For car shoppers looking to upgrade their crossover this fall, the 2012 Cadillac SRX is now available at Crown Cadillac, a leading NJ Cadillac dealer.

As the Cadillac SRX surged in popularity in 2011—with sales rising 18 percent—the luxury midsize sedan is back for an ever bigger year, equipped with even bigger power for NJ Cadillac shoppers.

The Cadillac SRX has undergone some serious powertrain revamping for 2012. An all-new 3.6L direct-injected V6 engine boasts 308 horsepower, replacing the 2011 model’s 3.0L engine with 265 horsepower.

The change makes the SRX the most powerful vehicle in its class, as far as standard engines go. And while the engine is bigger, it attains comparable fuel efficiency to its 2011 model. The more mass-efficiently designed engine includes an “eco” mode for fuel optimization, as well as a new six-speed transmission to help cut back on gas.

“We’re taking a winning product in the SRX and reaching higher,” said Don Butler, vice president of marketing for Cadillac. “The crossover category is one of the biggest and most important segments in the luxury market. SRX has performed very well and is the best selling Cadillac worldwide, but our approach is not to leave well enough alone.”

Redesigned SRX Offers NJ Cadillac Shoppers More Power

The Cadillac SRX promises the practicality of a crossover with the power of a sports car— of course while incorporating Cadillac’s luxurious trademark into the mix.

NJ Cadillac drivers will maintain ultimate driving stability with the SRX’s state-of-the-art All Wheel Drive system with electronic limited slip rear differential that distributes power from the front to back. It can also distribute power across the rear axle depending on driving conditions and traction. The chassis includes Adaptive Real-Time damping technology for stellar riding control, plus rain sensing automatic windshield wipers connected to the brake system, keeping rotors dry when stopping wet conditions.

The 2012 SRX is equipped with the best and brightest headlights, including HID headlamps with adaptive forward lighting. The media features are stacked, starting with the Bose 5.1 surround sound system. It also has navigation, a full-color LCD screen and a rear-view camera system. OnStar comes standard and features helpful apps like myCadillac and OnStar RemoteLink, as well as Stolen Vehicle Assistance.

Shoppers will be instantly lured in by other fantastic luxury convevience features, including Bluetooth, an optional heated steering wheel, a xenon Blue Metallic exterior paint option that will be available in the fall, an all-ebony interior option with contrast stitching and a new 20-inch wheel finish option.
