2010 Cadillac SRX

Pop-Up Three-Dimensional Navigation
We love the available, easy-to-use pop-up navigation system with its nifty-looking three-dimensional imaging. . . and the fact that accurate "Turn by Turn" aural directions are also readily available through GM's OnStar.

Advanced All-Wheel Drive
The SRX's advanced all-wheel-drive system available with the 3.0-liter engine features an electronic limited-slip differential (eLSD) that enables it to distribute torque from side-to-side across the rear as well as front-to-rear, and it comes with continuously variable real-time damping that adjusts shock-absorber rates to road conditions.

The new SRX's artfully designed cabin blends new technology with old-world craftsmanship. The instrument panel wears hand-cut-and-sewn coverings, and subtle ambient night lighting lends an atmosphere of opulence and attention to detail. The center stack houses large, easy to use controls for climate and audio systems, while the available navigation screen rises on demand from its top surface. Especially impressive at night are Cadillac script logos in the front door sill plates that illuminate when the doors are opened.

The 2010 SRX's bold face is dominated by Cadillac's iconic shield-shaped grille and vertical headlamps that wrap over the front fenders. Its tightly sculpted body has a wide stance with its wheels at the corners and a rising shoulder that culminates in Cadillac-signature large, vertical taillamps. A crisp side accent crease sweeps upward from the tip of a chrome front fender vent to the rear door handle, while another runs horizontally from the bottom of the vent, over the rear wheel to the rear bumper. An integrated spoiler on the back edge of the roof extends the roofline while improving aerodynamics.

The standard 265-horsepower 3.0-liter DOHC direct injected, variable valve timing, four-valve-per-cylinder V6 is a smaller version of the award-winning 3.6-liter DI V6 found in Cadillac's CTS sedan and other GM models, and the optional 300-horsepower 2.8-liter turbo V6 is derived from a family of GM engines used in luxury European models. Both drive the front wheels through six-speed automatic transaxles, the 2.8-liter turbo's with a driver-selectable "eco mode" that alters shift points to optimize fuel economy.
