    the XT5 design looks tired all ready…maybe it will sell much more if it has the Escalade or Elmeraj/Ceil design.

      Not sure if it’s tired, but it certainly does not stand out in any way. I love the new Jaguar F-Pace, for example.

      That said, I am wary in this segment to put much stock into styling. These small/medium sized CUVs are basically the new family car. Plenty of family cars have had dead-boring designs (e.g., Camry) and sold very well for years and years.

      I think the XT5, with its clear improvements over the SRX, just basically kept GM in the game, but it certainly was not a leap forward in any appreciable way; thus sales will be “fine” but nothing spectacular (as opposed to say, the Escalade, Encore, Colorado or the Volt, which are leaps forward in their segments and/or standout). What makes the XT5 stand out compared to BMW, Jaguar, Mercedes, Audi? Not much I can think of.

        I agree that XT5 leaves something to be desired. It is a very good vehicle but not a stand out in any capacity. It’s design is evolutionary and not revolutionary.
        I still believe that the XT5 will be a better seller than the SRX but it is turning out to be a slow go.

    the XT5 exterior side view profile still looks like a Star Wars styled vehicle due to the vary down sloped beltline and wedged shap profile. it certainly doesn’t look like luxury car due to that Pokamon like exterior styling.

    pretty much all Cadillacs are just Evolutionary….so I’m hoping for something Revolotionary for the future Caddys.

      I wouldn’t say that the ATS was evolutionary.

    the ATS looks is Evolutionary….I hate the fat rear and high beltline and it looks like a car version of the XT5 due to the fact that it has the Pokamon like exterior styling….A&S looks worse in cars than on CUV/SUVs.

      I beg to differ. The ATS was revolutionary at the time for Cadillac.

      What is a “Pokamon”?

    If the ATS looked like the stunning Elmeraj or Ciel concepts…than it’s Rovolutionary….but since it didn’t…the ATS just looks boring and dated.

      You’re stating your opinion as fact, but it’s vital to recognize that it’s simply your opinion on what is a very subjective topic.

      When the ATS and third-gen (current) CTS came out, they were very much revolutionary — especially compared to their respective competition, which featured bland, non-descript styling. Though you don’t have access to this kind of material, I will tell you that Cadillac’s current design language ranks higher (read: is appreciated by more people) than the design of BMW, MBZ, or Lexus. Only Audi steadily ranks higher in focus group clinics. However, all of those brands outsell Cadillac on a monthly basis.

      So, what does that tell you? Besides the fact that the brand doesn’t have enough crossovers in its lineup, it should tell you that the reputation/image is what is holding Cadillac back — not its styling.

    the ATS and CTS exterior designs are dull….period.
