The winter brings so many great things, but it can make driving around Baltimore a bit tricky. When road conditions aren't the best, driving a dependable vehicle is important. The new Cadillac XT5 is an SUV that you'll be able to rely on to get you safely around Bethesda and Alexandria, VA, when the temperatures drop.
You'll want to consider getting an all-wheel-drive with your XT5. All-wheel drive is available on every trim, and it can significantly enhance traction by sending power to the rear wheels in addition to the front ones. If you think you'll need to power your way through rough terrain, think about getting the upgraded engine. It's a 3.6-liter V6 that makes 310-horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. The standard engine is pretty solid as well. It's a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that delivers 235-horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The top-of-the-line Sport trim comes with Brembo performance brakes engineered to provide a precise response. In addition, a performance suspension system is available. It allows you to customize the driving experience according to the conditions that you may face.
When rain, snow, or anything in between is falling, it can be hard to see. Fortunately, the XT5 has forward collision warning, pedestrian braking, and automatic emergency braking. The system warns you if you approach a vehicle or pedestrian too quickly, and your SUV could even hit the brakes on your behalf. The high beams are automatic, making it easier to see on dark and windy roads of Silver Spring. Headlamps are automatic, too, and the side mirrors are heated to prevent ice buildup. Front cornering lamps, LED Daytime Running Lamps, and LED headlamps all improve visibility.
The Cadillac XT5, which we carry at Fitzgerald Cadillac of Frederick in CITY, is ready for anything.
