2. Cadillac XT5: 68,312
Replacing the outgoing Cadillac SRX in 2016, the Cadillac XT5 is currently their best selling model both in the US and globally. That says something. The Cadillac experience is unmistakable in the XT5, with premium leather seating, dramatic signature lighting, lit door handles and an available panoramic moonroof.
The Cadillac XT5 has luxury features and safety equipment for a top-tier experience. Surround vision, Cadillac CUE, Bose audio, wireless charging, available head-up display, and heated and cooled front seats are just the beginning. Under the hood is a standard-equipment 3.6-liter V6 with 310 horsepower that you’ll love driving.
Cadillac sold 68,312 XT5 units in 2017. Because it wasn’t available for the whole 2016 calendar year, the numbers are skewed – it shows a 73 percent year-over-year increase from its 39,485 2016 sales. It’s a respectable debut on the list of best selling luxury SUVs.
1. Lexus RX: 108,307
The best selling luxury SUV is the Lexus RX. That encompasses several trims including RX 350, RX 450h, F Sport versions, and the new three-row 350 L and 450hL. It boasts sexy styling on the outside with one of the most recognizable looks up front, premium interior equipment, and a fun-to-drive attitude.
You’ll thoroughly appreciate the wide-screen Enform screen at the top of the dash, available remote touch, and the color heads-up display. The RX 350’s 295 horsepower and the RX4 450h’s 308 combined horsepower rating make it thoroughly enjoyable to drive.
For 2017, the Lexus RX sold 108,307 units. That’s down 1 percent from its 2016 sales. However, that’s far removed from the rest of the competition.
