- The Acura MDX is a three-row luxury SUV that stands out from the pack with its standard technology. Beneath the angular body styling, the MDX has a sporty nature, with a powerful V6 engine and agile handling. Many driver safety aids come standard. A 2022 redesign gave the MDX more space for passengers and cargo. The cabin is filled with top-shelf features, like the ability to wirelessly charge a phone while using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.

Dave, just got mine.... 2022 MDX Advance in Fathom Blue Pearl with Graystone leather interior. I can't say enough about it!!! Although styling is Subjective, the redesign of the MDX is Spectacular !! , More Muscular, enhanced Drive platform /suspension , new 10Speed AT , new brakes, very comfortable seating , a nighttime Light Show, great digital instruments, fantastic 16 speaker ELS Sound system (in my Advance)..... on and on. I'm 70 years old in October, and getting this SUV 2 weeks ago, still feel like a 12 year old at XMAS who just got the Best Bicycle made. I haven't been this excited about my new car( and I have had many of them), since getting a 2007 Infiniti G35 which was the Best car I ever had at that time. I reserve the word LOVE for people not Things... However, I REALLY LIKE this car !!! Very pleased with my purchase (actually a early lease termination of my 2019 MDX which had "equity" of $3K plus the $1K Loyalty $$$ from Acura "pushed me" in this direction). It is just about Head Over Heels a very good 2019 MDX in every way except for the Touch Pad Interface... I am getting used to it, but Acura should include BOTH Touch Screen and a Touch Pad.
Love watching your videos. Keep up the fantastic work!
Wow, I resubscribed...that was an awesome review. Dave is back with a punch.
I am a Honda lover and I now own a 2022 MDX. It has perfect size, technology features, robust engine and superb handling, not to mention the comfort. Thanks for the review
Has it been reliable after a year?
Great video hot stud. Acura MDX above all you mentioned. I can't wait to trade in my 2020 Aspec MDX with 2022 Aspec MDX, waiting to see the Stype coming this summer
The touch pad is not that big of a learning curve and once you get use to it the pad works really well.
im glad u said that lol. its just like everything else that your new to. I played with it in the RDX, its not bad as people making it seem. A optional touchscreen would be nice tho
@@Slim1986 thank you so much, I don’t mind the touch pad at all
Just test drove an Advance . Really Nice. The touch Pad is a PIA BUT, I think with some more time , I could get used to it. And another reviewer said, and the top notch salesman at the dealership emphasized, yiou can control everything from the Steering Wheel too !!! A complete winner would be a Dual System : Touch pad and a Touch screen !!
The true touch pad has infact grown on me over the last month. It's no different than the touch screen, but better since it's more accessible
Thanks! I did s test drive and didn't find it terrible, but clearly recoginized I need a bit more time to get used to it.
Great review 👍🏼
I think I found my next car. Thanks!
People that appreciate this car will prefer it over all the competitors. It ticks all the boxes
Great review
Just beautiful 🤩🙏🏿
This guy is very good presenter
They need to update the side mirrors shape more and place them on the doors for better look and make rear spoiler longer and add second spoiler on trunk this would be so cool
If I'm looking at MDX, I'm definitely not looking at Kia/Hyundai
why?
I ordered exactly like this one and just arrived :)
What the full gauges
Do you mind me How do you like it now 6 months later? l am supposed to get mine in 2 weeks and l am getting cold feet from the mixed reviews on electrical problems
We need to come up with a name for Alexa like the O-Blank Handles
My family has been a Honda family since 1984. My favorite Honda of all-time was my Dad's 1995 Acura Legend V6 MT. I bought it from him in 2005 and drove it for another 10 years. Sadly it eventually died with 278,996 miles on the odometer. I've owned four Honda's with my current driveway housing a 2008 Honda Odyssey EXL, a 2017 Honda Accord Touring V6, and now a 2023 Acura MDX /Tech.
You just cannot beat Honda products and Acura is just that much better.

DRIVER... How did like the Espresso interior with Liquid Carbon Platinum Exterior? It look like too many interior colors are going on...
Waiting on the Type-S before I decide which one I'm buying.
Me too!
Me Too. I owna 2019 MDX Advance. This is far and away an major upgrade. Loving what Acura Did here. Maybe Acura offers a nice Trade up program on the leases ro get them on the road. Although, from another site - initial orders are going through the Roof. I would do this model , not the S type in a Nano second had they Pumped the HP and torque on the base engine. The HP is actually good, but could use more torque. The S type take it to another level. Something in between would be the Absolute Clincher for me.
@@Chiroman527, Acura does have a program for current Acura owners(not sure how much of a discount). I own a Mercedes and they are offering a 1K discount currently for Benz owners and the same for several other brands also.
How much more is that gonna be? 20 Gs??!
@@artieartya, waiting to hear the price too.
👍🏻 Acura
Does it really have active dampers as an option? Thought they dropped it this year. Guess not. Good to know. Thanks
Yes it has active dampers may be only on higher trims though
Reminds me so much my Mazda CX 9
I went to see the A-spec yesterday. I had the an RDX and I liked it but wanted more for the price point at the time. There is some specs on the MDX that does not compare to the others in the class...good and bad. I did not test drive the vehicle the visit was purely vision and walkthrough features. At the luxury and price point I expected the power fold-down of the third row, the piano black is annoying, it is kind of cramped on the second two seating and I stand at 5ft 9in. Although it is larger than my RDX I had. Aesthetically it is a beautiful car, the price is not too crazy compared to other quoted luxury vehicles at a much higher price. Acura engineer why must you press to talk instead of being able to say "hey google" button free.
A bit understated review Dave. Time to mix it up a bit for 2021.
How so?
Does this still use the old dated Engine with timing belt engine like the Honda Pilot ?
Yes cause they're still using basically the same engine. They don't want to invest in a different V6 or engine that's why.
Nothing means nothing can beat my 2018 honda crv. Won’t give it for a bmw
Seats are poor quality and I have the top trim Advance 22 MDX. Leather is worn like it's been used for 5 years after 2 weeks of intended use. The seats are not supportive and mushy. The ride is too rough with a very sensitive bouncy suspension. Other than that it's an okay ride. I'd stick with Toyota Lexus tho until they work out the kinks. My 15 Highlander was a more comfy and better ride but not as modern with all the tech features. Gas mileage also sucks. I'm getting about 17/18 mpg in mixed driving. Not a bad hiwhway cruiser but damn Acura, fix the suspension...it's way to rough and bouncy on city roads!
What’s highest trim? Aspec or advanced?
Advanced
Now it's the type s
Palisade Calligraphy or mdx ? Your take
The
Alex Massengale ??
Andres Perez like your choice ! Me too the same, I got Calligraphy in White. Super nice.
Which color is that one? liquid carbon?
OFFROAD review please!
Damn I’m the only one
Thank goodness they put a real motor in it and not some hybrid garbage. I will consider this vehicle because there’s no electrified garbage in it
And when the ZDX model will be resurrected
2 L Turbo ? V6 Turbo ? Hybrid ? PHEV ?
Seems like Acura is making smaller and smaller MDX’s which is fine but they need a large SUV in the lineup.
This vehicle is larger in almost every way than the previous MDX?
this car is wider and longer than previous gen
Literally gotten bigger every generation.
Don't like the not real shifter and touch pad
Is it just me or does it really look like a souped version of Mazda CX9?
I drove both last week. The looks are very similar. The packaging is much better in the MDX and more family friendly in the MDX. Exterior dimensions are almost identical but the Acura has more cargo space and better room in all three rows. Things like that reversible cargo floor and removable seat are gold for families. I thought it drove a little better than the Mazda but the Mazda is a much better value with great controls that also drives very well. The Acura does have a more comfortable front seat (for me) as I found some hard plastic that my leg naturally leaned against on the door of the CX9.
Low power for the weight! Base model doesn’t bring nav.
That his son hehe
X5 and gv 80 eat it for breakfest

Like a laptop computer
No longer looks like a minivan
This is good, but I think the GV80 has it beat, maybe the Type-S will be closer.
Maybe u think it has some more luxurious touches however MDX is more practical, spacious, known name and dealerships, ACE body structure, new airbag innovation, SHAWD, be nice for a sport hybrid, double wishbones , best audio etc
@@rahimi4762 who the heck wants a Korean car 🤣🤣🤣
Sounds like you never drove an Acura before
@@rahimi4762 I've had a 2006 MDX from new until 2015 and a 2016 MDX until now and I like the GV90 better. Sure this Acura has the GV90 beat in some areas but the GV90 has more practical and usable features
It really depends on what you are looking for. I've looked at both. As a family car the MDX wins hands down. Things like the removable middle seat and the extra cargo space behind the third row and the reversible floor make a huge difference. For non-family duty the GV80 might be the best one.
Profile looks like the cx7
I don’t mind the touch pad. Took a couple trips playing with it but doesn’t take long to learn. I am frustrated with Acura however with some of the options they left off the technology package making you drop ~7k to get while competitors include them for less. Not to mention no years of map updates free with purchase. Lastly, can we stop pretending that all these “safety” features are something to drool about when all cars in this class include them and Acura’s flavor is annoying? My 2022 loves slamming on the breaks when the car in front of me moves to an off ramp and slows down. Annoying and dangerous!
I got the 2019 RDX and touch is so much better than reach over trying to touch a screen while flying down road. I personally feel touch screens are more dangerous in general. Also CarPlay voice commands are flawless rendering touch controls pointless most the time it’s just a command away.
@@artieartya Totally agree, the touch pad is much smoother than a touch screen far away. I also hate finger prints on the screen, so this solved that issue!
Steep learning curve? 5 minutes is steep?
There is a reason everyone has gone to touchscreens they are much quicker much easier to use and safer because you aren’t fumbling around with these mouse pads.
Look like a Mazda cx9
It's even more sleek
Nice calves bro..

No hybrid?! Yeah, Honda is digging a hole for themselves. Instead of electrifying their vehicles, like most car companies are doing, they are actually not producing electric vehicles like their competitors. Why not a plug-in hybrid and all-electric MDX?!? Toyota's RAV4 Prime and Audi's e-trons are a great example of the direction Honda should be taking. Yeah this is the best looking MDX to date, but the engine (as extremely reliable as it may be) is a gas-guzzling dinosaur. This is 2021. Even though we're in the middle of a global pandemic, we can't forget that there's a huge global climate CRISIS going on that we DESPERATELY need to address. And diminishing the amount of electric vehicles in your fleet is NOT the way to go!! Huge thumbs down HONDA!! If Honda doesn't get their act together (and soon) they too will go the way of the dinosaurs. And it will be their own fault. Deservedly so.
Yes, the decision to eliminate the hybrid is puzzling. Honda and Acura have been very late to the hybrid and EV party. I have owned 15 Honda/Acura vehicles, but I am considering other makes that offer more hybrids,
It takes time, they will get there. Honda doesn't want to put out junk. Trust me, I work at a domestic car factory.
there is no climate crisis stupid!
@@billthestinker I take it you didn't get your booster.
@@elmhurst86 of course I did my part and got the boost because the man made China virus does not occur naturally in nature
Its a cx9¡!!!!
Are you blind?
No i not blind dont understand the comment
They look very similar and have almost the same exterior dimensions. The MDX has much better interior packaging though interior quality is basically a wash on top trims and the CX9 is a much better value.
😯Looks cheap reminds me of a rental car instead of luxury 🤔 I don't like anything that honda makes. There🤦♀️ cars and trucks look so basic
