Today, Cadillac introduces the 2024 XT4 — a bold, modern take on the compact luxury SUV brimming with curated design updates and an extensive suite of technology and safety features.
“The XT4 continues to be a top-selling vehicle in its class, year over year,” said Rory Harvey, Global Cadillac Vice President. “It’s balance of dynamic style, drivability and luxury has made it a favorite for many new Cadillac customers. Now with enhancements including our 33-inch-diagonal LED Color Touchscreen Display and safety features, it will further demand a second look.”
Offered in Luxury, Premium Luxury and Sport trims, highlights of the XT4’s new and enhanced features include:

Luxury and design take precedence from the inside and out
A more distinguishing, more contemporary pose is struck with the 2024 Cadillac XT4 with a new exterior appearance as well as a revamped interior.
“The 2024 XT4’s exterior styling — with signature vertical lighting cues and enhancements — advances Cadillac’s design standard,” said Bryan Nesbitt, Executive Director, Global Cadillac. “Complemented with a redesign of the interior instrument panel, fashionable embroidery patterns on seating, and a feeling of front row spaciousness — the new XT4 is distinctive and audacious.”
On the exterior, the XT4’s all new front fascia features the unmistakable Cadillac vertical signature lighting which is sleeker now with refreshed headlamps and daytime running lights. The XT4’s new grille is a fresh reinterpretation of the classic Cadillac chevron embedded in a highly dynamic parametric pattern and crafted with ultra-precision.
Each cell of the grille is unique in shape, size and curvature and dipped in deep black gloss. The styling in the Premium Luxury trim has exclusive wheels, grille, fascia, roof rails, and side body accents where the Sport has its own exclusive wheels, fascia and body-side dark accents, and dark finish roof rails.
There’s also an new lineup of 18- and 20-inch alloy wheel designs across the portfolio as well as three new exterior colors2: Emerald Lake Metallic, Midnight Sky Metallic and Deep Sea Metallic.
Inside, the XT4 has a more tech-forward ambience with a redesign of the instrument panel that incorporates a bold, 33-inch-diagonal LED display inspired by the Cadillac LYRIQ. It is the interface for a new, advanced Virtual Cockpit System that is the foundation for the vehicle’s infotainment system and connectivity features.
The XT4’s cabin also features authentic brushed aluminum décor across the full width of the newly styled instrument panel accented with contemporary embroidery patterns on the seats.
Interior décor varies based on the trim:
- Luxury — features classic Piano Black appointments with laser etching
- Premium Luxury — offers genuine wood or aluminum trim, depending on the color combination
- Sport — includes genuine carbon fiber or genuine wood, depending on the interior color.
Advanced user interface and next-gen connectivity
The XT4’s new, expansive 33-inch-diagonal LED color touchscreen display is the focal point of the refreshed interior and the command center for its infotainment system3 and suite of advanced safety features.
This artfully integrated advanced display is capable of a stunning 9K resolution and curves toward the driver in a single continuous screen, spanning the driver’s viewing area. It also incorporates a customizable user interface designed to offer a technology-forward and personalized experience, with selectable display themes that can be tailored for the user’s mood or personality.
The 2024 XT4 will offer intuitive access to the vehicle’s infotainment and connectivity features, including:
