Compared with the official guidance price, the three models of the new car have all dropped by 100000 yuan, and the discount is more attractive.

The new model is a modified model of the year, and its appearance has not changed much. Specifically, the appearance of the new car uses the family design style, the iconic shield grille with sharp shape on both sides of the split headlamp group, the center of the grille for the brand LOGO logo, the overall recognition is relatively high. In addition, the new car has blackened the middle net and the lower encirclement of the grille, making the front face more athletic.

On the side of the car, a straight waistline of the new car runs from the door handle to the rear, looking very calm. The new car is also equipped with brand-new dark gray multi-spoke rims, and blackens the window frame and roof luggage rack, which is quite fashionable in visual effect. In terms of size, the length, width and height of the new car is 5056/1964/1780mm, the wheelbase is 2863mm, and the positioning is medium and large SUV models. In the rear part, the new car taillight presents an inverted L-shaped shape, and the two exhaust pipes running through the chrome trim and two sides are also blackened to further enhance the sports atmosphere of the vehicle.

In the interior part, the new car continues the 2022 model design layout, but the interior configuration has been upgraded. The new car is equipped with a full LCD dashboard and a larger central control screen, with a standard second row of seats with 4-way electric seat adjustment, boss keys, 6-way aviation headrests, two-segment armrests, etc., and upgrade the central control screen size from 8 inches to 10 inches.

It is understood that the XT6 is a large and medium-sized SUV model under the Cadillac brand. It was officially launched at the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show and went on sale in July of the same year at a price of 419700-549700 yuan. So far, the Cadillac XT6 has been on the market for about five years, but it has not been modified in the medium term. The new car is an annual model, mainly aimed at upgrading the appearance and seats, and will continue to compete with SAIC Audi Q6, Lexus RX and other models.

From the point of view of the price of the new car, the one-mouthed price at the starting limit of 349900 yuan still has an advantage. It is worth mentioning that this is not the first time Cadillac has launched a "time-limited price". On September 28th, the new Cadillac XT5 launched a total of three models, with an official price of 39.99-459900 yuan and a time-limited price of 26.59-335900 yuan, an overall drop of 12.4-134000 yuan. At that time, Xue Haitao, deputy general manager of SAIC General Motors, pointed out that the purpose of the new XT5's "time-limited price" was to prevent internal rolls between dealers. However, the industry believes that the introduction of "time-limited price" is more to increase sales promotion efforts, after all, in the extremely internal price war and the intensive listing of new cars in the environment, the competition between the major car companies is very fierce.

Retail data show that the price cut did boost Cadillac XT5 sales. Cadillac XT5 sold 3632 vehicles in October, making it the highest-selling Cadillac model, compared with 2161, 1513 and 1815 in the previous July-September period.

Returning to the Cadillac XT6 model, the Cadillac XT6 listed this time is a modified model of the car. although the overall change is not big, it is better than the price advantage, with an overall drop of 100000 yuan, which is expected to boost Cadillac sales. Of course, with fierce competition in the car market, serious homogenization of models, and intensive launch of new cars, consumers have a wide range of models to choose from. in such an environment, it will take more time to tell how much impact the new Cadillac XT6 will bring.

Retail figures show that Cadillac sold 90100 vehicles from January to October, with the highest selling model being the CT5, with 46700, XT5 with 21000, XT4 with 8405 and XT6 with 3388.
