Cadillac Goes Crossover with the SRX & CTS Wagon
Cadillac is going crossover with their teased SRX. Caddy execs hope this will give a dynamic boost to the name, winning over fans of both luxury automobiles and families who need the extra room for weekend trips. Designer Clay Dean notes: “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…”
At the same time Cadillac leaked SRX renderings they also sent out a press release featuring their CTS Sports Wagon. According the release: “Based on the hot-selling CTS sport sedan, and a sister vehicle to the CTS Coupe Concept, the Sport Wagon extends the design-driven renaissance of Cadillac…With the CTS Sport Wagon’s 3.6L V-6, direct injection translates to 304 horsepower, no loss of fuel efficiency and a 25-percent drop in cold-start hydrocarbon emissions.”
Expect to see both make an appearance at the 2008 Los Angeles Auto Show.
