For nearly two decades, the Acura MDX has served as the luxury brand's flagship SUV. From humble beginnings as Acura's adaptation of the Honda Pilot, the MDX has evolved into a world-class three-row utility vehicle with a comfortable ride, excellent handling characteristics, and a wealth of advanced safety features.
The current MDX proves that you don't need to take out a second mortgage to get a luxury SUV that can compete with the segment's best. The cabin is a pleasant place to be, boasting supportive seats, fantastic noise isolation, and wide window openings that allow light to brighten the interior. The 3.5-liter V6 underhood is effortlessly powerful and smooth, and estimated fuel economy is similarly impressive. There's even a hybrid version available with increased efficiency and performance. The previous-generation MDX is also family-friendly and introduced the handling-and-comfort emphasis that the current MDX enjoys. At the time, the first-generation MDX was unusual in its unibody construction when most SUVs were still body-on-frame. It is more closely allied with its Pilot sibling than subsequent MDXs.
