Miles Overview
This is Cadillac's full-size luxury SUV, the one that brings serious presence to the school run or the valet line. It's a big truck, so you'll feel its size, but the ride is smooth and the steering is light enough that it's easier to manage than you'd expect. The cabin is genuinely roomy, with comfortable seating for up to eight and an easy-folding third row that opens up plenty of cargo space. Owners mention that the big tires wear quickly and that visibility can be tricky, so take a careful look before you buy. The upgraded leather, real wood trim, and unique 22-inch wheels set the Platinum Edition apart from the Premium and Luxury trims below it. Its 6.2L V8 makes 403 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque, routed through a six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive that make this big SUV feel genuinely quick, though you'll pay at the pump with 15 mpg combined. Magnetic Ride Control is standard here, meaning the Platinum Edition can tighten up for corners or soften for the highway more effectively than the lesser trims.
