2013 Cadillac SRX Luxury

The SRX is Cadillac's mid-size luxury crossover, the one you'd cross-shop with the Lexus RX and the Acura MDX. It's a smooth, quiet cruiser that eats up highway miles, and the available sport mode sharpens the throttle response nicely. The front seats are roomy and comfortable, but the rear bench sits a bit upright and tall passengers may find headroom tight. Cargo space is a strong point for this crossover, and the power liftgate makes loading easy. The Luxury trim adds leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a power liftgate over the base SRX, while skipping the Performance's sport-tuned suspension. Its 3.6L V6 makes 308 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque, routed through a six-speed automatic to the front-wheel drive, which returns 19 mpg combined. This Luxury trim can be had with a dual-pane sunroof and a navigation system, but the ride is tuned for comfort rather than cornering sharpness.
