Hello,

IOS-XE supports multi-core CPUs.

Another advantage of having a underlying Linux OS is that you easily can run applications like WireShark or WLAN controllers on it.

Here you can find a nice document with more details: What is Cisco IOS XE?

BTW, since IOS predates XE, one might say XE is 99% similar to IOS, not the converse.  ;)
