We're taking a look at the changes for the 2019 Cadillac XT5 Platinum AWD and what to expect for the 2020 model year.

Our episode of TestDrive Snapshot on the 2019 Cadillac XT5 Platinum AWD is a quick overview of what's new and changed for the 2019 model year, as well as what's expected for the 2020 XT5 recently announced in China. You can watch our full episode on the 2018 Cadillac XT5 Platinum.

New paint options, a new interior leather choice, and some exterior cosmetic changes like new rims and clear taillights are new for the 2019 Cadillac XT5. Also packages like the Driver Assistance Package has been incorporated into the Platinum trim for the Canadian market. We go over some of the important exterior features like the LED headlights, remote starter, and keyless entry, along with the interior differences like the jet black leather seating, carbon trim, and changes to the Microsuede dashboard.

We take the 2019 Cadillac XT5 on a road test to talk about how it feels and performs versus our opinion on it last year, and what else we can expect for the 2020 model year slated for launch later this year. We wrap up with our thoughts on this vehicle along with our real-world fuel economy testing.
