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.

  Excellent SUV - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By abc - April 9 - 2:26 pm

  Although its a large car, I feel like Im driving a luxury vehicle rather than an SUV. Its a great feeling after 9 years of heavy SUV driving. Cadillac, you did it!

  Well worth it - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Ian Echeverria - March 25 - 9:13 pm

  I have to admit that after test driving the Volvo XC90, Lexus RX330, and VW Tourag that I was impressed by the handling and quaility of the SRX. Comparing size, class, and options it is the best in class in my opinion. Whats best about the Cadillac SRX is the the price beats the other 3 and the quality doesnt suffer. Finally an American SUV that competes with the others and can hold its ground. If you dont believe take it for a drive and feel the difference.

  Fun to drive - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By Bill - March 25 - 11:42 am

  This is the most responsive vehicle I have ever owned. The down side is, if you are not paying attention, you will be doing 80 mph and not know it. The ride is soft, yet sturdy. The steering is crisp and responsive. Gas mileage at 65 mph is in the 20+ mpg. As stated its to easy to do 80 and that lowers mpg to around 17.5 mpg. Put a pinstripe above door handles and you have a great looking sports car that is tuff to get stuck in the mud or snow.

  An unbelievable SUV - 2004 Cadillac SRX
  By hrw5000 - March 22 - 10:00 am

  Just picked up our fully loaded V-8 SRX yesterday. It is truly an unbelievable loaded with more gadgets than I could imagine. Love the looks, the power, and the way it drives. It is unbelievably smooth and blows away the ML500, and is a better overall package than the X5, Cayenne, and FX45. By far the best SUV we have had.

  Highly recommend this vehicle. Handles superbly, fast as a rocket with the V8, great interior room for a tall driver.

  We were fortunate to get a certified used SRX, loaded, it is so beautiful in every way. Great ride with the AWD and handles beautifully. Love it.

  Awesome! - 2005 Cadillac SRX
  By The Contessa - March 16 - 10:00 am

  I test drove several high-end SUVs - this handled the best for the price. Very comfortable inside and out without being overly ostentatious. Ive had Volvos and Porsches and the Cadillac dealership makes you feel like you should when buying a luxury automobile.

  Winner of our test drives! - 2004 Cadillac SRX
  By rszx - February 12 - 2:00 am

  We traded our 2002 Seville STS on our SRX and couldnt be happier. We live in FL in the winter - IN in the summer and were looking for more cargo area for the drive (dog, cat luggage, 5 grandchildren). test drove Lexus RX330, VW Toureg, Infiniti and this was the clear choice in both price and GREAT driving experience!! Handles like a dream. Opted for rwd/no snow in FL.

  Nothing but problems - 2004 Cadillac SRX
  By krob - February 1 - 3:19 am

  I loved this car when I bought it, but very shortly after came to hate it. Door well width too wide. Has 8400 miles and has been in shop for 41 days. 4 times for oil leak, 2 times for part of engine cylinders not running, currently has a loud noise in front struts and vibrates through front floor. Terrible gas mileage - 11 mpg in city. Seats arent very comfortable on long trips.
