Every new Acura are great. I love my 2015 RDX . Of course i love that MDX. i own a 2008 MDX with 340,000 miles original engine and transmission.sweet cars keep it up acura.we love you.
While it remembers your settings, you still have to put it back into individual mode after you turn the ignition off. That is one thing that mini auto makers need to fix including Acura.
You have to have the app on your phone, then when you pair your phone it will be an icon on the display. You have to set up your stations in your “library” on the app first.
I prefer the '22-'24 front grill. Thi's '25's color-keyed fender wheel trims, massage seats and touch screen are a good upgrade and I wish they had this from previous iteration.
I have a 2024 Advance and I think the Bridgestone “truck” tires are responsible for most of the cabin noise. They tried a number of different tires over the years, but none of them compare to the Michelin’s that used to be standard.
also have a 24 MDX advance and not really happy with the road noise nor the ride quality. Kind of pathetic that a $60 k car doesn't have remote start or heated steering wheel. Also, shouldn't have to spend $1k for new tires on a brand new car just to get the ride quality it should have from the factory. Not even sure that would fix the issues.
I have a '22 MDX advance and I agree its a bit "noiser" than my '16 MDX tech. The latters tire is michelin brand which is quitere but the downside is treadwear is higher. But for me, its tolerable.
Absolutely horrendous miss by Acura taking XM capabilities out of their flagship vehicle. I get it: people are streaming everything. HOWEVER, there are many places that are remote with poor service, and the beauty of Satellite Radio has always been its reliability to have signal anyway. The same can be said with the network-driven Google maps. Built-in NAV is one the primary reasons to get the Tech Package (at least it was in the past). And as someone who just spent a couple days in the White Mountains, where cell service was extremely spotty, the built-in GPS on my RDX never failed me... but the network-based Google Maps and Waze via CarPlay certainly did. Maybe we should be re-thinking the removal of basic premium amenities that have been proven staples for years, rather than offering unreliable substitutes that literally limit the customer while upping the price tag.
I can attest to this. Have the '25 advance and we live in CO AND like to road trip. We have these things around us called mountains and when driving it in the mts, we lose cell service (streaming). We are coming from an '11 (yes, a 2011...LOL) and really do miss XM in this one. I looked into getting one added but will need to add a new antenna too as the tech in the '25 roof fin does not have the tech to receive sat radio. Really am bummed that this decision was made. It was not a make or break for this car but really hate that it's gone. The other miss with the ent system is that it does not pair to the key fob. There are car systems that will pair with the fob but the ent profiles will not. So my wife is on fob 1 and I'm on fob 2...we have to remember to switch the ent profile when we get in. Again, just a gripe that they did not pair this with the fob. So this means radio stations, which phone pairs with CarPlay, etc...
@@1OCDDAD everyone’s use case is different, as you can see. We have three other vehicles that have it and we use it in all three out here. Building and downloading playlists to Apple Music gets to be a pain after a while. Not to mention the fact that live news and sporting events cannot really be downloaded and listened to, so there is that too. If you don’t want it, great, don’t pay for it when the trial is up. But for those that do, wish the option was still there.

Could you please consider doing decibel testing? This method of letting people listen to your video to see if it's quieter than another car is not effective. Thanks.
I own 3 Acuras, and they have been great vehicles. I test drove one of these, no different than my 2020 Tech. Yes, some things have improved, but the interior feels cheap. Shiny black plastic that scratches even with a microfiber cloth and a cheap hvac display. Both of these feel like they’re from leftover 2017 Accords, and I know because I used to have one. One last thing, what’s with the Bridgestone tires? For $68K +, I would expect Michelins or at least some Continentals…..but at least that wonky touchpad is gone!
Amazing what a best selling vehicle this was with that silly track pad! So much better. The exterior and back end is a bit meh to me. Would like to see A C U R A spelled out on the back like many do now. 😂
When can we see the 2025 RDX ? So far we’ve only seen designer concepts and not the real deal. If the next RDX has the same enhancements as the new MDX it will be a huge success.
Acura should get rid of the chrome door trims, and add less chrome. Also we dont need massage feature on chair, lower the price, it's way to expensive for this size. The Mazda cx70 is way lower and has great features and no chrome. 😮😮😮

Will it remember Individual Mode or does it need to choose it every time you start the car?
While it remembers your settings, you still have to put it back into individual mode after you turn the ignition off. That is one thing that mini auto makers need to fix including Acura.
Very good review. The only other nice to have change would be for Acura to provide a traditional shifter instead of the odd push button design.
I have a 2024 MDX Advance, and a 2016 TLX Tech. I love the push button shifters.
Idk about that, my parents have the 2023 MDX Advance, we got used to the push button shifter VERY QUICKLY
SiriusXM subscription not available now?

@@bobdailey9735 correct. We purchased a ‘25 and miss it. We did actually use XM and all of other vehicles have it and we use it.

Is the trackpad removed for all trims in the 2025 MDX or just the advance?
The track pad is gone on all trim levels on the MDX for 2025.
Needs upper air vents for middle and third rows

Both CDs and XM’s are not needed. I have had them in all my cards but never used them for over 10 years.

I never used the XM in my MDX following the 6 month free trial period and felt it was a waste of money
Thank you for sharing Tom
You're welcome, Dan! Thank you for taking the time to watch.

I know right? Should have the Michelin as OEMs same as the previous gens. Bridgestone must have given Acura a really good deal.

Same advance wheel as 22-24, just different paint.

This is the only color that looks good on the new front facia.
i own one 2024 AWD love it but to slow for me…heavy car and old school engine..
i loved the track pad
Nissan will save them
