How Different Is The New Cadillac XT5 To The Outgoing SRX?

At a first glance, the new XT5 looks like a modernization and evolution of the SRX. It retains the same shape and proportion, but it’s in the detailing where it distances itself from the older model.

How different are they? Well, using the very limited number of photos we have so far, we tried to put the two cars alongside in a gallery and gauge just how big a change has been made.

The styling could definitely be called evolutionary, even if the front is quite radically different; it’s the only major point of difference compared to the SRX, apart from the interior which we haven’t seen yet – we’re sure it’s much classier than what the SRX came with…

The XT5 is a fine looking crossover if we ever saw one, but they could maybe have been more imaginative with the shaping of the side profile – that’s where many designers these days are getting creative with pronounced dips, creases or unusual volume-creating curves.
