TrueDelta Reviews the Seat Room and Comfort of the 2015 Cadillac XTS

| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | The generously sized front buckets inside the XTS are among the most comfortable and supportive you'll find, assuming you like your seating on the firm (if not quite Audi-firm) side. Those seeking a cushier seat with an optional massager (not offered in the XTS) will find one in the MKS. Both cars' front seats provide more lateral support than you might expect from America's remaining large luxury sedans, but still not a lot. After all, hardcore canyon carving isn't the primary objective. Despite their much larger number of adjustments, I found the Audi A8's front seats to be overly firm and less form-fitting than those in the Detroiters. The rear seat of the XTS is also quite comfortable--for two people. Basing the XTS on GM's Epsilon platform, originally created for much smaller cars, has a cost. It's much cheaper and easier to lengthen a platform than to widen one. So the XTS is essentially a stretched midsize sedan rather than a truly large one. Rear legroom is abundant despite insufficient space for feet beneath the front seats, but the cabin is decidedly midsize in breadth. The compact Dodge Dart (admittedly wide and heavy for its class) provides as much space for shoulders. Rear seat passengers sit much closer to the front seats in the MKS, which consequently doesn't feel nearly as roomy in back. But the Lincoln's rear seat cushion is higher off the floor, and so provides better thigh support for adults. The Audi easily provides the most space for three abreast. For XTS-matching legroom, though, you'll have to step up to the extended wheelbase version. see full Cadillac XTS review | |

TrueDelta Reviews the Powertrain of the 2015 Cadillac XTS
| 2015 Cadillac XTS Powertrain: Pros | ||
| Year | Comment | |
| 2014 | Owing to the big bump in power, the XTS Vsport is quick. The turbos shave the time to 60 mph by two seconds, to just over five. But don't let the 410-horsepower rating fool you. In magazine tests, the 365-horsepower Lincoln MKS and (allegedly) 333-horsepower Audi A8 are just a couple tenths behind, and in daily driving can feel punchier. What gives? Well, the XTS Vsport's engine only produces 400+ horsepower at the very top of its range. Lower down, torque (and with it power) is limited to preserve the transmission. Even 369 lb-ft is about 60 more than the six-speed automatic was originally designed to handle. The closely related V6 in the rear-wheel-drive CTS Vsport produces only ten more horsepower at its slightly lower peak, but 61 more lb-ft of torque in its midrange. Also, the XTS's transmission has six tall ratios. The eight-speed automatics in the A8 and CTS have much shorter initial gears which get their engines to their power peaks with more alacrity. To top it off, the transmission in the XTS lacks the quick responses its powerful partner deserves. There are two ways to look at the XTS Vsport's performance. It's quick, but not astoundingly so. Ads notwithstanding, it won't blow the doors off other large luxury sedans with somewhat lower power ratings. On the other hand, would there be any point to a quicker large luxury sedan? Some drivers always desire more power. Audi offers a 520-horsepower S8, after all. For the great majority, though, the XTS Vsport is quicker than they'll ever need it to be. The effortless acceleration missing in the regular XTS is present here. see full Cadillac XTS review | |
