New RDX

Very stylish, nice looking and riding vehicle. Only flaw is the leather on seats that tends to look stretched out over a short period of time.

Nice and comfortable driving

This SUV is very sharp in design and absolutely spacious. The down side is that the engine and road noise. And it has a lot of safety future and extras

Most value of all tested.

Great exterior, beautiful interior and powerful engine. More value than comparable suv out there. Tech package is worth it. The sound system beats other offerings.

This is the vehicle we expected it to be plus more

We like how we sit up higher in this vehicle since we are used to our TLX that we previously had driven. There is plenty of room in the front and back. The ride is smooth and there is plenty of power. It is a very comfortable car and is everything we were looking for.

Most beautiful ride in all of my cars before.

I've owned an Acura MDX before this and want to get a smaller car since I'm not driving kids anymore. Very smooth and agile. The color is just perfect. Very sporty, too!

Love my RDX

This is the 3rd Acura I’ve bought. First PURCHASE was MDX and then bought RDX. Because I travel many miles per day - I bought another RDX a year later. Same color!

Only one day in with the RDX and really happy.

I opted for a Standard level as it included everything I deemed essential and some features I would have thought available only with a higher echelon, such as leather upholstery which was really important to me. I only wish the side mirrors could be electrically retreated as my garage opening is annoyingly narrow.

A Great Vehicle - A Little Noisy

This vehicle looks great, rides well, but it somewhat noisy when accelerating and I do not hear that well. Needs more noise suppression insulation I guess.

Great driving SUV

The RDX does not feel like a Compact SUV. Plenty of room in both front and back seats. Great cargo capacity too. Great driving car with really good power with the turbo and Sport driving dynamics. Very comfortable seats that I have in the Advance Package.
