Overview & Reviews

Introduced last year, Acura's capable SUV receives only minor changes for 2002. There are four new exterior colors, and enhancements have been made to reduce noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) for a quieter, more comfortable ride.

• Powerful V6 engine, roomy interior, fold-flat third-row seat, sophisticated 4WD system.

• Limited off-road capability, below-average tow rating, lacks personality.

  Efficient but boring! - 2002 Acura MDX

  Very efficient SUV, falls short of being a "Luxury" SUV.

  Get One!! - 2002 Acura MDX
  By I LOVE THIS CAR!! - November 22 - 10:00 am

  I love my MDX!! Considered Pilot, but interior/exterior quality were not the same. No sunroof or heated seats in the Pilot either! MDX does not have some features youd expect for the money - auto/HID headlights especially, and it needs the touring pkg for power passenger seat, 6 disc CD, and without it roofrack is a $300 option. Tall folks will have trouble finding a place for their left foot, and the transmission hunts for its gear on only slight upgrades. Overall, I LOVE IT!! (Build more, please!)

  noisy noisy - 2002 Acura MDX
  By Norick Baboomian - January 27 - 10:00 am

  Its a ok suv to have, couldnt wait to buy it. But for a $45k suv I could buy a quieter suv. Lots of wind and road noise. The armrest is not comfortble while driving. Should have waited another year so I can get an improved 2002 model. Acura doesnt take the responsibility to upgrade it, so I am not happy with their service. One of the victims of a first year production car buyr.

  2001 mdx - 2002 Acura MDX
  By GN - May 4 - 10:00 am

  Has drivability problems: Engine hesitates slightly when first started, engine cold, going approx. 20 MPH When engine is at full temp., and parked for approx. a half an hour, it will not start. It takes 3 to 4 tries and then starts and runs w/o a hitch. This has happened twice within 5 months. 11,000 miles on it. Acura dealer cannot help. Also DVD does not have all eastern cities in detail such as Naples, FL

  As a family of four, plus a dog, we have found the MDX to be satisfactory in meeting everyones requirements. The towing ability more than handles our ski boat. When we need extra room for long trips, we use a roof mounted carrier. The car handles just as well with the carrier on top. The only performance drawback is the uneven accelaration up hills. It seems to downshift frequently when faced with any grade of more than a minor degree.
