Love this car!

I had leased a Mazda CX-5 and realized after the first 2 years..it was a bit too small! I test drove the Acura MDX and leased that same day. Plenty of leg room, handles extremely well and quiet as can be!

Exciting Drive

This car has exceeded all prior Acura cars which I owned, including an MDX and an RL model. The technology package offers excellent connectivity tools, as well.

Terrible voice recognition

Overall a very good and reliable vehicle throughout.. EXCEPT this has to be the most inept terrible working voice recognition system ever. my cellphone at far less cost has much better VR.. Honda/Acura should get rid of their internal developers and buy or license the voice recognition from google or anyone else... Navigation works fine but Voice recognition does not recognize anything and the revised version with more menus is worse than the original one I had in my 2015 MDX. ask for navigation and it gives you the phone!!!

Quality vehicle from Acura

The Acura SH-AWD MDX is a fantastic full size SUV. Roomy interior, speedy computer system and a smooth, comfortable ride. The trunk space and optional 3rd row seating are terrific as well as easy to get to. Further, the car is beautiful in white with the chrome accents. Now that Apple CarPlay is in the vehicles, they are even more enjoyable to be in. Love the brand and quality of product for the money. Tremendous value with Acura.

Great Car!

Overall, I am super excited about my MDX. This is my third MDX and it is by far my favorite one yet. I had to wait a few months extra to get the color I wanted, but it was definitely worth the wait!

MDX?s Are Awesome

We have bought and owned 2 fully loaded Acura MDX?s and loved both of them. Our first one was a 2004 and our first changeover from Jeep Grand Cherokees of which we had 3. We loved that MDX and got another new one in 2008 which we are still driving with 125,000 miles. We drove our friends new one and realize it is getting close to the time to buy another new one which we plan to do in the not too distant future. They are awesome vehicles.

review of accura mdx

Most enjoyable and comfortable vehicle we drove. The technology package is awesome looking forward to driving it a lot. Drive numerous other vehicles of different makes. Accura mdx hands down the best.

Best money per value car I have ever owned

I absolutely love the quality and value of this car. I compared it to more expensive and similarly priced SUVs and this is by far the best value you can find. The technology in this car is better than some higher end lower priced cars and a clot cheaper than similar higher priced cars.

Suv room, with great car handling

We?ve owned the mdx for about 2 months. Fantastic vehicle, with great capabilities. I have 3 kids, and it?s a tad tight, but love the car! Suburban next!
