    SPIED: Cadillac SRX

    The last time we saw spy photos of the 2013 Cadillac SRX, it was covered in camouflage and there was talk of a plug-in hybrid version.

    Fast forward to today and new spy shots show the 2013 SRX with no camouflage and no plug-in hybrid.

    Our spy shots show the SRX getting a modest update, with the front end getting a new grill and fascia.

    The SRX will also sport a new interior, with a capacitive-touch center stack, much like the one on the new XTS.

    And if you're wonder what happened to the plug-in hybrid SRX, that has been shelved.

    No need for a hybrid at the prices an SRX or a Lexus RX are selling for these days. A hybrid would be a poor value. Besides, that is what the Chevy Volt is for, even though it is an E-REV not a hybrid.

    The new grille visually lightens up the sheer heft of the front end on this vehicle, which always seemed ready to tip up on its nose to me. Slimmer headlights would have been a nice change, as well imo, which would work to change the proportion of the front view from "high and narrow" to "lower and wider".

    • Had a coworker who just bought one as the VW dealership had the fully loaded ID.Buzz with MSRP of $72,595 marked down to $29K with a butt load of VW discounts and the dealer wanted to get rid of it. He said the same thing you did, but at the price, he thinks it will be an awesome local use auto for the family and kids. Totally agree that my EV9 is a far better purchase than this for the original prices.
    • This thing was a bust before any tariffs. It has abysmal range, not enough real storage that minivan buyers want, it tried to be too much of a throwback without adding true minivan capabilities, and it was priced far too high for what it offered. 230 miles of range for something like this is ridiculous. I wanted one once they first showed them, but I wouldn't consider something with that kind of range for 60-70k. Name one reason to buy the VW ID.Buzz over your EV6. Looks..? That's about all it has going for it. 
    • I hate how this looks as of right now. Maybe it will be something that grows on me. I know the current Silverado and HD were hideous to me at the beginning, too, then they grew on me. I'm not sure if this will do that or not, but I don't like it right now.  I'm sure the overall package is stellar and up to the latest standards or creating new standards for EVs.  Also, BMW needs to get their naming in check (along with Merc). This is silly, IMO; BMW iX3 50 xDrive. 
    • I love how the hatchback looks. The sedan is very "meh", to me. 147hp/132lb-ft sounds super weak so it better be hitting some pretty big mpg numbers mated to a CVT.
