Cadillac almost stopped the XT5 in the U.S. and Canada. But now, they changed their minds. This could show us what’s coming next.
In China, automakers must reveal details about upcoming vehicles before their debut. This grants us a peek behind the curtain. This insight is relevant to North American audiences. We see this with the upcoming Cadillac XT5.
General Motors planned to stop the Cadillac XT5. They thought it’d become outdated due to Cadillac’s electric expansion. But in late 2023, EV market growth slowed. The auto industry saw potential in gas cars. GM changed its plans. GM’s shift in EV strategy mirrors a change in what North American consumers prefer. We may see the new XT5 version after the current model ends production next year. As a result, we get a sneak peek at the SUV’s second generation design.
