    As a diehard honda head who drives a civic i was upset for the longest time that Honda never liked doing anything with V8s since i thought a v8 honda pickup truck would be the illest. But their acura side is where all the cake is and i can rest easy knowing i can get my hands on this super beautiful mdx but in a dark dark red very soon

      Didn’t seem like he had it in sport mode or even launched it properly. I have a 2018 Q7 and it seems way faster than this. Also, if you put even just a stage 1 Jackal Motorsports tune in it with no other supporting modifications, it completely wakes up the vehicle. 0-60 in 4.3 seconds.

      Achieving good gas mileage is as much on the owner as it is on the car. So many factors are attributed to your gas mileage. If you really want to squeak out every ounce of mpg for the car u have to do the things necessary to achieve that goal just like anything else in life. Maybe you don’t know what actually helps but here’s a short list of things u can do to improve ur mpg. FYI I have a 23 tlx type s…Improve your oil : stop getting oil changes at the dealership, factory oil is made by Castrol and is a very low level “synthetic oil” liqui moly molygen oil only in my car, swapped out on mine every 2500 miles ( u do what u want)….fuel cleaners (liqui moly, Seafoam, Lucas) often. Upgrade the ground wires on ur car!! This is a must, follow Acura_mechanic on ig he sells upgraded copper ground for all makes but focuses on Acuras. This was a benefit to my car. Swap out ur stock air filter for k&n high flow engine air filter or prl stage 1 intake system. Tires! Make sure ur tire pressure is 5 pounds OVER whatever is on ur door jam. Stiffer tires will improve ur mpg at the expense of feeling the bumps a bit more. Lastly weight, if u have a big family and ur carrying tons of stuff in ur car I mean what do u expect, especially without doing the things I mentioned above. The heavier the load….u get it…it’s not a hybrid, it’s not a normal car, it’s a performance car. Don’t buy performance cars if ur gonna cry about mpg lol

    The Q7 wasn’t really built for racing. The SQ7 on the other hand is a monster and would absolutely destroy that Acura. If you get a stage 1 tune from Jackal Motorsports on the Q7 it completely changes the transmission and ECU and wakes the engine up and makes it a completely different vehicle. 0-60 in 4.3 seconds, and that’s just with a stage 1 with no other modifications just the tune. Then you can go and get a new stainless steel air intake, smaller supercharger pulley, and run a stage 2 and that Q7 will absolutely fly

    • @mariuso.7355

      It’s not a fair comparison. There’s videos with GPS draggy

      This video is super bias.

    • @Wellspicedchaffinch
      @Wellspicedchaffinch 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The T8 never depletes its battery fully; it won't let the driver do that. It has a petrol-powered generator which it runs to supply normal levels of power to the battery. So you get REALLY bad fuel consumption but power to all wheels is always maintained (in Power mode, this is).
      In Pure mode it's rear-wheel (electric) drive only. In Hybrid it'll switch between all wheels as needed, using electric as needed until "depleted" and then will just use fuel.
      Only Power mode activates the generator when the battery indicates depleted to the driver; it always provides the 400+ horse power and just drinks fuel to achieve it.

    That Volvo also needs to be in power -driving mode so it doesn't try to guess if you really want to go or not when you stomp the pedal. Volvo has also lost its supercharger - T8 recharge is not twin charged, it has only turbocharger in its engine and more power on the hybrid. Does Volvos hybrid system still cut off somewhere after 130kph/80mph? The older twin charged T8 pulls happily well beyond 200kph/125mph.

      @@jec20721 NSX is obviously out of reach to many people, so buying NSX is definitely not try to save gas for those can actually afford, but MDX is still affordable for many people out there, at least a lot more affordable than NSX, Lexus TX does have hybrid max powertrain that’s actually get you 27 MPG compared to 17 MPG on MDX Type S, that’s 10 more MPG saving. TX even have plug in hybrid as well, assuming it’s under 80K which will get you federal tax credit. If you just drive short distance each day, you can just drive it in EV mode all the time. Regular MDX advance is only 65K, just add a regular hybrid for 2K more, and I will buy it for 67K, so it still cost less than Type S. I don’t a huge power increase on the hybrid. I’m glad Acura actually listened to people’s complaints about the touch pad, that’s why we are getting touch screen for the 2025 MDX, but still missing a hybrid.
