The 2021 XT4 comes in three trim levels: Luxury, Premium Luxury, and Sport. The XT4's exterior has a stylish design with sharp edges throughout, giving it a refined and chiseled appearance.

The Cadillac XT6 is a new entrant to the crossover SUV market segment. First released in the 2020 model year, the XT6 focuses on providing customers in the SUV market with uniquely Cadillac touches of luxury. A critical reason that you might want to buy an SUV is for the elevated driving position that this class of vehicle offers. However, an elevated driving position is far from the only thing the luxurious interior of the XT6 has going for it. Let's discuss what's available inside the new 2021 Cadillac XT6 from the base trim level to optional upgrades. more Seating Image via Pixabay by AutoPhotography Beyond it's luxurious exterior and high-performance, the first important point about the XT6 is that it has three rows, which means a maximum seating capacity of seven people. This sets the XT6 apart from other Cadillac crossover SUVs like the XT4 and XT5. If you opt for the more luxurious and comfortable second-row captain's chairs, the maximum seating capacity reduces to six. The base Luxury trim has jet black leatherette seats with a brushed aluminum trim for a suave color palette that immediately identifies the XT6 as a luxury vehicle. At higher trim levels, the leatherette seat upholstery switches out for genuine leather available in five different color options. On the base trim level, you also get heated front seats as standard. Another great perk is that even at the base Luxury trim level, the 2021 Cadillac XT6 comes with an eight-way adjustable power driver's seat. The driver's seat also has a memory seat functionality, which allows you to save your preferred sitting position and switch to it with the touch of a button. Interior Space Space is another important concern for the interior of an SUV. You want enough room for your things while still feeling comfortable and not crammed in. Starting with the cargo area, the XT6 has 12.6 cubic feet of storage space behind its third row. XT6 Cargo Space The cargo area increases in storage capacity to 43.1 cubic feet with the third row folded down and 78.7 cubic feet of space with both second and third rows folded down. The maximum storage capacity ranks the XT6 as one of the most impressive in the crossover SUV class. An extremely practical available upgrade is the cargo net, which helps you secure and organize smaller items in your cargo area. If you opt for it, the cargo net is something you need to have installed by your car dealer so make sure to ask your local Cadillac dealership about this option. XT6 Passenger Space Working your way from back to front, the third row has 29.5 inches of legroom and 37.2 inches of headroom, which are both respectable ratings that ensure even the tallest won't feel uncomfortable. Passengers sitting in the XT6's second row have 39.1 inches of both headroom and legroom. Lastly, both front-row driver and front-row passenger get 39.8 inches of headroom and 41.2 inches of legroom. Overall, the dimensions of the XT6's interior make it stand out as a crossover SUV that adds luxury in terms of both functionality and style. Infotainment The base trim level for the XT6 kicks its infotainment system off with an impressive 8-speaker premium Bose audio system. Normally reserved for the upper trim levels in most vehicles, the premium audio system delivers a superb listening experience for your favorite radio shows or music. If you really value pristine audio, you'll be happy to hear that at higher trim levels, you can upgrade the sound system to 14 speakers. A rear-seat infotainment system with DVD player is available at all trim levels of the 2021 Cadillac XT6. If you plan to frequently take your family on long-haul journeys, the rear-seat infotainment system is definitely worth considering. The rear-seat infotainment system is impressive in how comprehensive the features are. The system is delivered via 8-inch diagonal screens embedded into the headrests. Each screen has multiple available inputs, wireless connectivity, remote control, and two sets of wireless infrared headphones. You can also pair the rear infotainment system with the Cadillac companion app to implement parental controls on the system. The standard front infotainment system with the XT6 comes with an 8-inch color touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. The software used to provide infotainment options is Cadillac User Experience (CUE). Using the smartphone integration, you can have text messages dictated to you, connect to music on your phone, and access your favorite apps. Inside, the 2021 Chevrolet X6 has an impressive six USB ports. On the front console, you get one fully functional type A USB port and one fully functional type C. The second row has one charge-only type A port and one charge-only type C port. The third row has two charge-only type C ports. Safety Features As safety is a key concern, the base XT6 trim comes packed with useful features that will keep you and your passengers safer on the road. The airbag system comes with seven airbags, including front airbags for driver and front passenger, a knee airbag for drivers, seat-mounted side-impact airbags for driver and front outboard passenger, and head-curtain airbags for all rows in outboard seating positions. Forward collision alert warns you if it detects a potential front-end collision with a vehicle you're following so you can quickly take action. Automated emergency braking works with the forward collision alert system to help you avoid or reduce the severity of a front-end collision with a detected vehicle. Camera technology helps automatically provide hard emergency braking or enhance the driver's hard braking. Another useful safety feature is the HD rear vision camera, which shows you a high-resolution digital image of the area directly behind your vehicle when you're in reverse at low speeds. This camera helps you safely park and avoid nearby objects. A range of additional standard safety features rounds off the XT6's impressive and comprehensive list. As standard, you get lane keep assistance with lane departure warnings, a tire pressure monitoring system, and an emergency tool kit.
