2010 specifications

In 2010, Cadillac marked a significant year with the introduction of models that blended luxury, performance, and advanced technology. Known for its American heritage and bold design, Cadillac cemented its reputation in the luxury automotive market with several innovative features in its lineup.

One of the most prominent models in 2010 was the Cadillac SRX, a midsize luxury crossover SUV. The SRX was lauded for its striking exterior design, which featured a bold grille, sharp lines, and an aggressive stance. Under the hood, the SRX was equipped with a range of powerful engine options, including a robust 3.0-liter V6 engine that provided a smooth yet dynamic driving experience. For those seeking even more performance, an optional 2.8-liter turbocharged V6 offered increased power and responsiveness.

A notable feature of the 2010 SRX was its focus on technology and connectivity. Cadillac’s CUE (Cadillac User Experience) system was a standout, featuring an advanced touchscreen interface that allowed drivers to access navigation, entertainment, and communication controls seamlessly. Integration with smartphones became increasingly important, and the SRX came with features like Bluetooth connectivity and USB ports to ensure compatibility with various devices.

Another highlight of Cadillac's 2010 lineup was the CTS sedan, which combined luxury with sportiness. The CTS was celebrated for its precise handling and powerful performance, thanks in part to its available 3.6-liter V6 engine and the sport-tuned CTS-V variant, which boasted a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 producing staggering horsepower. This blend of performance and luxury was complemented by an upscale interior, featuring high-quality materials, comfortable seating, and sophisticated design.

Safety was also a priority for Cadillac in 2010. The brand equipped its vehicles with advanced safety features such as stability control, numerous airbags, and optional driver-assistance technologies like blind spot monitoring and rear parking assist, providing peace of mind for drivers and passengers alike.
