New Car Test Drive Review

Summary:

Crossover SUV offers sporty driving experience.
By New Car Test Drive, NewCarTestDrive.com

The Cadillac SRX makes an appealing package. It delivers as much or more functionality, space and all-weather capability as most sport utilities, but it's wrapped in a distinctive package and delivers a spirited driving experience. It's no wonder other luxury carmakers are following Cadillac's cue and creating vehicles like the SRX. The SRX remains one of our top choices in this class. The V8 is sportier and more fun to drive than a Lexus RX 330 or Mercedes M-Class, and it has more room and a better ride than a BMW X5. A V6 SRX with all-wheel drive compares favorably with a Volvo XC90, both in price and performance.

NewCarTestDrive.com correspondent Michelle Krebs filed the original report from Arizona, with Mitch McCullough reporting from Los Angeles.

Overview:

Cadillac may not have created the recipe that makes the SRX, but it has come close to perfecting it. This is one utility vehicle that does it all. It has the driving dynamics of a good luxury sedan, the all-weather capability of some truck-based SUVs and the space and functionality of a minivan.

The Cadillac SRX is a good choice among luxury SUVs, if you can call it an SUV. It drives like a European sedan and its edgy styling stands out in a sea of boxy sport-utilities and minivans. Yet the SRX is quite practical. It can carry up to seven passengers, and its flat, carpeted cargo area works great for hauling cargo.

Its sharp handling, quick acceleration and high-performance braking make for a sporty, enjoyable experience with a smooth, extremely quiet ride.

The SRX comes trimmed with leather upholstery and is loaded with luxury features. The interior is stylish and comfortable. Its flat cargo floor makes the SRX a good dog car.

SRX is available with a V6 or V8 engine. Both engines feature the latest technology, including electronic throttle control and four overhead cams with fully variable valve timing. The V8s are smooth and confident and deliver brilliant acceleration for a vehicle of this size. All-wheel drive is available and we've found that the SRX performs superbly in the snow.

Overall improvements to the SRX for 2007 include an all-new cockpit with new design, materials and hand-crafted assembly process. Cadillac also has mated the Northstar V8-equipped models to a new fully electronic six-speed automatic transmission for 2007. The base audio system for the SRX has now been upgraded to Bose for 2007.

New options for 2007 include a Sport package with 20-inch wheels, all-wheel drive and limited slip differential; a Bose 5.1 digital surround sound option; a Theater option package with Bose 5.1 digital surround sound, navigation and rear-seat entertainment; an automatic odor filtration option; and Passenger Side Inflatable Restraint (PSIR) Suppression, which detects the occupant's size and, in turn, enables or disables the air bag automatically.
