TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2021 Cadillac XT6 is a sharp spin on three-row family crossovers, but misses on a few details.

Low-key luxury lies in the 2021 Volvo XC90’s serene cockpit, in its strong acceleration, and in its gray-wool confines.

TCC Likes

Comfortable interior
Good V-6 power
Sharp face

Proudly Scandinavian, inside and out
Simple and sophisticated interior
Tablet-like touchscreen

TCC Dislikes

Rivals cost less...
…and some have better interiors
Rear is a dud

Base powertrain lacks potency
Some flimsy materials in the cabin
Not a performance SUV
