  • caddy doesnt look as well defiened as lexus, maybe but design, adds to the luxary of interor. so while the caddy interor may be made of cheaper materials the design makes it look more expensive

  • @dunemoonbeam3 LMAO,cheaper material,that excuse is kind of old.Caddy has came up in that department.When will you guys realize that.

  • @heartboy86 well thats what this auto reviewer stated, unless i physicaly touched and compared bother cars, i wont know

  • @dunemoonbeam3 No offense but who goes on motor trend for reviews on interiors.You are right however,so take your advice and see for yourself.

  • @heartboy86 cadillac is actualy my favourite luxary brand, but as i live in england I'll prly never get to own one, unless they take advatage of the huge audi/bmw market in europe and draw their customers to cadillac, maybe the brand could make it to the uk

  • @dunemoonbeam3 Caddies and Aston Martin are my two favorite car companies but yea Caddy has come a long ways.Believe it or not Caddy invented alot of car accessories that alot of people don't know about.

  • Lexus vs Buick . . . Not caddillac

  • Also the lexus goes against the Buick Enclave. so everyone knows

  • Lexus doesn't look as good as the caddy.

    The lexus doesn't look like luxury either!

  • @nashville1510 neither of them look or drive as well as Infiniti, BMW, and Audi SUV Crossovers drive and look, so ill take my moms FX50 over these any day ^_^

  • the engine on the 2009-present Cadillac SRX

    Engine

    2.8 L Turbo LP9 HFV6 V6 (2010 only)

    3.0 L LF1 HFV6 V6

    3.6 L LFX V6 (2012)

  • I read a used car report here in Canada a few months ago that said some owners of the SRX(older models of course) said that after some years of use the vehicle didn't feel tight anymore, felt loose and some shakes. It is one thing for any manufaturer to get freat reviews and initial quality awards, but it is another thing to talk about that vehicle 3, 5 years down the road etc..

  • i wish cadillac would bring the hood emblems back =(

  • Sorry to say, but, I'd take a Lexus any day of the week (especially because Lexus' are #1 in Reliability of any Luxury Manufacturer, of course it figures, because it's under the Toyota Marque). :D, not completely shitting on Cadillac, because they are nice cars too! :)

  • @Ian74263 Lexus is pretty boring to look at (personal opinion). compare Toyota to current Hyundai and Kia's, both of them are better looking than Toyota, just like the SRX looks better than the RX. first exterior impressions is important to some. to me what good is a reliable car if its boring looking

  • I just bought a Lexus ES350, this is an ultra one, i love it too much , it's so luxurioud, very quite, acceleration is very smooth n powerful, i would buy another Lexus, sorry to say NO to american makes.

  • @wongwuipong for me Lexus cars are boring to look at, I'd prefer Infiniti over Lexus, that's the only Japanese brand that appeals to me, the other Jap brands are pretty boring looking compared to say Cadillac

    what good is a car if its luxurious and reliable but looks boring

  • @kenosisthunder people don't care about looking boring or not. It's all about personal preference. Bimmer, audi and lexus carry pretty much the same price tag. Like LV, gucci and prada bags, it's hard to say which one is much better than the rest. It's better to own all of them.

  • It won because it was more fun to drive? I'm almost positive that 90% of buyers for luxury crossovers don't have "fun to drive" on their shopping list. < That is why the Lexus RX is the best selling luxury SUV ever built.

  • I know people are calling a Lexus a chromed up Toyota but a SRX is a chromed up Equinox that just so happens to be made in Mexico. I'll take the Canadian built Lexus before I buy something made in Mexico.

  • @7477238 Oh I didnt't know Lansing, Michigan was now a part of Mexico... Go figure

  • caddilac is way better than some c

  • RX 350 wins automatically

  • Caddilac looks better !Honestly !

  • Just take a look at the numbers of Lexus RX350 compared with cadillac srx , the answer is clear and straight forward, Lexus RX350 is far more superior in luxury, performance n fun to drive, GM cars just can't catch up.

  • Motortrend is always bias. They just love GM, but when it comes to anything else, there is always a problem. I have driven both the SRX and RX350, and I say the RX350 is far superior. Luxury is about comfort and technology, not about sport. "Fun to drive"...really that’s why you gave it to the SRX. Not cause of the features, or comfort, or interior. If you want something fun, go drive a Mustang, or something with speed and power. Motortrend is full of shit!

  • The JEEP cherokee is better than all them.

  • @1976tech lol sure it is. Put the GC in it's own segment

  • Cadillac is truly luxury. Cadillac SRX betas the lexus rx350. But Mercedes Benz has super luxury cars among all the other luxury car brands. Cadillac is awesome

  • Cadillac may beat lexus but it will never come close to Mercedes GLK, left aside ML

  • Cadillac looks are vastly superior.

  • i wish GM would stop competing, and start setting new standards. till then ill be sticking with 03-06 models

  • @swatsticker What?!? You'd rather buy a slushmobile with an interior made of Tic-Tac boxes? At least the new ones are comparable.

  • it seems that motortrend is a G.M company

  • Obviously Cadillac would win

  • that's a good thing that GM now in compare with lexus.

    and I don't know why you have argument , like a little girls.

    whoever is still young or whoever want some sporty ride, will get a Cadillac

    whoever want their fat asses to be pampered, will get a lexus... ( just kidding . but one bad factor, Lexus rx is becoming just another toyota camry. and u don't want to pay that much for another toyota camry.)

  • in terms driving feel i wldnt know but clearly CADILLAC looks so much better the grill the shape, the dash board mmmmh) most likely youtube lexus fans jus love this particular lexus for the sake of the brand name otherwise for some of us who've done business studies we know the effect of the brandname on average pple its like the usual ordinary lookin latest nike shoe pple go crazy abt & buy them jus becoz they wanna be seen wearing nike

  • Subliminal photographer in the bushes! 1:52

  • wheres the lincoln mkt

  • LEXUS :) 

  • This Caddy is just too vulgar on the outside and too dull on the inside. I'm sorry but the verdict is just incorrect.

  • I dont agree with the verdict at all Cadillac SRX is ugly and American who the hell is going to buy that crap over Lexus?Japan Rules when it come to cars over america, so Cadillac SRX sucks.

  • srx sucks.

    

  • if money is an issue, buy the Lexus, if you have the money, go with the Lac

  • It's always the same ole tired ass complaints Lexus being too soft and luxurious, it's a fucking luxury car buy a sports car or this tall ass CTS bootleg plastic lookin motherfucker," It's more sporty ", but it's actually slower than the RX, the only advantages I noticed them point out was their opinion of the vehicles styling and that the Lexus cabin and performance was too "isolated" I guess road noise and stiff steering are a plus when purchasing a luxury midsize SUV? FOHWTBS

  • @Lakeemgetsmoney every time i see that piece of shit lexus it makes me want to throw up, it's a piece of shit ugly ass asian car, and lexus as a brand was pretty shitty and subpar until the lfa came out...its just jap crap, seriously. Only an idiot would buy lexus toyota crap...it's shit

  • @CARandDRlVER you motherfucker you know nothing about cars toyota and honda are the 2 number one selling cars in the fucking world.

  • @skaterdude5651 not true. toyota is #1, GM is #2, but GM sales are sky rocketing, and Toyota sales are actually falling fast, so GM is projected to overtake Toyota very shortly as world's largest car company

  • @ken060693 yes i guess I should agree with that but accually gm is falling because gm is the type of company that sells lots of car but makes the worst cars on the road. 2000 - 2011, 23 gm cars have been in lots of websites like the worst cars on the road, top 10 worst cars, and etc

  • @skaterdude5651 i would have to disagree with you about that. i mean, GM does still have some crap, but for the most part, they're one-by-one really improving. the corvette is now the fastest video-confirmed production car around nurburgring, the cruze is really nice, and is outselling the civic, corolla, camry, etc...the cts-v is great too. i admit the impala needs to be fixed, they need to get rid of the escalade, etc. also

  • @ken060693 true. Ok I agree with you now. But TOYOTA IS THE BEST!! LOL

  • @ken060693 nothing wrong with the escalade, 2013 is the year where both the impala and the cadillac escalade will have "all new" successors introduced,

  • @CHUUMPASS the escalade is basically a tahoe with some minor interior mods that over priced

  • twat a total crock of shit they really to spun the fuck out of this comparison from beginning to end. First of all the design is a matter of opinion. IMO the Rx styling is far more distinctive than the SRX/ CTS/ CTS Wagon/ Chevrolet Equinox ect....... Notice there was no mention of actual performance specs, the RX has a 10hp advantage over the SRX and post a second faster 0-60, but who is looking for hard edge performance in a luxury midsize FWD SUV, certainly not the millions of RX owners.

  • Comment removed

  • cadillacs are sooo beautiful!!! c:

  • @mastrubite its a chevy equinox

  • @keeperrice uhm noo??... its a Cadillac SRX and looks way better than the chevy equinox.

  • I will take the Lexus.

  • In my opinion, The Cadillac SRX is the Best Luxury SUV in the Market. The Lexus RX350 is the most Fuel Efficient.

  • Cadillac and Lincoln's are underrated. They make the most reliable cars out there.

  • @heartlessvietboy Oh yeah. Lexus is 3,000 stages away more reliable

  • The Reason why I'd Give the Lexus RX to my wife is because its a quiet and smooth car. Lexus means Luxury. Wood Trim and Carpeting is made for Females with High Heels. As for me, I take the SRX because it's built well. Ride is controlled and suspension is stiffer.

  • motor trend always picks the brands that i don't like to be the winner. they obviously do not care about reliability, so that's one of the factors why the srx won. plus, gm probably pays motor trend money to make their cars first place instead of their rivals.

  • @zizzlefiggle1469 toyota is a major motortrend sponsor. go on their website and count all the toyota ads...and the android/iphone motortrend app used to be covered in toyota ads

  • Both the Cadillac SRX and Lexus RX are reliable cars. It's how you drive and maintain the car. I'll Give the Lexus RX350 to my Wife and Drive the Cadillac SRX. Both Brand new in my Garage.

  • @heartlessvietboy couldn't have said it better, the lexus is the "woman" anyway, compared to the cadillac. :)

  • The Lexus looks like the RAV4.

  • If you think the Lexus RX350 Looks Like a Toyota RAV4, you need to go get Glasses.

  • @arthurpar ARE YOU A FUCKING IDIOT

  • haha wrong decision...

  • @CrashJSTest  Troll!

  • UR AN IDIOT

    lexus is SOOOOOOOOOO much better

  • Based on fun to drive we give it to Cadillac... YEAH RIGHT!!! Based on biased opinion Cadi was given "the winner" as it is American car.

  • @whatever04811  Troll!

  • @whatever04811 Correct.

  • how did cadaillac win if its american and lexus looses when its japanese, all my family has 5 of these cars event the one in canada and they are like the best veichles. so sad and mad to hear this

  • Cadillac!!

  • I think the Cadillac is the better car!

  • @kingermanfool NO man the lexus is way better i don't care about "better handling" or "attitude" when it comes to crossovers. based on comfort, reliability, and maybe a bit of "brand snobbery", i'd give it to the lexus.

  • ....................... Audi Q5

  • @kakakarlyn No. Just No.

  • WHAT???????????? THE CADDY WON. THE CADDY IS NIT EVEN CLOSE TO THE LEXUS IN STYLE AND RELIABILITY. THE RX BEATS IT 10 TO 1. HAVE YOU SEEN WHERE THE CADDY IS BUILT?????? RAMOS ARIZPE MEXICO!!!!!

  • when I was a kid I used think Lexus was an European automaker...lol. I dislike Japanese cars. Now it all l boils down to Japanese vs American!

  • raspier noise?!!! This review was not objective!

  • The Cadillac is a more than excellent vehicle, My neighbor has the 2010 RX, my Brother in Georgia also has the Lexus RX, after driving both my neighbors RX and my Brothers, RX , I was positively sold on the Cadillac SRX, it is the hands down best, regarding, appearance, performance, road feel, however the SRX is not a fuel miser

  • CADILLAC FTW!!!! Wtf Lexus did with the front of the RX...Previous version was looking better.

  • Cadillac all the way ! it's a classic american motoring.

  • overpriced or not to u...cadillac has shit resale value

  • I prefer the SRX over the RX. The Lexus is a solid truck but the Cadillac is just better. People can call it an overpriced GM if they want but as long as GM is pumping out cars of that level they can call them "turds" and I will take one. I drive a 2010 Equinox and its GREAT. GM really stepped things up with this truck. So my next move will be the SRX of the Traverse. My BFF has a RX and the steering is TERRIBLE Its FEELS electronic. As if its pulling in the opposite direction that your stirring

  • i would give it to the lexus, the only advantage the cadillac has in my veiw is the touch screen

  • The Cadillac SRX wins this one. However don't give up on the RX350. After all, its a Lexus.

  • @tnguyen318 ?? Based on what?

  • Lexus has won many awards however Cadillac has been building excellent cars. Their workmanship reflects in the 2011 SRX. Quality and Attention to detail has outdone Lexus.

  • @tnguyen318 That's very subjective. The RX 350's trim in more sleeker than the SRX's which with time, it gets outdated than the RX's. Smooth rides makes the RX a winner. The rise up feature of the SRX nav is more on butter rather than practicality. That's why we love our RX. Plus it's reliability too makes it a winner. 

  • Subjective isn't a good word. If its not a subject, what else can it be?

  • @tnguyen318 dude have you got something stuck in your head or something the only thing that wasnt better than the lexus was the quality and attention to detail..god is it that hard to actually listen to the review

  • Quality is in the overall result not how much time you put in the car. You can spend hours on something yet the final result is even worse than someone only spending 1/2 hour. The lines on the Lexus are beautiful. Steering Wheel, Wood Gloss and Door Panels. However Cadillac Themselves also have spent great time in designing their interior.

  • Should have added Volvo XC60, Audi A5 and BMW X3 to the comparison. As far as the design goes, I like Cadillac much more. Lexus looks ugly IMHO.

  • you seem to be changing the story

  • these are among the most uncompetitive crossovers in their class. The Volvo XC60, Audi Q5, and BMW X3 should be in a "kind of crossovers competition"

  • srx ftw!

  • both ugly, buy qashquai.

  • im actually proud to be from michigan

  • BULLL!

    LEXUS ALLWAYS WINS!!!!!!!!!!

  • @loke1273

    Maybe awhile ago. You should try AMERICAN!

  • do a search for Toyota Harrier and you will see

  • actually for a long time "lexus" was just a north american brand over in japan all the models were actually toyotas

  • Comment removed

  • Calling a Lexus an over-priced Toyota...is like calling a Cadillac an over-priced Chevrolet. Same inaccurate assessment.

  • @Hesought

    Well thats because its an overpriced GM.

  • @Hesought

    LOLLL TRUE THAT!

  • @Hesought

    Thats not true tho! No cadillac looks like a chevy!

  • @nashville1510 and no lexus looks like a toyota

  • @Hesought shows how much you know. they share most of the same parts. in case you didnt know toyota makes lexus and chevy make cadillac. your an idiot

  • except the cadillacs look IDENTICAL to the chevy's with a little excess bling. at least lexus changes it up a little

  • @Hesought well that is a highly personal perception, but i`d say that a lexus indeed is more more just a souped up toyota than a cadillac would be a "chevy". lexus has increasingly lost it in recent years, while american car makers have been in a tough spot over recent years too no doubt, they are now best positioned to take back quite a chunk of the market, now is clearly the time for american car makers to back-seat the japanese once again. this clip right here is one of the many proofs IMO.

  • @Hesought yes but cadillac is over-priced chevrolet

  • @Ghost96ification lexus is an over priced toyota so whats the differents

  • @Ghost96ification GM makes Caddies first and the tech finds its way down to Chevy's... Toytota makes Toyota's first and they chrome it and call it a Lexus... Soccer moms buy a Lexus to compete with Buicks, Acuras and Infiniti's...

    Cadillac has moved on to play with the Germans... We should have see this against a comprable BMW or Merc.

  • @Greendude33 ahahahhahh no american car will ever compete with germans...... you guys cannot even pass japanese cars.....your fucking escalade is a tahoe with chromed out exterior and a shitty plastic interior the only caddillac car worth buying is a cts-v but why when you can get a m3 with same price.......dont try to compete with germans when your having a recall every 3 years.....

  • Comment removed

  • @BlackOpsAFG: You feel better now?.. Because it must feel good to have your head up your ass!

  • @ReSanSax ahh why dont you guys stop recalls ah bitch

  • @BlackOpsAFG: For the same reason every other car manufacture hasn't...ITS A FACT OF LIFE...you fucking moron! 

  • @ReSanSax GM biitch ahahahahhahh faggot go buy a caddillac n break down in 3 years ahahahahahahahhahahabiatch

  • @BlackOpsAFG: Were you having a seizure when you typed this? Or are you that mind-numbingly, stupid? My guess is the latter...

  • @BlackOpsAFG lol Lexus ... a straight china mans car

  • @CARandDRlVER Except it's Japanese, and made in Canada, you retard.

  • @Greendude33 cadillac looks like a toy when u compare it to a Lexus xD

  • @Greendude33 can't compare a cadi with an european car that is just a fact, a regular golf is better finished.

  • @sotuph Get with the times Cadillac is back... Read all the reviews you know by PROFESSIONALS.

    Not to mention Cadillac is on par with or better than all compared German luxury brands in intial quality and customer satisfaction.

  • lexus is much better than cadillac

  • @MrCITRUS2011 yes but lexus is an over priced toyota!

  • I don't think Lexus is an overpriced Toyota. Lexus interior is high quality. Lexus is the Passionate Pursuit of Perfection.

  • @redneck4runneroutlaw You need to be shot in the forehead.

  • @megafast13 GOD FORGIVE YOU!

  • I don't think Lexus is much better than Cadillac. I think Cadillac wins the most Refined Luxury Car Company this year. Cadillac has been building excellent cars. Both automobile companies are leading class.

  • lexus definitely, better quality and much more stylish

  • lexus is good looking more than cadillac

  • SRX beats the RX350 by a long shot.

  • Cadilacc much better !!

  • @imsoreallysexy not!

  • I like the lexus! Tehee. Saw a gray gaddy this morning! Looked rlly nice

  • lexus win

  • I took a good look at both. I would take neither. The current RX has odd styling, an annoying dash with a stupid mouse, and a god awful screen backed up very far. The Cadillac is better with cool styling, a decent interior and a nice touchscreen. I'd take a 2009 RX350. Perfect in every way.

  • @Mrjaguarpaw1 "Cadillac is shit". Umm, have you seen the, 2011 Cadillac CTS V Sedan, Coupe, Wagon, & the XTS Platinum Concept Vehicle? O yeah, the CTS V Sedan is the fastest production car, I think the CTS V Wagon is too, but Im not sure. Correct me if Im wrong. So yeah, I don't think Cadillac's are shit, & their at least better Lexus.

  • win lexus leus is the bestttttttttttttttttttt

  • SRX is better

  • Cadiallac is shit

  • @Mrjaguarpaw1 thats because you can't buy it ! :) poor of you .

  • Plus I still cannot acknowledge this approach but I started dunking four weeks ago! I simply utilized the method that is from "50-inch-vertical(dot)com" and in just exactly 6 weeks, I soar 12 inches higher! Dunking is really thrilling!

    King Of The Crossovers - Cadillac SRX Vs Lexus RX350 motortrend

  • Idk about you guys but every car shop i go to i se atleast 2 or more bmw's or 2 or more mercedes. German cars are unreliable and they can barely if jesus is with you 120,000 miles.

  • How did German cars get into this?

  • I like the Cadillac. Lexus' look too much like Toyotas.

    I bet the Caddy goes for about $20k less than the Lex too.

  • haha douche, just try to compare the hybrid version and then u can talk

  • c'mon this cadillac sucks in every aspect

  • @tubinga2 i could say the same for the lexus, difference is that id be right

  • @jipi0001 lol :)

  • lexus is junk.

  • It's front wheel biased, therefore it sucks. Simple as that.

    Give me a CTS, Escalade or STS or if you are set for a Minivan, get an old SRX with the 4.6 North*

  • @jipi0001 Lol! 'Nicest interior trims.' You're funny! I'm guessing you've never been in a German car. It's ok, I understand. I mean for someone coming from a Sunfire, a Cadillac POS must be considered as luxurious! Btw, I never said Lexus is luxurious. But it sure as hell is far more better in every aspect than a Cadillac. I mean, it honestly just fails. Why you so offended btw? o.O not like you can afford even a Caddy, right?

  • @910127 yea actually i have a friend who had a brand new mercedez, but he traded it for a full equiped dodge ram he finds more luxurious. ive sit in it (mercedez), and apart from leather its not really impressive. and im closer to affording a caddy than any other 'luxury' brand. moreover, cadillac has something nobody else has: value.

  • @jipi0001 Hence, why I said the low standards. Lol.

  • @910127 youre the first person ever to tell me people who love cadillacs have low standards. congrats. and if you compare lexus with european luxury cars you definetly dont know what luxury means. I guess youre one of those who just dont like GM cause its american, even if its the best value.

  • @910127 I agree that the standards are low. Some subjective "fun to drive" BS makes the caddy better? I call BS. the interior sucks and they said the information display was "just as nice." BS again. It didn't look half as nice.

  • oh yeah and cadillacs have the nicest interior trims as you can see in the video. most people refer to cadillac about luxury. its a famous brand, unlike lexus.

  • Cadillac is headed in the right direction with their cars, maybe lacking in just a few minor ways to it's competitors. One wrong move is that it is built in Mexico, I don't care if the quality control is excellent down there but a Cadillac should just be built by someone in North America.
