2019 Cadillac Xt5
Federal crash-test performance, recalls, and complaints, scored into one NHTSA Safety Index.
The Cadillac XT5 is a five-passenger midsize luxury SUV that competes in one of the most crowded segments in the American market. Positioned as Cadillac's volume-driving crossover, it targets buyers who want premium refinement, a composed ride, and brand cachet without stepping up to a three-row vehicle. The XT5 has been a cornerstone of Cadillac's lineup since its debut, and model years 2019 through 2025 represent a mature, well-developed generation.
The 2019 Cadillac Xt5 earns an NHTSA Safety Index of 83 out of 100, an strong result driven by its federal crash-test stars and its recall record. No vehicle recalls are on file for this model year.
