Cadillac's latest designs are all full of sharp edges and well-defined creases, and the new SRX is no different in that respect. The 2010 Cadillac SRX looks very much part of the family, and is far less slab-sided than the outgoing truck.Its design impact starts with a jutting, pointed nose, very complex headlamps, and a racy, rounded lower spoiler with a large air intake for engine cooling. The side window treatment ends in a forward-slanted D-pillar leading to the Cadillac trademark knife-sharp vertical taillamps. All in all, it's a very pleasing, crisp and modern design on a chassis that is nearly six inches shorter than the original SRX, with a 4.6-inch shorter overall length, and a 2.1-inch lower roofline. But is also about an inch wider, allowing for more interior comfort and more shoulder and hip room. The SRX features a power liftgate that can be set for full opening, or programmed for three-quarter opening to keep the sheetmetal safe in low-roofed garages and parking structures.
