The 2010 Cadillac STS is largely unchanged, though a high-performance model is no longer offered. STS is available in V6 and V8 models. The high-performance STS-V has been discontinued. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available.

V6 models have a 302-horsepower 3.6-liter engine. V8 models use a 320-horsepower 4.6-liter V8. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, front-side airbags, and curtain-side airbags.

A lane-departure and blind-spot alert system are offered, as is an active-steering system designed to turn the front wheels into a skid when the rears lose traction. Also available are heated and ventilated front seats, a navigation system with voice recognition, and a wireless cell-phone link. The Platinum Edition Package has specific interior and exterior trim.

This 2010 SRX is based on GM’s Theta Premium platform — an enhanced version of the regular Theta architecture, which forms the basis for the 2010 Chevrolet Equinox and 2010 GMC Terrain.

The new SRX will be offered with a choice of either front-wheel-drive or AWD. “The 2010 SRX will deliver excellent, balanced driving dynamics in all types of weather,” said Bob Reuter, global vehicle chief engineer.

There are two engine choices for the SRX; a 3.0-liter V-6 that uses direct injection to produce 260 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque, or a 2.8-liter, turbo-charged V-6 that produces 300 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. Both engines use a six-speed automatic transmission. Buyers have a choice of front- or electronic all-wheel drive. The awd system can split torque front and rear, and also between the rear wheels thanks to an electronic limited slip.

The 2010 Cadillac CTS lineup gains a wagon body style and a new base engine. CTS sedan and Sport Wagon come as the 3.0 model, with a new 270-hp 3.0-liter V6 engine. This replaces a 263-hp 3.6-liter V6. Both body styles also come as the 3.6, with a 304-hp 3.6-liter V6. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on 3.0 sedans and is offered as a credit option on 3.6 sedans. A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard on all wagons and 3.6 sedans; it’s optional on the 3.0 sedan. Rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive is available. The high-performance CTS-V is a rear-drive sedan powered by a supercharged version of the Chevrolet Corvette’s 6.2-liter V8 engine. It produces 556 hp and is mated to either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. The CTS-V comes standard with GM’s Magnetic Ride Control suspension, which automatically adjusts firmness within two driver-selectable modes.

GM also is offering its “Performance Traction Management” system on the CTS-V. This system is similar to GM’s Stabilitrak antiskid system, but it is set to aid performance in spirited driving. The V also gets an upgraded interior that includes available Recaro-brand seats with 14-way adjustment and a suede-like microfiber wrap for the shift lever and steering wheel. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Available features include steering-linked headlamps and keyless entry and ignition. A navigation system is standard on the CTS-V, optional otherwise.
