#CADILLAC 2019 Cadillac XT4, Cadillac Reveal of the XT4 in New York, Broll

Cadillac unveiled the first-ever Cadillac XT4, an all-new compact SUV tailored for the next generation of luxury customers.
Developed on an exclusive compact SUV architecture, Cadillac's entry in the industry's fastest-growing luxury segment delivers expressive design, confident performance, spacious accommodations and new technologies.
"The first-ever 2019 Cadillac XT4 expands our successful SUV lineup to a segment where Cadillac has never been before," said Cadillac President Johan de Nysschen. "And it sets off a dramatic expansion and elevation of the product range, that will see a new Cadillac virtually once every six months through 2021."
Simple and sculpted lines draw the customer in and accentuate the XT4's powerful proportions and aggressive presence. The interior is the Cadillac design aesthetic distilled: the thoughtful and artistic integration of technology and appealing style. The cabin is exceptionally refined, with expected segment-leading rear-seat spaciousness.
All models are driven by an all-new Cadillac 2.0L Turbo engine that features new efficiency-enhancing technologies including Active Fuel Management (cylinder deactivation), coupled with a nine-speed automatic transmission with next-generation Electronic Precision Shift.
Cadillac also debuts its new global "Y" trim strategy on the XT4. Distinctive Premium Luxury and Sport models build from the well-equipped Luxury (base) trim. Specific content and styling cues tailor the Premium Luxury and Sport trims to different customer tastes and preferences.
Cadillac will roll out this new trim strategy beginning with the XT4 and the 2019 CT6 top-of-range sedan.
The Cadillac XT4 will be priced starting at $35,790 including destination charge, excluding tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment, when it goes on sale in fall 2018. Starting at the end of March 2018, customers will be able to preorder their XT4s from participating U.S. Cadillac dealers nationwide.
Additional XT4 highlights include:
Cadillac user experience with all-new rotary controller
Smart chassis features including available twin-clutch, decoupling all-wheel drive
Available Active Sport Suspension featuring Continuous Damping Control and new electro-hydraulic braking assist
STYLE WITH SUBSTANCE
A team of young designers representing the heart of the XT4's target customer demographic helmed the design, penning an expressive SUV that injects a higher degree of sculpture into Cadillac's lineup - and today's vehicle is very close to their original visions for the exterior and interior.
"The XT4 has a great presence that is confident and poised," said Therese Pinazzo, exterior design manager. "It exudes Cadillac's DNA, but with a new boldness that speaks to the youthfulness of its team and its customers."
In keeping with Cadillac's new "Y" trim strategy, the Luxury, Premium Luxury and Sport models offer distinctive styling cues and trim finishes to create unique personas and greater choice for customers. XT4 Sport models feature a gloss black mesh grille inspired by Cadillac's high-performance V-Series models, gloss black window moldings and specific Sport alloy wheel choices. Luxury and Premium Luxury models feature grilles with bright metallic accents, satin aluminum window moldings and satin chrome-accented door handles.
All models feature advanced LED lighting technology front and rear, with front LED low and high beams and an LED-illuminated light blade for the daytime running lamps. Cadillac's vertical L-shaped lighting signature is stretched horizontally, emphasizing the XT4's width and confident stance.
Standard LED taillights are housed in traditional red lenses on Luxury and Premium Luxury, while the Sport model receives tinted neutral-density (clear) lenses that complement the generally darker exterior color choices.
Eight exterior colors will be offered on the 2019 XT4 at launch: Atlantic Metallic, Autumn Metallic, Crystal White Tricoat, Twilight Blue Metallic, Shadow Metallic, Red Horizon Tintcoat, Stellar Black Metallic and Radiant Silver Metallic.
BOLD, REFINED AND SPACIOUS CABIN
Echoing the exterior design themes, the new XT4's cabin conveys boldness and strength with youthful athleticism. Sweeping arcs and tapered lines enhance the feeling of spaciousness and give it a taut, tightly wrapped appearance.
The interior elements come together in a sophisticated and modern design. Intuitive technology includes available next-generation wireless device charging and an in-cabin air ionizer.
"With the XT4's interior, we distilled Cadillac to its essence," said Phillip Kucera, Interior Design manager. "We've been able to be simpler and bolder than we have ever been before, giving the SUV attitude and a sporty connotation."
