Despite so many similarities, there are several differences that set the Cadillac apart from the Lexus. The first and probably most obvious difference here is in size and price. Sure, the Lexus seats 7 vs the Cadillac’s 5, but the Lexus starting at a higher price point that would only go up with the addition of features. On top of that, the 2015 Cadillac SRX also offers a premium Bose speaker system and OnStar Directions and Connections. Those two features can take a drive from a hassle to a great experience. The SRX also comes with an engine that delivers more horsepower and torque. Also coming in at a lighter weight, the Cadillac has a slightly faster acceleration and can tow up to 2,500 lbs! There really seems to be no question as to which vehicle rises to the competitive occasion.
