With its angular exterior, the 2012 Cadillac SRX looks fast, and it backs up those looks with a new-for-2012 308-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 that will have Mom and Dad arguing over who gets to drive the kids to school. However, all those angles really hamper the SRX’s rear visibility, making the optional backup camera a must-have for this five-seat crossover.
For the Car Seat Check, we use a Graco SnugRide 30 rear-facing infant-safety seat, a Britax Roundabout convertible child-safety seat and Graco high-back TurboBooster seat.
