On the bright side, the hydraulic power steering is precise and confident. It's not sprightly or nimble, though, due to the combination of rather tall transmission gearing and its substantial 4,500-pound curb weight. But thanks to the engine's 265 pound-foot torque plateau, at just 2,400 rpm, the whole setup feels relaxed-and 60 mph comes on in a relatively quick seven seconds. The 2013 SRX has confident acceleration, although we can't say that it feels anywhere as sprightly as the Acura MDX, Lincoln MKX, or Lexus RX 350. All-wheel-drive SRX crossovers have a a Haldex setup with an electronic limited-slip rear differential providing excellent traction in bad weather. Front- or all-wheel-drive models are available. The SRX continues with the new 308-hp 3.6-liter V-6 and 6-speed automatic that were added for 2012. Thanks to well-contoured seats, front and back-including extending thigh bolsters in front and a good seating height-we find this interior very passenger-friendly. The 2013 SRX interior also features a revised steering wheel, and shift knob design, a new instrument cluster which incorporates a revised driver information center for CUE, and a new Light Titanium interior color choice, which is matched with new Raven Sapele wood color accents. By sampling cabin noise with a microphone, the computer will counteract the sound waves through the audio system. The interface has HD radio, Bluetooth with audio streaming, and the ability to pair up to 10 Bluetooth devices.Ĭadillac has taken a comfortable, well-hushed interior and made it quieter for 2013 with new active noise cancellation. The screen powers up out of the dash and hides a storage bin. The touch-based system responds to swipes, taps, and generates haptic feedback to positively confirm those gestures. From an 8-inch screen, almost all functions for the vehicle are now controlled via touch. But the big news is that the cabin of all 2013 SRX models will feature Cadillac's new CUE infotainment interface.
