Cadillac SRX 2012 hits
dealerships next month, and although the majority of its new model year
updates are small, there's big news under the hood. General Motors has
decided to ditch both its 3.0-liter naturally aspirated V6 and 2.8-liter
turbocharged V6 in favor of the automaker's more powerful 3.6-liter V6,
an engine found in a variety of applications throughout GM's portfolio.
A new, more powerful 3.6L V-6 headlines the changes for 2012 and becomes the sole engine offered in the SRX. It is rated at 308 horsepower (230 kW) with efficiency-enhancing features including direct injection and continuously variable valve timing. It also delivers 265 lb.-ft. of torque (359 Nm), with peak torque achieved at a low 2,400 rpm and continuing through 5,300 rpm, giving the SRX a greater feeling of acceleration from a standstill, at low speeds and when passing. The 3.6L is also E85 ethanol-capable.
