Comparison Review

Comfort
The Cadillac XT4 offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the GMC Terrain, with comparable head- and legroom. The GMC Terrain will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Cadillac XT4.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Cadillac XT4 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the GMC Terrain, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Cadillac XT4 is much wider than the GMC Terrain, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. When looking at overall length, the Cadillac XT4 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the GMC Terrain.

Handling
The Cadillac XT4 has a larger turning radius than the GMC Terrain, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Cadillac XT4 greatly out-muscles the GMC Terrain.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Cadillac XT4 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the GMC Terrain.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Cadillac XT4 and the GMC Terrain. The Cadillac XT4 has significantly less cargo capacity than the GMC Terrain.
