Joining the updates to the 2014 ATS are those for the 2014 SRX, delivering new colors, a new convenience feature, and a plethora of new or revised LPO items.
To start, the SRX loses three exterior colors (Gray Flannel Metallic, Evolution Green Metallic, and Xenon Blue Metallic) along with one interior color (Shale with Ebony accents); these hues are replaced by three corresponding exterior colors (Graphite Metallic, Terra Mocha Metallic, Sapphire Blue Metallic) and one interior combination (Caramel with Ebony accents), which features an Ebony headliner. In addition, the 2014 SRX has new IntelliBeam headlamps as part of the Driver Awareness Package that automatically deploys high-beam headlamps when needed and instantly turns them down when oncoming traffic is detected. Meanwhile, the 3.6L V6 engine (LFX) is no longer E85 capable.
Rounding out the changes are a significant amount of LPO-level accessories, with the most noticeable being three new wheels, a sport accessory edition, a sport grille, a touring grille, and two-tone side bents.
Here are the official RPO-level changes:

i heard a rumor about better gas mileage on the 2014 srx & what is E85. THANKS
I don’t know if the SRX is going to have better Gas Milage or not. I had a 2010 Red SRX w/ all the features and I only got 16 mpg in the city and at the most 18-19 mpg. Now E85 is a cleaner burning Reg. Gas. made with more corn (ethanoyl). You will see that at gas stations for E85 the gas pump handles are yellow. And if your car runs on E85 the gas cap will be yellow too.
If you run E85, your mileage will be horrible. Much worse than running normal unleaded. Hoping that somehow by removing the ability to run E85 will result in an improvement in overall mileage, but not sure they are related.
Here’s what Cadillac has put out for the 2014 SRX:

MPG on page 6
I was not pleased with the noise of the LFX engine on the 2013 LFX engine. What changes were made to the engine and/or components which resulted in the engine no longer being able to run on E85 fuel? And is there an advantage to the consumer?
Will the 2014 model feature an updated CUE?
Thanks.
Does Cadillac have any plans to build an Enclave version for their product line?
We have an SRX- fun to drive but it’s really a CTS in disguise -interior is too tight and absolutely no back seat legroom).
An Enclave version would be a huge seller as I know a number of Cadillac drivers that have move to Enclave just for the reason that Escalade way too big and SRX way too small. Seems logical but then again….
2013 SRX:
1. garage door buttons awkwardly placed; my hand does not bend to their positioning
2. GPS sucks; my portable Garmin is better than caddy and the Garmin has more street detail in a smaller screen
3. voice directions for GPS constantly not understood/accepted by GPS system; I finally brought back my portable Garmin b/c I could not get SRX to “listen” to my words
