Wanted to make the change from myAudi A6 Quattro to an SUV, My wife has the Lexus 450h. After driving several models (mostly new) of SUVs, my research lead me to Acura and the 2017 MDX Sport Hybrid. I found only 5 in the entire nation and flew from CO to CA (Oakland Acura) to buy it. First off is Acura’s great CPO program. Next is the refined styling and features (I have the Advanced package). The hybrid engine is smooth and I get from 24-27 mpg in combined driving. The acceleration and shifting is very smooth (I think my wife likes my Acura better than her 450h as she is very complimentary of the vehicle when she get in). The adaptive cruise is OK but I find it a little awkward and I am OK not using for the few times I am on the open road. I find the engine shut off at stops to very responsive when I accelerate and I don’t even realize it is present (maybe that’s the benefit of the hybrid vs the non-hybrid model). The Sh-AWD works very well in the CO snow and I have no problems getting anywhere. Originally looked at other brands (Audi, BMW, Lexus) but glad I found Acura and the Sport Hybrid MDX. Would gladly buy again. One item of note is the Hybrid is NOT for towing! If you want to pull anything, might need something else.

Andrew and ron helped me out great deal so happy with my vehicle through financing

As a two time Lexus Hybrid owner, I was searching for a newer used Lexus RX450h hybrid. I came across this vehicle in my search, unaware that Acura even made an MDX in a hybrid variant. I decided to go test drive a new one locally at my Acura dealer. I was simply stunned at how Honda engineers had put this SUV package together from the NSX super car. It was amazing. I love the seemingly endless smooth power from the 3.0 V6 engine and dual clutch transmission. Having owned Lexus hybrid SUV’s they seem downright anemic compared to this car. It is definitely sporty and fun to drive this 4,500 pound SUV around town or up in the mountains. It handles much better than the Lexus on dirt and gravel roads with the super handling all wheel drive (independent electric motors at each rear wheel allow one wheel to have power while potentially braking the other in turns). I can’t wait to try it out in the snow. The best part of all of this is how the car seamlessly transitions from the gas engine to the three electric motors without even a shudder. The only indication you get is the tachometer drops to zero and the quiet ride. I handily beat the EPA estimates of 26/27 mpg and usually get 32 mpg in mixed highway and city driving, and have even attained 34 mpg on a tank. Expect about 30 mpg on a constant cruise at 75 mph. I have surpassed 500 miles on several tanks with over three gallons of gas remaining, so 600 miles is possible - take that Tesla! Your bladder will give out long before the car needs gas! All of this power and luxury with top notch safety features. I love the lane keep assist and lane departure warning paired with the radar cruise control. It’s like semi autonomous driving. I drove from St Louis to Denver by myself in about 12 1/2 hours and felt like I had an auto pilot guiding me the whole way. Simply amazing. I also like the surround view cameras and the Milano leather seats which are so comfortable. The ELS sound system is amazing, and once you get used to the two screens for NAV and the radio/climate control, you won’t even blink. Apple Play came out in 2018, and is the only thing I would like, but that a pretty minor thing compared to the great value this car offers in a used vehicle. I picked my up as a CPO car from an Acura dealer, with just 16,000 miles on it, and it feels like a new car to me. Finally, the cavernous three row seating and cargo area holds 91 cu ft of stuff. It beat the Lexus by about 15 cu ft, and is only 4 cu ft smaller than a Tahoe. That is what really sealed the deal for me. I needed extra space to be able to clean and service our VRBO rental, and this vehicle performs in every way. Do yourself a favor and test drive this car. I think you’ll be glad you did. I felt like we would never go off of Toyota/Lexus again after having owned three Lexus and three Toyota’s, but I have to say, the Honda engineers really outdid themselves with this one.

We had a such stellar experience at the Paragon Woodside. We dealt with Imran Muhammad and Justin Hili. They really took the time to listen to our proposal and we entered into such a great deal! Imran took the time to ensure we have all the documents we need. Paul Padilla also assisted us. Overall, we had such a positive experience and we strongly recommend their dealership to anyone planning to do an upgrade.

This vehicle hits all the right notes on style, comfort and value, but with so much tech packed into this platform, its reliability is questioned. The 3rd Gen MDX has a long history of ZF transmission issues. They rarely fail completely, but they are known to shift poorly under certain circumstances. MDX owners just learn to live with it for the most part, but it's a noticeable shortcoming on an otherwise stellar drivetrain. The Hybrid version of this vehicle has a different transmission and frankly operates in a different manner than standard AWD SUV's. Having three electric motors assisting the drivetrain at various points illustrates how complex the Hybrid MDX's propulsion system can be. The system although powerful at 300 Hp is not seamless and linear in it's acceleration. The engine and electric motors combined are all applied in hard acceleration but there are distinct surges in the powerband that you can feel. Reminiscent of a transmission slip but not exactly. Acura must be aware of this glitch and issued a TSB that is supposed to address it. So with that said the MDX Hybrid is a really good SUV with some issues in it's complex drivetrain. The ultimate reliability will be determined as we surge and slip into the future.
