5 reasons to buy the 2014 Cadillac SRX

1. Comfortable, feature-rich cabin 

Step inside the 2014 Cadillac SRX, and you’ll find yourself in a luxurious and well-equipped cabin with space for all passengers to kick back and relax.

As your passengers get comfortable, they'll also love the standard luxury equipment, including dual-zone automatic climate control, leatherette upholstery, and reclining rear seats. 

2. Stout standard engine 

Under the hood of every 2014 Cadillac SRX is a 3.6L V6 engine, packing a sturdy 308 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque. It’s paired to a six-speed automatic transmission for smooth power delivery, while also being able to accelerate from zero to 60 mph in seven seconds (front-wheel-drive models, when new). It even offers useful pulling power. With the optional towing package and the V6 engine, the 2014 SRX has a maximum estimated towing capacity of up to 3,500 lbs when properly equipped.

 

3. Exciting, dynamic handling 

The 2014 Cadillac SRX offers a smooth and comfortable ride for everyday journeys while also being able to put a smile on your face when you want to cut loose. For enhanced grip and acceleration, all-wheel drive is an option on all trims aside from Base models. Want more? Look for the SRX Performance models, which add a sports-tuned suspension, adaptive dampers, and variable-effort power steering to optimize handling. Turn off the highway and take the back roads home to have a lot of fun with the 2014 SRX.  

4. Strong feature selection 

The 2014 Cadillac SRX has a stacked feature list from top to bottom. Even base models offer an array of desirable tech features, like the Cadillac User Experience™ infotainment system with an eight-inch touchscreen display, Bluetooth® connectivity, and an eight-speaker sound system. For peak luxury and comfort, select the Luxury trim — just one up from the base model — and you’ll get a panoramic sunroof, full leather upholstery, heated front seats, and the option to equip an upgraded ten-speaker Bose® surround-sound system. 

5. Numerous available driver convenience features 

To make daily driving as stress-free as possible, the 2014 Cadillac SRX offers a complete selection of driver convenience technologies to choose from.
