This is the ’19 Cadillac XT4, caught testing in Lapland, Finland. This new model will give Cadillac a chance to combat German compact luxury crossovers, such as the BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. It will be positioned beneath the newly unveiled Cadillac XT5.

Not much is known about the details of the upcoming Cadillac XT4, but it is certain that the compact luxury crossover will be based on the company’s modular C1XX platform. It will most likely have a familiar Cadillac grille and angular contour.

It is likely that the upcoming XT4 will borrow some technological features and safety suite from its bigger sibling, the XT5. Expect features, such as customizable ambient lighting, climate control, heated steering wheels and heated seats. The safety features that are likely to be present are airbags, stability control, a rearview camera, a blind spot monitor and lane keep assist. Of course, Cadillac’s latest infotainment system will be deployed in the car.

The upcoming ’19 Cadillac XT4 may be equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine that makes 272hp. It is also expected that the company will make use of advanced noise insulation technology to ensure the ride remains quiet. The engine should be mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Not much is known about the cost of ’19 Cadillac XT4. However, the base price should be somewhere around $32,000.

As the Recognizing the Protection of Motorsports (RPM) Act builds momentum in Washington, D.C., it’s up to the race community and industry to continue the energy and rally customers, employees, followers and friends to take action and tell Congress to save our racecars. After you send your letter at www.sema.org/rpm, here are two easy ways your business can help continue the RPM Act’s progress. (The following materials and additional assets can also be found at www.sema.org/rpmtools):

1. Promote the RPM Act on your website and at your business.

  • Consider adding custom RPM Act graphics and GIFs to your website’s homepage and promotional materials. You can also print these materials to display in your store or garage. Find the images here.
  • If adding the image to your website, be sure to link each image to www.votervoice.net/SEMA/campaigns/45394/respond. That way, visitors to your site will be sent to the letter-writing campaign directly. The form is short and only takes a minute to fill out.

2. Spread the word on social media. 

  • Your company can easily share the following Facebook, Instagram and Twitter posts on your own social-media platforms. Encourage your followers to write Congress and share these posts with their friends and contacts.
