Replacing those two engines is a single 3.6-liter V-6. “This is the engine the SRX should have had all along,” said an engineer who didn’t wish to be named. The engine is similar to the 3.6-liter V-6 found in the CTS, but it’s adapted and tweaked for the SRX’s transverse arrangement. A few of the changes—like the clever exhaust manifolds integrated into the heads, the plastic intake manifold, and lighter connecting rods—help shave 20 pounds off the 3.6-liter V-6. Lightening the connecting rods allows the engine to rev a bit higher, and the higher revs lead to 308 hp at 6800 rpm. Other changes, like additional sound deadening in the firewall and a clever rubber-isolated high-pressure fuel line, keep engine noises out of the cabin. Putting rubber between the fuel line and engine nearly eliminates the injector ticking sound we’ve come to expect from direct-injection engines at idle.

And versions of this new iteration are also in the 12 CTS, Impala, Lacrosse, 13 ATS, not sure if the Traverse and it's kin have it yet though.

I read an article in USA today the other day about the SRX and I thought it was interesting. The thing I was looking at is how this new technology has been perceived in different reviews. The fact that it has received positive reviews is relivent if you have the LFX engine, which I do.
