Overview & Reviews
A new three-spoke steering wheel is the only noteworthy change made for the 2008 Cadillac SRX.
- Excellent ride and handling dynamics, strong V6 and V8 engines, roomy and comfortable interior, optional third-row seat.
- Mediocre fuel mileage, old-school six-step tilt steering wheel, overly offset brake and accelerator pedal heights, a few low-grade interior materials.

My New Vehicle! - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By Mickey - July 8 - 8:33 amI have always been loyal to GM. This time, I purchased instead of leasing so I drove everything, BMW, Volvo, Maxda, Acura and settled on the SRX. I couldnt be happier, the ride is beautiful, the inside "top notch" not like the Enclave which was my first choice after I traded the Buick Rendezvous. Rear seat leg room better than any car I test drove. I am 6 feet tall and the vehicle is very, very comfortable all the way around. The extra seating in the cargo is useless to me so those will always stay down.

Best Car Yet - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By dalviking - June 24 - 2:39 pmThis car has it all. It handles like a sports sedan and runs smoothly with plenty of power. As far as mileage is concerned it meets the mfg sticker - about 17 around town and 24 on the road . We have had no problems in the first year and plan to keep it for a long time . Love the way it handles on the road - like a high speed touring sedan.

Long time wanted! - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By sunnyla - April 15 - 4:30 pmMy wife and I had been planning for a Honda Pilot or Toyota Highlander for a while, until we came across SRX at Edmunds.com. We got both dealer and consumer rebates of the month. Now we have it, love it and cant live without it.

What a surprise! - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By Mike D - March 12 - 5:41 pmI have only purchased Japenese luxury cars for the past 20 years. This was the perfect storm, Lexus and Acura didnt ring my bell. I hate Infinity and I can never see eye to eye with the German companies. I decided to look at the Cadillacs. No way I was buying one, but I looked anyway. The test drive was fantastic. After much internal agonizing, I went back. There were large rebates in play and they had exactly what I was looking for. I pulled the trigger! I have never enjoyed a vehicle more. Wonderful engineering, beautiful fit and finish and a great stereo system. It has it all, size, comfort, power and a wonderful 50/50 weight distribution. Kudos to the new Cadillac management!

By Pierre - February 25 - 9:58 pmOn a trip in Maine on the cruise control very good acceleration. Road handling remarquable. On ice covered of snow in the left lane it is magic

Traded in our 2006 Lexus 400h - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By crossbuilder - February 16 - 1:58 pmIm 75 years old, have owned countless cars, and this is the best all around vehicle to date. The Lexus 400h [yes it rattled]was the 2nd worst, which barely beat out the 1974 Chevy Vega.

I love my SRX - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By CindyB - February 12 - 9:45 amI got exactly what I was expecting when I purchased my SRX. I rented a 2007 model while on vacation and fell in love with it. I got back from vacation and bought one four days later. I bought it fully loaded and do not regret my choice.

Our best car yet! - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By ROJO340 - December 31 - 10:39 pmWe traded a 2005 Escalade in on this car. I was very pleased with the Escalade and was hesitant at first with the SRX, but wow. We got the magnet ride, and it cant be better. Cadillac is missing the boat by not advertising this car as much as the others. We tested the Enclave and the Acadia. Go with the Caddy.

A Smashing Looker - 2008 Cadillac SRX
By Linda Winfield - September 10 - 5:24 pmI cant get enough of driving this car. The ride is excellent. And I love to see heads turn when they approach the vehicle. GM has done their homework.
