Used 2019 Cadillac XTS Platinum

The 2019 Cadillac XTS benefits from a host of technological features. The interior benefits the most from this technology, which includes Cadillac's CUE information and media control module. CUE, which stands for "Cadillac User Experience," features an 8-inch touch screen set in the center stack that functions similarly to an iPad. It can respond to touch gestures as well as voice commands and utilizes much of the same technology as the aforementioned iPad. Cadillac has even gone so far as to design a CUE app for the iPad, further integrating it into the car. The system also includes a mode called "Teen Driver," which encourages safe driving by limiting access to distracting features and preventing various safety features from being turned off. It also provides reports on a young person's driving habits. Also unique among luxury sedans is Cadillac's magnetic damping system. Normally seen on much more exotic sports cars, magnetic damping magnetic-reactive fluid in the shock absorbers to adjust shock stiffness and ride on the fly, producing both a quiet ride without sacrificing handling. The Cadillac XTS is available in four different trims: Standard, Luxury, Premium and Platinum. All-wheel drive is available on any of the top three trims and adds a couple thousand dollars to the price of the vehicle. Standard power across the line comes from a 305-horsepower 3.6L V6. A twin-turbocharged version of that same V6 bumps output up to 410 horsepower, with 369 pound-feet of torque. This engine is available on V-Sport models in the Premium and Platinum lines. The base XTS is very well equipped, with a long list of standard items, including 19-inch wheels, HID xenon headlights and a roof mounted antenna, as well as interior accoutrements like an 8-speaker Bose sound system, parking assist, leather seating and a 10-way power adjustable driver's seat. Stepping up to the Luxury edition will net several improvements and open up the option of having all-wheel drive. Lighting is enhanced with daytime running lights and improved interior lighting, while the front seats now feature thigh adjustments. A rearview back up camera and upgraded 19-inch wheels round out the important differences between the Standard and Luxury trim. The Premium edition adds a navigation system, an uprated 14-speaker Bose sound system and a trick LCD instrument cluster that can be reconfigured and customized to the buyers' tastes. The top-of-the-line Platinum edition adds 20-inch wheels, a power sunroof and sunshades for back seat occupants. The front fascia of the Platinum edition has also been subtly modified to set it apart from lesser versions of the XTS. The XTS is a thoroughly modern car, and the safety features speak for themselves.
