In concept, it isn't a bad way to make it clear what is what like the Germans do. You know an X1, X3, X5, Q3, Q5, etc are crossovers. You know 3 series, C Class, A3, A5, etc are cars. That is what JDN tried to do.
I much prefer names myself, but if you are going to do alphanumeric naming structure, do it in a way that clearly tells you what is what. Issue with Cadillac is they didn't do this from the get go and their models already had name cache, etc so it was a bit too late to fix it....
But at least XT-Something CT-Something isn't as stupid as putting the torque in nm on the back instead of the size of the engine.....
