What is the ground clearance of the XT5 in centimeters?
1 Answers
XT5's minimum ground clearance is 175 millimeters. The minimum ground clearance of the XT5 refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which is used to characterize the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. If the XT5's ground clearance is higher, its off-road capability improves. However, if the XT5's ground clearance is too high, the stability during high-speed driving will decrease. The XT5 is the second model under Cadillac's new naming convention (the first being the CT6). Its full name is Crossover Touring 5, replacing the previous SRX, and it is currently Cadillac's best-selling model. The XT5's dimensions are 4813 mm in length, 1903 mm in width, and 1682 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2857 mm. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the XT5's ground clearance is not static; it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the XT5's load variations. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and the road conditions. For urban areas with good road surfaces, a vehicle with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. For frequent travel to remote areas or regions with poor road conditions, a vehicle with higher ground clearance may be preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the undercarriage.
