Overview & Reviews

A luxury crossover SUV, the Cadillac SRX utilizes components and construction more often associated with cars rather than the rugged truck-based underpinnings GM uses for its more traditional SUVs. The result is a more comfortable ride and better handling, along with plenty of versatility unless you need to tackle heavy-duty chores such as towing or off-road travel. Typically priced below European rivals, the SRX makes for a genuinely appealing alternative thanks to its distinctive styling, pleasant driving character and feature-rich cabin.

If you're shopping for a used Cadillac SRX, you'll find early models with either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive and options like a third-row seat and a V8. Later versions of this Cadillac crossover are a bit smaller, with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, two rows of seating and V6 power. Although the newer version sacrifices some space, power and performance, it offers a significantly nicer interior with upgraded materials and technology.

  Very Impressed - 2004 Cadillac SRX
  By Trav Tindal - December 14 - 2:00 am

  I test drove most of the SUVs in this class (BMW, Lexus, etc). But to my surprise, the Cadillac was my choice! I have been very impressed.

  Disappointed Owner - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Bettsey Arnold - December 14 - 12:59 am

  There are several things that I do not like about the 2005 Cadillac SRX. There are quite a few blind spots that are safety concerns. The passenger seat and back seats are very uncomfortable. I have owned other Cadillacs and I am so very disappointed with this one. I am thinking of trading it in for a GMC Yukon or Ford Explorer.

  Driving this vehicle on tips is a pleasure The handling is excellent even in wintry conditions. Passing on two lane roads is a joy. It accelerates quickly and you spend a minimum amount of time in the wrong lane. On ice and snow it is very stable.

  This is not Cadillac Quality - 2006 Cadillac SRX
  By steve - November 26 - 3:07 pm

  We have a 2006 Cadillac SRX and we are not happy with it. Its rear tail lights are ugly and dont fit with the car. Also, it needs to get better gas mileage. I do like the seats though. This vehicle definitely needs some improvements.

  Downsized Caddy and Lovin It! - 2006 Cadillac SRX
  By Luv My SRX! - November 24 - 11:54 pm

  The 2006 Cadillac SRX is awesome! I sold my Escalade a year ago and downsized to GMC Envoy to save money, but I missed the Caddy style and feel. I am 45 years old and this is my mid-life "fun-to-drive SUV." Ive got four great kids and they love it too! It has a powerful V8 engine, great handling, and excllent options like the DVD, Navigation, and Big Sky Glass Roof.

  Wouldnt Buy Again - 2004 Cadillac SRX
  By Kimberly Gasaway - November 14 - 3:11 am

  There is limited rear visibility due to the head rests in the back. of my 2004 Cadillac SRX. This has always been a problem. The panarama roof is rattling like crazy. The rear light popped off when the car was brand new. They said this was due to the heat of the sun. Also, back hatch bent. When this happened and the car had to be in the shop for some time. The paint was never the same. There has been two more recalls since then. Lastly, the finish on the stereo is peeling. I am having too much trouble with my SRX for a brand new luxury car.

  The Best Cadillac Ever! - 2006 Cadillac SRX
  By Robert - November 12 - 11:16 am

  This is my second Cadillac and so far and it is even better than the the frst! I can truly tell that Cadillac has really worked hard to make this car what it is. When I made the hard choice to turn in my CTS to get the SRX I was reluctant, but as soon as I got it I relized I made the right decision. It handled and drove better than my CTS and it is just an overall better vehicle!

  2004 Cadillac SRX - 2004 Cadillac SRX
  By Todd in Jax, FL - November 10 - 9:15 pm

  We traded a 1999 Cadillac DeVille for our 2004 Cadillac SRX. This is a whole different Cadillac. It is tight, athletic, and a willing performer. We love the UltraView sliding roof. The car has as much get up and go as my 2005 Mustang GT. I love the leather and wood trim. My boys love the DVD system and 3rd row seat. I also am enjoying the awesome premium Bose stereo system and of coure OnStar. This is an excellent vehicle!

  My SRX - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Sweets - November 8 - 3:21 am

  I love my new Cadillac SRX. It is the most comfortable SUV that I have ever ridden in or driven. I know they say they are going to make improvements, but as far as I am concerned, it dosent need any.
