No, your Cadillac XT5 doesn’t have 3rd-row seating, but rather sacrifices the 3rd row seat for extra cargo space at the back. The Cadillac XT5 seating capacity is five; two in the front and three at the back. Therefore, it is not great for large families.

Some people have speculated that the reason the XT5 doesn’t feature 3rd-row seats is that it was designed to be quicker and lighter than the Escalade. This makes sense given that the XT5 appears to be nimbler and more compact than the 2022 Cadillac Escalade. Also, it sacrifices the 3rd-row seats for larger cargo space, therefore, you won’t have to worry about how to fit all your loads in the SUV.

The XT5 features four trim levels: standard, luxury, premium and platinum, with the platinum package being the top-of-the-line. The mid-size SUV showcases a luxurious interior with an exquisite exterior and great gas mileage.
