Toyota Rav4

Performance for an SUV is exemplary even with a 4 cyl turbo. Limited body roll for an SUV. Braking system is maddening, hoping we can find an override method. Control system has a learning curve of 4 weeks; but afterwards is decent. With performance driving; any system but heads up is distractive. I give the vehicle 3.7 stars. Negatives the braking and too many safety controls; do like the backup camera and blind spot monitors.

Noisiest ride ever!

Just leased the 2019 RDX + Tech in February; White with beautiful brown interior. LIKE: ride, safety features, interior is outstanding, stylish exterior, Infotainment center. Took a few days to learn Infotainment features but I love it. DISLIKES: Road noise and vibration like sounds is unbearable. Don't know why it happens. Luckily doesn't happen on all road surfaces. I've read about "piped in engine noise" that many are complaining about. Is that the culprit? Or are Continental 19" Tires part of the problem? Will certainly ask dealer when I go in for my plates. Glad I'm leasing. They are more apt to fix issues since they have to sell it later.

Never been more satisfied with a car purchase

Acura has hit a home run with the 2019 RDX. It stylish, fun to drive, high tech and high quality. I test drove an RDX back in the day and it was an uncomfortable CRV. I have the RDX Advance, which adjusts the ride and it is more smooth and quieter than the other RDX models. I love the aggressive styling, performance, heads up display and ELS 3D stereo system. The only issue I have is the infotainment system, using CarPlay is a little glitchy, but they send over the air updates on a regular basis so it getting better over time. I am a tech guy and have no problem with cutting edge tech and RDX has more tech than most. Kudos to Acura!

I love all about my car. Color, seats, music system is sick. Wow super powerful engine and very smooth on the free way. Comfy seats and cool roof.

Outstanding vehicle. Very impressive in all aspect

Drivetrain is an absolute pleasure to behold. Smooth, precise, responsive and powerful. Interior is sporty and luxurious. All of your senses (seeing, hearing, touching/feeling and just plain comfort) will be rewarded. Sound system will expose you to dimensions of your favorite songs you never experienced before. A MUST add to your auto search.

Still New But Loving It!

The interior really sold us. It is very comfortable. We anticipate enjoying traveling long distances in our new car. The outside styling is also excellent.

Technological improvement s are impressive.

The comfort, technological advances, and performance all combine to make this car an excellent choice. While I have enjoyed an Acura RDX in the past this model update far exceeds what I anticipated.

It has it all

I love my 2029 RDX! It has it all from apple car play to a heated steering wheel to both ventilation and heating in the seats. I am a person that likes gadgets and this SUV has it all.

love my new car!

This vehicle meets most of my needs, although I'm having a little trouble learning and the manual is printed so small its very difficult to read and understand.
