    Cadillac Announces XT5 Crossover To Debut At Dubai

      Cadillac's XT5 Crossover To Debut At Dubai

    Cadillac announced today that the XT5 - replacement for the SRX crossover - will be making its worldwide debut at the Dubai Motor Show in November. Following this, the new Cadillac crossover will head to the LA Auto Show for its North American debut.

     

    "The XT5 will be the cornerstone of a series of crossovers bearing the 'XT' designation," the automaker said in a statement.

     

    The XT5 has some big shoes to fill as the SRX was Cadillac's most popular model sold worldwide. Previous reports has the SRX using a 2.0T four-cylinder and 3.6L V6 for power, and being available with front or all-wheel drive.

    In terms of being very nouveau chique, this XT5 really looks the part.

     

    But I myself am very familiar with the hard edges and sharp creases of Art and Science. This'll take some time getting used to. Funny how it's now the Cadillac and Lincoln products that are restrained in their style compared to the new ostentatious RX line. But I like the boldness; so I'm hoping Cadillac really delivers a knockout interior. 

     

    But whenever I see the front end of this thing, I see a resemblance to a Decepticon logo.

    Dubai seems very likely to be a nod toward globalization; you'd expect Cadillac to debut in NYC or Detroit and this flies in the face of that. Purposefully. 

    I was thinking about that....about globalization.

    In my opinion, the Escalade V seems like a better fit for Dubai and Paris for the XT5.

     

    Why?

    These Middle Eastern guys love their hugely arrogant vehicles that just guzzle that oil of theirs, and an Escalade V is just that...

    Paris for the XT5...

    The XT5 ....c'est mignon...its cute...and Europeans like small and cute.

     

    But in retrospect...Dubai is just fine...Im just making stupid small talk.

    I change my mind.

    I came across this pic...maybe Dubai IS the place for the T5 to debut.

    Nothing says prestige in 2015 as having a couple of star studded press shots with Sheikhs around your car....

    • I am STILL waiting for everybody and his brother to pull a "Im NEVER gonna drive a piece of shyte Toyota ever again"  like they did with GM, Ford and Chrysler.  But then again, Americans DID vote for Trump a SECOND time.... And Canadians WILL vote for Polievre...  Im asking too much.
    • I didnt click on @A Horse With No Name facebook link because: 1. Facebook. I try to avoid Facebook as much as possible. Not hard to do anymore. Hope it dies sson though. I digress. Ill save THAT rant for another day. I think Ill start another Toyota hatred rant in the coming days instead... 2. I sooooo much hate Toyota, that I cant even bring myself to celebrate over Toyota problem stories because of the hatred being soooooo strong that even I try to avoid ANYTHING Toyota related.   (I do like some vehicles they produce as a disclaimer) But...I did listen to this one   Alls I got to say is...Toyota NEVER even HAD that reliabilty thing EVEN in the 1990s as that video is saying as the engine sludge thing HAPPENED in the late 1990s.  And even THEN, Toyota blamed the consumer...  So blaming the consumer is NOTHING new to Toyota. But the video is bang on!!! And as I was youtubing googling Toyota to retrieve that video above...I ran into Scotty Kilmore.   And he JUST released this video     Not gonna watch these videos, so I do NOT know of he has a clickbait title, but even Scotty has just acknowledged Toyota boo boos.    I have watched Scotty like 4 or 5 videos 5 years ago or something like that.  But Ill repeat, Toyota NEVER had this mythical relkiabilty thing. Some cars were built like tanks from them. Some cars are STILL built like gtanks from them. But they have had they SAME amount, but probably MORE shytty cars failing then any OTHER OEM...   But hey...  The Toyota kool-aid was some delicious shyte back in the day. Glad I NEVER drank it though.  But if Scotty is TRULY dissing Toyota's reliability, it MUST be a very REAL thing. But it ALWAYS HAD been a thing.  Oh well...
    • @G. David Felt  is such a lazy ass bum, isnt he? He sleeps all day that  &@#%*!@$  bum!!!       We arent supposed to speak about Toyota problems.  You'll be called an @$$hole, be questioned of your ancestry and citizenship...   
    • Heal up quickly!  What'd you have surgery for? 
    • Still alive, sleeping allot, taking my pain meds and watching a little TV when not sleeping. Sorry I did not get to posting a story on the Huge Kia reveal at the LA Auto Show or the Reveal on the Hyundai Ioniq 9. Will tey to get caught up once I am not sleeping so much. Right now only on my cell phone.
