rosado 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 yea and when the Buick version of a GM product is better. I’d definitely take the Buick over this and pocket some change. Now that I think of it this interior is similar to the enclave.
Facts
Tellurides have tons of maintenance issues. It looks nice but they don't last. Also whats with all the Kia shills.
This the best interviewer ever. attention to quirks and also funny while doing so.
Love to see Micah s reviews keep u interested is not boring
i am cadillac fan, i've owned and loved vintage cadillacs. i have been so pleased to see cadillac rise from their almosth death for the last decade, untill now, now its like someone inside gm has stopped all that. these latest lacs that have been coming are all terrible. this thing is destroyed by the aviator, get a grip GM you are fucking up
i sometimes feel like the people that run GM dont know what to do with cadillac. think about brand value. cadillac basicly was in tota chaos for over 3 decades. and still people connect the brand to luxury, still when you say cadillac people think of the extremely fantastic cadillacs of past. how good is a brand that can do nothing but shit on its own image for 3 decades and still have that?
Always love your reviews. And really nice shoes... Being trying to find them ever since i saw.
The Scotty Kilmer section starts at 2:50.
Ah GM, charge you the world for a product but still give you cheap bits and questionable quality, they just never change.
I am happy that finally we have a review that mentions all the cheap little details of the car, so commonly found in American made brands. And as much as I wish all the best to Cadillac, when non-premium brands like Kia or Hyundai top the luxury brand in interior finish, quality, materials and design, only true Cadillac lovers will take this product seriously. But how many are they?
💯
Amazing that Cadillac phoned it in this hard after taking this long to make a unibody three-row. The Aviator *starts* with 400hp/400ft.lbs, and goes way up from there. This has a Chevy V6 in it, with a "400" badge on the back. For newton meters. Which is a lie, it doesn't make near that much. If the RX350L was the laziest SUV that could possibly be made, this is runner up.
It’s sad. Seems like Cadillac half bakes their vehicles with sharp exteriors wearing the iconic Crest, but the interior is bland and lifeless.
I see more quality and passion in Lincoln’s and even Ram 1500s.
Blazer? I thought it was Traverse!
“That’s your ride!” Quite a ringing endorsement. 😂
Been waiting on this review!
gotta love that grip strength 😂🤣😂🤣
I'm Glad Mica is so through and the rest of the KBB team.
$74,000 ?! and at Cadillac they consider that is the best fit and finish they can offer ?! you kidding !!! i wonder how is that interior will stand in 5 to ten years of use ?!!
Let’s be real here... No one is going to buy it at that price.
YUGO: “We can design a world class interior out of recycled condoms and cheap plastic”
Cadillac: “Hold my wrenches”
It’s a GM product , that speaks volumes . It’s not the standard of the world. Lol
Starting price should be $40k. Even $40k can't even compete to upcoming new CUV Hyundai and Kia, Toyota Highlander, Acura MDX, but Cadillac emblem or crest should worth the $40k not $50k.
I love the honesty in this review, plastic sucks - looks are only thing this car has
5'10“? There's nothing "utterly average" about you Micah, you're a vgl rock star!
Kbb and roadshow uploaded a video at the same exact minute. Obviously watching this first :)
Howdy, great review as always!😸😻😸
This will be a great car in 3 years. Due to Cadillac’s resale I should be able to find one in the low 20k range.
Cadillac Troubleride
Karun DK Cadillac XTStupid
The Aviator and Volvo are much more desirable than this.
Btw, nice orange peel paint job @7:40.
the inside looks so cheap its insane that its 74k
Fail
Uh the new Highlander and CX9 have a better interior than this.
Skip it over buy an Acura MDX or Lexus RXL or even cheaper options like the Telluride, No cap that thing looks really nice for a Kia
the MDX and RX also aren’t that good. Get a X5, GLE, GV80 if you want a real luxury car
@@kristians2704 RXL maybe yeah, but the MDX definitely and the sales show it's a good car. The X5 and GLE are good too but the GV80 isn't selling like it should so consumers obviously prefer the acura.
I see Micah jump out the Caddy, I thumbs up. Life is simple.
Daddy Micah looking good. And definitely correct abound Palisade and Telluride!
Its good to see you Micah, its good to see you 🤧
Ain't it my friend.
Pretty fancy camera work!
when will kbb review the lincoln aviator? i hope soooo soon!
Yep. Torque steer is unacceptable in today's new cars. With all the safety tech around.
The front wheel spin on sudden acceleration is unsafe also, and having to switch on AWD to tackle it,is silly, which if on constantly will use more fuel. I note also that the Acadia also suffers from front wheel spin in 2WD mode.
The quality control needs a shake up.
Just another cheaply made front drive clone of all the other GM SUV's. Also no motor and no guts
Give me a Telluride instead
Unsurprisingly it’s disappointing. Give me a Telluride
Or palisade
Seriously. A Telluride or a Palisade seems an appealing buy over this.
Or Aviator if you want a full on luxury suv
GM just keeps getting worse and worse. No quality control or effort to do a good car anymore. Their future is in bad shape.
Unfortunately. Like if they did great cars I wouldn't mind but they just got so bad like man. What is GM doing at this point?
I left GM a while ago. They became a nothing company, lousy quality with just a bunch of clones they would like to make you think are different.
I know. that's exactly why I have no hope that they even did a mid-engine Corvette right the first time
@@pontiacGXPfan They're so out of touch that the Corvette starting price is a whopping $58,000! I bet Corvette sales are less than HALF what they used to be two years ago...
@@largol33t1 they likely will be since they're chasing after broke younger drivers
So, for Cadillac fans only, got it.
Lol.. I got an invite in the mail to test drive any Cadillac SUV and I was thinking, if any, I'd want to try this one, but this video has me less than hopeful. Think I'll still go though, for the money!
Nice SUV! My grandparents and my mom are both looking at buying this vehicle
Love it😍
I was expecting more on your review. You are good at what you do, but I was expecting more details and depth in the review and true comparison to other luxury vehicles
Damn shame! GM must be cutting cost, is this assembled in mexico!
If you are a "Mexico bad, america good" stereotype, you are a disgrace.
0:12 I think you mean the Chevy Traverse since that is the same size as the XT6 like Enclave is also that size as well
Looks good
I'm sure they don't all have those fit and finish issues. This is the first reviewer that mentioned it.
I expected this review to be as bad as the car appraisals that KBB has on classic cars. However, this was thorough and honest! I like that you pointed out the poor craftsmanship. Shame, The commercial made it look so amazing in white with black trim. Guess I won’t be looking at one of these after all!
Wtf happened to GM?
ill pay more attention to this vehicle when its on par with competitors by having a hybrid or PHEV model and or the use of Cadillac’s supercruise just because they only put in the CT6 doesn’t mean people will buy it
Cadillac needs to go back to making American luxury vehicles like Lincoln and not trying to make a car to compete with the Germans. Lincoln proved you can make an American luxury car that has great driving Dynamics and is comfortable
This thing definitely has some minivan looking angles.
Best video ever
I have owned Mercedes GL450's for my last 3 primary cars, and the XT6 is far and away above it in design, features, and comfort ~ and I love having the strong V6 that outsides the Marc V8. I have not observed the interior issues noted, but with the upgraded Analine leather seating, they are far more comfortable than Mercedes as well...and its less $ for more!
Whats wrong with the Nissan Pathfinder?
Where is the spare tire at
Yes Micah!
Typical GM/Cadillac interior quality. Poor at best and then GM wonders why Cadillac sales are down and slumping.
My problem with this vehicle is it is very underwhelming compared to the competition. The Aviator, MDX, GV80 and plenty others have much more to offer at a cheaper price. Although, it is a very nice looking vehicle on the exterior.
Good video, it was very entertaining; although, I think this Cadillac XT6 is appropriate as a range-topping Buick Enclave than a Cadillac. Also, I think the Lincoln Aviator is above the XT6 that is inline BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE, and the Lexus RX-L.
Love the Pontiac Trans Am t-shirt.
Cold and distant? Wow, Sometimes you go too far with your analogies, Micah! 😄
I was about to purchase the Bentayga, but Micah's praises sold me on the XT6. Thanks buddy :)
Micah, you forgot that Cadillac designed credit card holder for every passenger 😉 easy to grab and get coffee for everyone..
2017 Acura mdx.. bought it brand new, only issue with it ... the 2021 looks siiiiick!!!
Volkswagen should buy Cadillac and keep the exterior designers but fire the interior designers lol
I'm actually sad Cadillac had to build this because that's exactly what this feels like. like someone at Cadillac said "we only built this because we had to"
Cadillac, it's over.
Those company lost its shine
GM? NEXT!
Supertrooper697 GM? PISS OFF
Love the looks but the fitment issues and price aren't worth it
Micah rules! The best reviewer at KBB.
Keep the other ones doing backup work in the back office
My wife just got one for her Birthday!!!
Just drove one had high hopes but you’d have to be high to buy one. Interior is simply “bad”. Looks like the Aviator for this family.
I like the looks of this a lot better than the 2021 Cadillac Escalade. I'd go with the Luxury trim level.
Nice
Did you just say that adaptive cruise is an option? Jeez.
Bro I know exactly where you did the test drive cerritos auto square.
Good old American cheap. Do they not drive any of the competition?
Added bonus, the terrible 3.6 L engine, countdown the time until you must replace all the timings chains
Kevin Barry man that 3.6 v6 is in basically every gm product rn huh.
What a disappointing car. The looks itself are promising, but that interior...yikes
