Acura unveiled another piece of the puzzle in the renewal of the model palette in New York . The MDX SUV follows the concept that was shown in Detroit and is supposed to be among the best cars in its category.
The design is typical of Acura . Even the MDX did not avoid the large and dominant radiator grille in conjunction with the LED diodes in the front lights. However, as for example with the RLX sedan , the rear part, which looks more like the class average, cannot follow up on the interesting front part.
The interior is also not surprising in the context of other models of the brand. The trio of displays informs about everything important and unimportant that might interest you while driving. Compared to its predecessor, the MDX is 70 mm longer , so it's no wonder that seven passengers can fit inside, sitting in three rows. The trunk will then offer more volume than its predecessor and will also benefit from the additional space under the floor.
In the engine compartment, there will be a new six-cylinder with direct injection of 3.5 liters with a power of 294 hp and a torque of 362 Nm. Among the transmissions, the only option is a six-speed automatic with a sports mode and the option of sequential shifting. On the other hand, you can choose from front or all-wheel drive. Interestingly, despite the increase in dimensions, Acura managed to reduce the intergenerational weight by 124.7 kg.
There will be four trim levels on offer for the US market. It is not expected to be imported into Europe, despite the fact that the chassis was adjusted on the famous Nürburgring .
