2010 Cadillac SRX
"The next-generation SRX is the result of the continued exploration and refining of Cadillac design language, with the goal of creating dramatic presence in the luxury crossover space," this are the words of Clay Dean - Cadillac design director. "The next-generation SRX, along with the new CTS Sport Wagon, showcases Cadillac taking its dramatic design into new directions, particularly cars and crossovers that are the right size at the right time for today's luxury consumers," by Jim Taylor - Cadillac general manager.
Basically given the name Cadillac BRX, the new model will arrive as the 2010 Cadillac SRX. With an impressive 41 inches of legroom in the second row, the Cadillac SRX will offer comfort for four 6-foot adults. An optional fold-flat 3ird-row seat is also available. But its 24 inches of legroom is suitable only for the children. Nevertheless, the 3rd row is ideal for families that occasionally need to carry an extra child or two on short trips. It might seem to be a known model for you only because the concept of this powerhouse car was introduced to the world back in August and the design of the car that was unveiled is quite similar to the finished one.
2010 Cadillac SRX will once again appear in the Detroit auto show in the end of this month. With some advanced technology SRX is comparatively smaller than the model it is going to replace. You will not find some of the features like cargo capacity, rear-wheel drive, third-row seats and legroom in this new model. Instead it offers more fuel-efficiency and more fantastic appointments.
2010 Cadillac SRX boosts a number of luxury features. SRX has got a pop-up navigation system, which is quite similar to that of the CTS. The other Cadillac accessories include 18/20 inch wheels, vertical headlights, chrome fender vents and so on. It also features a leather cover and a dual-screen rear entertainment system, which is an option for SRX.
The buyers will be provided a choice between all-wheel drive and front-wheel drive. Though both the models offer great traction control, the AWD model moves one step ahead with the rear eLSD. The system also helps the driver to get better control on the car during a high-speed maneuver. If the road condition is icy or wet the system has the capability of transferring up to 100% of torque to the wheel that offers more grip.
The exterior features a dramatic diving gesture on the body side to impart the feeling of movement, even at rest. A multi-piece SRX grille and Cadillac's iconic vertical headlamps - with light pipe technology and available adaptive forward lighting - are the face of the SRX. Additional safety SRX accessories include standard front seat-mounted pelvic/thorax side airbags and head curtain side airbags, front safety belts with load limiters, a pedal release system, rollover mitigation sensors, trailer stability assist and OnStar.
The 2010 SRX accessories feature numerous advanced electronic solutions. Highlights include a "pop-up" navigation screen featuring 3D imaging; power liftgate with adjustable height setting; adaptive forward lighting that swivels the headlamps in synch with vehicle steering; integrated hard disc drive for audio storage and a dual-screen system for rear entertainment.
In spite this model is brand new and hot, aftermarket producers already began to manufacture 2010 SRX parts like custom grilles, xenon kits, chrome accessories and others. Search the internet and convince your self. SRX is a fine made crossover but custom parts won’t spoil its exterior and vise versa will add stylish trends.
