This Year's Model Updates:

Updates for the 2010 Acura MDX crossover bring a new corporate grille, revised front and rear fascias, an updated V6 engine paired with a new six-speed transmission, a freshened cabin and a gaggle of new high-tech goodies. The latter include a hard-drive-based navigation system (with music storage, traffic rerouting and weather reporting) and a multi-angle back-up camera.

Pros:
  • Capable handling, high safety scores, loads of optional high-tech toys, powerful engine with decent fuel economy, relatively large third-row seat for a midsize luxury SUV.
Cons:
  • Dashboard cluttered with buttons, non-premium crossovers offer more passenger and cargo space.

  • Trip need more DVD Audio - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    I just took a 4600 mile trip from San Diego to KC down to Nashville and stopping off at Memphis. The ride of the car superb, seating is the most comfortable, I am 61" and 270 lbs and never have been in a vehicle so comfortable. The AC unit did exceptional while driving through the desert in Arizona and New Mexico it was like instant cool when turning the car on after stopping for gas or food.

  • Best in class but - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    We bought it b/c MB gl450 lease ends in 4 months and my wife doesnt want to keep paying 2 car loans (leasing MB amg e63). Before gl, had 07 ml, 05 rx, and 01 mdx. Test drive all usual suspects. Mdx has best quality (as good as MB) and tech for price range. But I have 3 complaints. 1. Feel under power for 300 hp feel less power than 07 ml (263 hp) and hwy wind noise. 2. Questionable fuel economy. 19 mpg combined in mdx. 18 mpg for my gl450 only 1 mile diff. Hmm? 3. Quality of back-up camera is worst than my Prius. Whats up with that !

  • Best luxury SUV on the market - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    The mdx is my first Honda/Acura, and after almost a month of ownership Im thoroughly impressed with the quality, workmanship, and technology features of the mdx. It has plenty of room for a family of 4 . The handling and acceleration are top notch for an SUV of this size and weight, you feel confident driving it. Love the navigation, voice activation, and bluetooth connectivity. Dvd entertainment system works great. Awesome sound system. Well thought-out interior. Aggressive exterior design. Definitely a better buy for the $$ compared to other luxury SUVs from BMW, Mercedes, and Volvo. Highly recommend to others!

  • Love it! Love it! Love it! - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    I picked this car up 2 weeks ago and I absolutely love it! While its still early in the ownership experience for me, I have had no problems at all yet. I have read some comments about the dashboard being cluttered with buttons, but this has not been an issue for me and I find everything easy to operate and understand. I purchased the Advance package with White Pearl exterior and Umber interior and its beautiful! Its so much fun to drive and the acceleration is swift and exhilarating! Im looking forward to many happy years with my new baby!

  • Handles like a car - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    This vehicle is a real pleasure to drive. The mileage is not great but I am getting 16 in the city and 18 for mixed driving and the car is not broken in yet. I expected the mileage to be much worse during the break-in period. The NAV system and other Tech features are great but all the buttons can be confusing. The bluetooth hands free phone feature and NAV voice commands are easy to use. The sound system sounds fantastic and the IPOD link works easily. The back-up camera with a choice of three different views is a very nice feature.

  • Simply the best SUV - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    Purchase my 2010 MDX Tech/Ent and without any doubt is the best handling SUV on the market. The new auto shift is smooth and makes the vehicle that much more responsive. The 2010s are much more quiet and upgrades to the technology is amazing. The stereo motivates you to drive more and the seats and active restraints are so much more comfortable. Stunning SUV.

  • A very well thought out vehicle - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    Have owned many SUVs over the last decade, last 2 cars were a Cadillac Escalade and a Porsche Cayenne. This vehicle has all the amenities you need in a well thought out package. Excellent stereo in the ENT package, very useful blind spot indicator, great Nav, even the 3rd row is ok for kids. Excellent seats and ride is comfortable. Forget the BMW and Mercedes, pricey and not nearly as comfortable inside.

  • Love this Vehicle - 2010 Acura MDX
    By -

    We just bought this vehicle. I got a very good price on this vehicle ($47,500 out the door). I also got some great accessories included in this price. My wife is the primary driver and she loves it. We took a trip to Oregon (from Washington) and the ride was exceptionally smooth and handles great. Ive owned several SUVs before, but never like this. The cool gadgets is what I love about the MDX. NAV Voice recognition, automatic tailgate, keyless remote starting system, DVD entertainment system to name a few. I told myself "one day I will get a luxury vehicle" and now I finally got one! If you are shopping for a luxury SUV, I recommend the MDX. You will be very pleasantly surprised.
