| 2007 | 4dr SUV 320-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The car is very comfortable to ride in. My SRX has all the bells and whistles with electric seat controls. I often adjust the lumbar support to my needs depending on how bad my back is hurting that day. Heated seats also make for a very warm tush on a cold day. see full Cadillac SRX review |

Much smaller compare to the R-class. The third row is a joke. see full Cadillac SRX review |

For how big the SRX looks, it's passenger space is somewhat craped. It's not terrible by any means, but it's not very roomy either. see full Cadillac SRX review |
