 The 2013 Cadillac SRX receives a minor face-lift, as well, with a revised front grille and two new sets of chrome and polished aluminum 20-inch wheels.

New SRX safety systems include radar-based crash avoidance systems (compared to the camera-based systems on the Chevy Equinox and GMC Terrain). These optional crash avoidance systems include features like front and rear automatic braking, which help mitigate front and rear low-speed collision by first warning the inattentive driver, and then coming to a full-stop if necessary.

The one area Cadillac doesn’t tweak is under the hood. The 2013 SRX carries over with the 3.6-liter V-6 it got last year. Under the hood of the front- or all-wheel-drive SRX, the six-cylinder engine produces 308 hp and 265 lb-ft of torque.

The 2013 Cadillac SRX will hit dealers in the fall of this year.
