MyRide.com suggests "both [2008 Cadillac XLR-V] occupants will benefit from front and seat-mounted side airbags."

Cars.com notes that Cadillac XLR-V 2008 "seat belts have powered pretensioners," while "four-channel all-disc antilock brakes, traction control and a stability system" are standard.

Disturbingly, MyRide.com reports that this 2008 Cadillac has "high rear body line that results in limited visibility."
