Overview & Reviews
The Acura MDX is a midsize luxury SUV with a carlike unibody platform and three rows of seats. The original MDX bowed in 2001, at a time when most competitors still featured body-on-frame construction and the term "crossover" was but a glimmer in some marketer's eye. Since then, Acura has maintained the MDX's family-friendly packaging, including standard seven-passenger seating, while spicing up the recipe with various styling, performance and handling enhancements. In typical Acura fashion, every MDX comes well equipped, with options generally limited to a few choice features bundled into packages.
New or used, the Acura MDX stands out for its comfort, versatility and refinement. It's one of our top recommendations for a family-oriented luxury crossover SUV. In reviews, we've found the MDX to be a polished performer, as it remains one of the more engaging luxury crossovers to drive and also provides a commendably supple ride. Weak points include cramped third-row accommodations for adults and less sumptuous interior appointments than in some rivals, though the MDX's strong resale value offers ample compensation.

Great SUV - 2002 Acura MDX
By MRH - November 14 - 2:00 amI have used this vehicle to haul large items long distances on the roof to carry home improvement items and landscaping materials and to carry the family 5000 miles on vacation. There isnt a better, more reliable vehicle on the market.

Liberty loves it! - 2002 Acura MDX
By ladylib - November 13 - 2:00 amThe MDX was not without inital minor problems (the thud, the weeping mirrors) but both problems were resolved by Acura and the dealership. Hubby was recently in a 50mph freeway crash in our MDX, and while our vehicle is pronbably totalled, he wasnt. This vehicle has earned its admirably high safety rating - it did what it was designed to do and Im grateful. Those foks at Acura build an awewsome egg crate. Were not looking elsewhere - were just planning on replacing our damaged MDX with a newer model. Thanks Acura!

Still Getting Asked How I Like It - 2001 Acura MDX
By 2MINPINS - November 5 - 2:00 amI have owned many Honda cars and am so glad I returned to the Honda family. The solid build quality of the MDX makes it a comfortable pleasure to drive whether to and from work or on long trips. The vehicles performance many times lets me forget I am driving an SUV and not a sportscar.

mdx to others - 2002 Acura MDX
By rawman - November 4 - 10:00 amWhen I purchased my MDX, I tried all the other competitors cars before making my final decision. The RX300, though quiet, was too soft and felt very small inside, even though outside it was very little different from the MDX. The BMW was quick, but again, very small inside and very stiff in normal driving. The Mercedes was a joke. We bought it at Hopkins Acura in Redwood City. They were great. No markup and no pre-accessorizing. I only had to wait 4 months to get my car. Cant recommend them highly enough.

Love My MDX! - 2005 Acura MDX
By Paula - November 2 - 6:53 pmI appreciate the way my MDX handles. It is as comfortable as a sedan, yet with all the added space and uses like a truck. I am extremely pleased.

Best SUV - 2007 Acura MDX
By Joe - November 1 - 9:03 amThis is a very fun and smooth SUV. I have owned it about three weeks, and have the best time driving it. The gas mileage is not the best but I can live with it. Do wish that the roof rails, side running boards, and side body moldings did not have to be extras, but they make the car look so much better.

A Great SUV - 2002 Acura MDX
By MDXowner - November 1 - 2:00 amThe MDX is a capable blend of SUV, and family car, with a dash of sports car thrown in. The exterior styling is distinctive and elegant. It looks sporty and clean. The touring package adds nice wheels and a roof rack which compliments the overall styling theme. The interior design is on par with most cars in this class. It hosts a bevy of standard features such as leather trimmed seats, 8-way power drivers seat, and heated front seats. The engine is refined and strong.
