Cadillac XT6 is so expensive, what's the difference with ordinary Cadillac?

Cadillac XT6 will be listed in China in July 20 19. Together with XT4, XT5 and Escalade, it forms a compact, medium-sized, medium-sized and large-scale neat lineup. A few days ago, in the Cadillac brand space in Pudong, Shanghai, the manufacturer announced the interior and functional design of XT6. Here, I would like to talk to you about what I saw and felt during my visit.

The identity of Cadillac XT6: medium and large SUV.

Most SUVs on China Road are compact. Until the country opened the second child, the seven-seat car gradually warmed up and the medium-sized SUV gradually increased. More advanced medium and large SUVs have a narrow audience-more suitable for middle-aged people with certain economic strength, who care about their families and like to travel. Therefore, there are not many varieties on the market, and the prices are mostly above 500,000 yuan, among which Mercedes-Benz GLE, BMW X5 and Audi Q7 are the most typical.

Who is the competing model of Cadillac XT6? There is no particularly direct opponent.

The entry-level guide price of Cadillac XT4 is 259,700 yuan, and XD5 is 359,900 yuan. Based on this, it is speculated that the entry-level price of XT6 may be around 450,000 yuan. If this guess is correct, its price will be close to finidi QX60, Lincoln MKX and Lexus RX. But in terms of space, exquisiteness and configuration, it is better than these three cars. Therefore, it is not impossible to compare it with Q7, GLE and X5.

However, the price of Cadillac XT6 is far from that of Mercedes-Benz GLE and Audi Q7, whose entry level is as high as 600,000-700,000 yuan. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for, but in a car, it is sometimes inaccurate-the reason is the premium. Cadillac entered China much later than Audi, but since the birth of 1902, its theme has been upscale. Henry martynleland, the founder, is famous for paying attention to quality and is known as the "master of precision production". Take this XT6 as an example. From the inside out, I feel a real American luxury.

Body and appearance of Cadillac XT6: strength+futuristic+atmosphere.

XT6 body length is more than 5 meters. Although it doesn't have the characteristics of escalade, it stretches the atmosphere and looks very stable. This style is very consistent with its target group-middle-aged people with successful careers. Generally speaking, this kind of people pay attention to connotation and don't like publicity. Even if I spend my holiday with my family on the shores of Lake Geneva, I will not upload every step of my trip to my circle of friends, let alone open the address display.

In addition to automatic parking, other safety configurations are also rich, such as the "lateral assistance for reversing" function, which simply means that various targets at the rear of the car can be detected when reversing. When it is detected that cars, bicycles and pedestrians are approaching and the distance from the car is less than 2.5s, the driver will be reminded by the sound and alarm on the screen and rearview mirror.

Nevertheless, XT6 has injected some futuristic color into the front part. 15 years ago, when Cadillac CTS first entered China, I was deeply impressed by the chopping headlights. XT6 in front of us is still creative in the field of headlights.

The taillights clearly echo the headlights from a distance-they are all vertical. The upper part extends left and right at the same time to form a multi-angle visual effect.

The tire size is 235/55R20, which is the priority of Michelin. This tire is a comfortable road tire for SUV. Its main features are low noise and good wet bending performance.

XT6 is divided into fashion and sports according to its appearance, and one of the differences is the spoke shape. Interestingly, the wheels of passenger cars are mostly fixed by five bolts, while XT6 has six wheels, one more.
