XRT AWD AWD
What the XRT AWD adds over the SE RWD Standard Range (+$11,275)
The $11,275 gap buys a second motor (168 hp to 320 hp, 258 to 446 lb-ft), a 23mm suspension lift with higher ground clearance, terrain modes, more collision-avoidance systems, Highway Driving Assist 2, Surround View Monitor, Bose audio, hands-free liftgate, wireless charging, Digital Key 2, V2L outlet, and XRT-specific exterior cladding.
Pick the SE RWD Standard Range if: You want rear-wheel drive, lower cost, and do not need off-road capability. · Pick the XRT AWD if: You want dual-motor power, higher ground clearance, terrain modes, and expanded safety features.
