Lambda-based Cadillac crossover is still a go

Cadillac XTS Concept

General Motors is currently hard at work at the next-generation of its large full-size SUV lineup that includes the Cadillac Escalade. The next-geneartion giant SUVs will arrive sometime in 2013. However, the Lambda platform based Caddy SUV we’ve been hearing about for sometime now is still a go.

Karl Stracke, GM’s vice president of global engineering, says that a Lambda-based Cadillac crossover is on its way. Stracke did not confirm when the model will show up.

The Lambda platform also underpins GM’s Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse and GMC Acadia crossovers.

Expect Caddy’s version of the SUV to have an XTS Concept like front-face with power coming from the company’s 3.6L direct-injected V6.
