The new MDX has a 3.5-liter V6 engine that delivers 290 horsepower and 267 lb-ft of torque. A front-wheel driveline is standard for this model, which provides a gas mileage of 19 MPG in the city, 26 MPG on the freeway, and 22 MPG combined. If you opt for the Super Handling AWD drivetrain, a system designed to optimize dry-road traction, it offers a highway mileage of 25 MPG.

Exterior

This SUV’s luxurious features start with a panoramic tilt-and-slide moonroof, which offers an open-air riding experience, ample natural light, and a power-sliding sunshade for on-demand coverage. The base MDX has a power lift tailgate, which is upgraded to a hands-free liftgate that automatically closes when you walk away from the vehicle. Automatic LED headlights and heated, reverse tilt-down side mirrors are included.

Interior

Standard sports seats underscore the sporty styling of this performance SUV. The 12-way power-adjustable front seats have power lumbar support, heated cushions, and three-position memory so multiple drivers can trade off with ease. The MDX has a removable second-row center seat that can drop the maximum seating capacity from seven to six and provide easy access to the 50/50 split-folding third-row seats.

This model has a sophisticated three-zone automatic climate control system with a built-in air filter and humidity control system to ensure the cabin climate is comfortable for front and rear riders. The keyless access system comes with Acura Personalized Settings for a tailored driving experience. Stylish cabin features include a frameless auto-dimming rearview mirror, ambient LED cabin lighting, and a leather-wrapped multi-functional steering wheel.

Technology

The 11-speaker audio system is matched with a 12.3-inch central display. Features like speed-sensitive volume, natural language voice recognition, Alexa Built-In, and Google Built-In with three years of unlimited data are standard. A 12.3-inch Precision Cockpit is part of the base equipment package, giving drivers the convenience of a fully configurable digital cluster. An in-car microphone via CabinTalk is also standard.

Safety technology like the Collision Mitigation Braking System is essential to the MDX makeup. This collision prevention system identifies potential crashes and reduces the severity of an accident with another vehicle or a pedestrian. Adaptive cruise control, road departure mitigation, and lane departure warning are also standard. A multi-view rearview camera is helpful for parking and exiting driveways.
