The GM Authority Take
Cadillac XT5 sales fell the same amount as the previous quarter here in Q2 2024 while slipping yet another spot as competitors beat out the luxury marque’s dated first-generation compact crossover. It has seen few updates since its launch for the 2017 model year.
While GM recently debuted an all-new 2025 Cadillac XT5 in China and unveiled its redesigned interior, no such update will be offered in the States. Yet, the automaker launched a refreshed 2024 Cadillac XT4, which is the XT5’s subcompact sibling.
Meanwhile, the refreshed 2025 Acura RDX just debuted as a Cadillac XT5 rival. The current third-gen RDX was introduced for the 2019 model year.
About Cadillac XT5
The 2024 Cadillac XT5 represents the eighth model year of the first-generation model, arriving with minimal changes and updates compared to the preceding 2023 model year, including a trio of accent packages – the new Red Accent Package, Blue Accent Package, and Bronze Accent Package.
Here is everything that’s new and different for the 2024 XT5.
The 2025 Cadillac XT5 for the North American market drops the Platinum Package, a major optional upgrade previously offered for the 2024 model year. Also for 2025, GM Authority has learned that the Onyx and Onyx Lite Packages will be dropped from the entire XT5 lineup.
Here are all the 2025 XT5 paint colors and interior colorways, along with available wheels.
As a reminder, the 2025 Cadillac XT5 offers two powerplant options, including the turbocharged 2.0L I4 LSY gasoline engine, rated at 235 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, and the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 LGX gasoline engine, rated at 310 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. Both are mated to the GM nine-speed automatic transmission, with front-wheel drive standard and all-wheel drive optional.
All-electric 2024 Cadillac Lyriq Sport
On the all-electric front, the Cadillac Lyriq is the luxury marque’s first-ever EV and its all-electric replacement for the aging XT5. The new all-electric 2025 Cadillac Optiq is now the entry-level EV offering to eventually replace the XT4, which itself received a refresh for the 2024 model year. These models precede the larger 2026 Cadillac Vistiq, an all-electric three-row crossover set to round out the EV portfolio, slotting in the same space occupied by the Cadillac XT6. The Cadillac Escalade IQ full-sizer will slot above the Vistiq.
Additionally, a Cadillac V-Series EV is set to debut this year, likely as the Cadillac Lyriq-V.

I’m truly having a difficult time understanding a couple things. First, where are all the nay-sayers that just love to come on here and blow smoke when there’s any type of negative article on EV’s? Where are you? Just look at some of the articles on here with SUV after SUV and CUV down. Down and Down. ICE models down. So for those who want to attempt to paint a picture of EV doom and gloom, you best check yourself at the door and include ICE and SUV/CUV’s on your negativity tour.
Second. What will GM and Ford and others do with these constantly dwindling SUV/CUV sales? Will they promise to kill them off due to bad sales? Will they thin the herd and smartly offer maybe 12 to 15 different SUV/CUV’s (over all of GM for example) instead of the 20+ SUV/CUV offerings GM has now? What gives?
So while Ford is at least (finally) admitting that everything is too big and people don’t need such huge vehicles and Ford is currently working on a couple of smaller and cheaper EV’s (Fiesta and Focus names being tossed around), what is GM doing? Stelantis?
The sales of this turd are down for two reasons. One, it’s uncompetitive. Two, Cadillac has been pushing, shoving, throwing, heaving lyriqs out the door with generous lease and cash back offers, to the detriment of all other Cadillacs.
Perhaps it is you who best check yo self b4 u wreck yo self? EVs cost more to produce than what they will sell for. And, they need discounts on top of that. ICEs don’t, or none would be for sale today. The only way automakers can offer EVs is to lose money on them. The only way they can do that, is to sell profitable ICEs (or in Teslas case, sell regulatory credits to those selling profitable ICEs).
I like how EVERYONE wants a small tiny car, especially if it’s an EV. Except they don’t buy small cars, even when they’re EVs. If Ford wants to lose money on them rather than give it to Tesla, fine, but the demand is not there and they’ll end up giving them away for nothing just to keep the factory open and the EPA off their back.
@GetReal: That is one of the most uneducated and uninformed comments I’ve read is a very long time. Congrats on getting so much wrong or at minimum, just not understanding the basics.
First, you need only go down the list here on GMA to read multiple articles on ICE SUV/CUV’s being way down.
Second, you say ICE “don’t” need discounts? Have you seen a Chevy Silverado ad recently? Wow.
Third, losses on EV’s is going down and will turn around and profits will be made soon. It’s business.
Lastly, you are dead wrong on nobody wanting smaller cars. But keep drinking the juice if it makes you smile.
You know a great way to solve that problem? Selling the redesigned model here in the States. But hey what do I know? It’s not like GM listens to their customers anyways unless they live in mainland China. They’d stick their d*** in a meat grinder for that market.
Um, they pretty much already have. As has any other western company involved in China. Best thing to do would be to pull out now before it collapses.
The ICE crossovers are basically following the same path as the XTS. They sacrificed development of them for the EVs. Selling the refreshed XT5 from China in the US would probably have similar affects as the XT4, meaning sales will still continue to decrease. They are now in a position where it would cost too much to improve them enough to recapture market share so they will simply discontinue them. The XT4 will be the last ICE crossover from Cadillac.
They redesigned the XT4 and sales are going down for that as well. I think you ICE truthers do a bunch of talking on here and are wrong 80% of the time. You guys have no business sense.
All of Cadillac models sales have went down except for the Lyriq and Escalade.
Lyriq’s are finally starting to move here. My dealer had a stock of over 100 of them last month. It had been steadily growing week by week. Then late last month trend reversed, and they are down to 40 with some of that being marked as in transit. I also noticed several in person in the wild, which was a change. One woman about a block from me bought one early this year and it was the only one I’d seen until a few weeks ago. It is an attractive looking product, so I wish it well. Not quite “it” for me though, I’ll wait.
Lyriqs are only moving because they are giving them away. How much are they losing per unit now?
There is no accountability with GM management. Bad decision after bad decision. Full speed ahead on EVs before the infrastructure is ready. Half of EV owners would not have another one.
Suck up to China chasing volume. Give them all of your technology only to have significant market declines in favor of Chinese brands that are probably using your technology. Introduce the latest and greatest in China while letting their home market flounder! The next bad decision will be importing those products to the US from China. I won’t be buying them!
Good. 9 years with nothing more than a redesign of grill and wheels. Good on ya GM. Let it slide to absolute bottom of the segment. I’m so damn insulted China gets a redesign and NA market gets f**k all. Don’t even get me started on CT6. It really hurts my heart knowing the omega platform is so brilliant yet under-utilized. I kinda wish Cadillac was boarded up so the frustration would be over with.
Cadillac just lost another buyer ,I waited for the 2025 revised XT5 but it will not be available ,, I canceled my order Oh ,, my friend did the same thing ..
