Few automakers venture into the luxury hybrid SUV market, yet the 2017 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid shines in its class. Not only is it an excellent vehicle for urban professionals, but families will find that its offerings are ideal for their needs. With tons of entertainment and convenience options, a sizeable cabin, and an efficient hybrid powertrain, the Acura MDX Sport Hybrid is sure to please parents and kids alike.
Go Further on a Tank of Gas Without Sacrificing Power
Your kids may not have learned the value of a dollar, but you certainly have. Because of this, you’ll appreciate how much further you can go on a single tank of gas in the 2017 MDX Sport Hybrid. The best part is that you don’t have to sacrifice power to do it.
Behind a 3.0-liter V6 engine that pairs with three electric motors and a 1.3-kWh lithium-ion battery pack, the MDX delivers 321 horsepower and up to 289 pound-feet of torque. This propels the MDX from zero to 60 in just 5.8 seconds while delivering a top speed of 110 mph.
Even with this power, you don’t have to worry about the powertrain gobbling down gas. You’ll still get an estimated 27 mpg on the highway, 26 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg combined. When coupled with a 19.4-gallon gas tank, you can go up to 523 miles, which is excellent for a summer vacation or a road trip to grandma’s house.
Rule the Carpool
If you have several kids or you’ve just signed up for a local carpool, you need room to pack all the children in the car for your daily commute. The MDX Sport Hybrid answers the call with available seating for six or seven passengers depending on the configuration. If it’s science fair day or you need to bring sporting equipment, the rear still has 14.9 cubic feet of space. When that’s not enough room, fold down the seats to reveal a total cabin space of 90.9 cubic feet.
Reap the Benefits of AcuraWatch
When it comes to protecting your family, you can’t spare any expense, and that’s what makes the MDX Sport Hybrid so amazing. Each trim of the SUV receives the AcuraWatch system, which is a comprehensive suite of driver-assist safety features. Armed with these amenities, you can avoid accidents before they happen, as well as keep yourself free from distractions.
Enjoy the Entertainment
Kids can’t always behave themselves on long trips, especially if they’re close in age. Fortunately, the MDX Sport Hybrid solves this situation with the available entertainment package. With the push of a button, your bundles of joy can enjoy two programs simultaneously on the massive 16.2-inch display screen. If you’ve had enough extraneous noise, you can also opt for the available headphones, giving you the peace and quiet you want and need.
With so many family-centric amenities, excellent styling, and loads of other benefits, the 2017 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid is an SUV that both parents and kids will love. If you’re serious about taking the next step to ownership, schedule a test drive with us today.
