You won’t be disappointed in the Acura RDX

This car is a very smooth ride, comfortably sized for me (a 5’1” 118 pound female), and very stylish too. I traded in a 2008 Mercedes sedan for this car and couldn’t be more happy. It has all the pep and zip I was used to with more space and new technology.

2020 RDX Aspec. Not sure what's going on with it🤔

Im a MDX person already own two. Decided to switch 4 month ago to the new 2020 Aspec. Few concerns When I shut the engine the radio continues to play even after I open & close the driver's door. I had to start the process again. Start up shut dwn. Also it safety option is alarming/ amazing 🤷🏿‍♀️. it stops in the middle of the road because I made an improper lane change 🤣. Never doing that again ever. I tried reversing without my seatbelts it just stops. 😳 I'm hoping it's not a malfunction. I'm thinking this must be an extremely safe car My 2017 MDX never did that! Overall it's a keeper. My daughter love her 2019 ILS Aspec that she park her older model TSX for😊 She just wish the interior was like my RDX.

Great car as long as you don't use infotainment

This is an exceptional car which looks and drives like a dream. You will love it as long as you don't use any of the following... GPS AM/FM SiriusXM Music on USB Apple CarPlay/Android Auto Connected Phone The infotainment is a complete mess with daily glitches and freezes. These problems are widely reported and Acura doesn't seem to be able to fix them.

Great body style.

Love all the features. Styling is sporty and fun. Driving the RDX is effortless. All the interior controls are easy to use and easy to reach.

Great car. New owner.

Comfy and quiet ride. Brand new to us; we have only 500 miles on it so far. Nice color exterior; great brown interior. Very pleased.

First time leasing an acura

It’s nice it has a little rattle in the drivers side door that I’m hoping can be eradicated n didn’t come with a heated steering wheel

New to Acura, but love it!

Decided to go from Cadillac ATS to small SUV for increased safety. Did a lot research comparing the RDX to other brands and decided to choose Acura due to what you get for the money. The standard safety features would cost way more with similar vehicles. The infotainment system is intuitive and easy to use. My past cars have had a touchscreen and there are always fingerprints that you have to constantly clean off the screen, so I actually prefer this system. My only complaint is that you have to move up a package to get a heated steering wheel, but this is not a deal breaker.

Fun to drive, good performance.

We really like this car except for the interface for entertainment, phone etc. We replaced a 2016 Ford Edge which worked so much better on interfacing with it's Synch 3 system. Tried to buy another Edge but they couldn't find the model and color we wanted. Ended up with the RDX.

Fun vehicle to drive.

The RDX is smaller than what I thought I was going to purchase. I got the RDX A-Spec, White with Red Leather and big is it a good looking vehicle.
