Review -- 2010 Cadillac SRX

[Bruce Nunnally]

The first generation SRX was really never the sales success that Cadillac hoped for. Styling on the the first generation made it look like a tall, boxy station wagon. With both an optional third row and V8, the first generation was rear wheel drive with all wheel drive as an option. None of this really lined up with what the mainstream rivals were offering.

For the second generation, Cadillac has taken a much more mainstream approach. The third row option was ditched, front wheel drive and all wheel drive replaced the old drive train and there is no more V8. The largest change is the price. This generation is starting at $33,330 where the first generation was $38,880 for the V6 and $45,880 for the V8. The new SRX is much more competitively priced. You can immediately tell that Cadillac is gunning straight for the RX in every sense of the word. A base SRX is now almost $4,000 less then the starting price of a Lexus RX. So how does it stack up?
