Overview & Reviews
The Acura RDX is a small luxury crossover SUV with two rows of seats. The RDX has never been a bona fide class leader in performance or luxury, but like many Acuras, it's a well-rounded vehicle with numerous strengths. In reviews, we've praised various RDX models for their quick acceleration, confident highway cruising demeanor and composed handling. We've found the RDX's cabin to be both well-constructed and reasonably spacious, with exceptionally supportive front seats to boot. The RDX also enjoys a strong reputation for overall quality and reliability.
If you're shopping for an RDX, you'll find early models with a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, standard all-wheel drive and unusually sporty handling. Later versions of the Acura RDX stand out for their added refinement, power and interior space, and there's also a front-wheel-drive version aimed at buyers in milder climates. Unlike some rivals, the RDX keeps shoppers' lives simple with a generously equipped base model and a straightforward, package-based options structure.

Excellent SUV - 2007 Acura RDX
By Garg - September 24 - 10:32 pmI love the F1 system, drives smoothly, love the interiors, blue light is amazing. GPS is awesome. Fuel economy is bit poor but justified when you buy RDX.

Technology Package - 2008 Acura RDX
By dan - September 24 - 12:53 pmIf you get bored easily, opt for the technology package. Not only will this car talk to you but it will let you know exactly whats going on performance-wise down to each wheel. The rumors of turbo lag are true from stand-still acceleration. However, when the turbo kicks in, its like no feeling a V6 can offer. You feel like you are being lifted off your seat then pushed back into it. My wife has a Murano. This car is much smoother, ride, acceleration, braking and even the seats are softer. If you want the performance that may outrun a BMW 3 series but need room for the family pet, this is the vehicle!

2007 Acura RDX: My Experience - 2007 Acura RDX
By Carey - September 20 - 2:39 pmMy use of the car is limited to a 10 round trip commute to the office 5 days a week and about 150 miles of driving over the weekend. The car drives wonderfully and has great acceleration. Highway use is phenomenal. Extremely comfortable back support in the drivers seat which comes in handy for my bad back. Two gripes: first is the poor gas mileage (18-19 city driving is disappointing (but what did I expect when I bought a car with turbo, right?)) and the CD player isnt performing well. Still, all in all, its very fun to drive and sharp-looking.

Lovin my Ride! - 2017 Acura RDX
By Andih - September 16 - 11:27 amConducted extensive research on the RDX before I went to the dealership. I scored an excellent deal and got the car that I wanted. I agree with Edmunds review that it is quick to brake when there is plenty of space that does not require the over reaction. Love the dual screen and while there is a learning curve on the navigation, my phone app has a better navigation then what Acura provides. Still. Its not a deal breaker and I look forward to when I get to drive my car- which is a first for me. Definitely a smooth, quiet ride. And very comfortable on all fronts. Just love it.

2008 RDX - 2008 Acura RDX
By lwfineny - September 12 - 1:53 pmIve had the 2008 RDX for just a few days - very impressed so far. Handling and acceleration are great. Im 65" and have over 3 inches of space between my head and the roof - pretty amazing for a car with a moonroof. Initial fit and finish seem perfect. All in all, its a lot of fun to drive.

Be careful of roof - 2007 Acura RDX
By CB - September 10 - 2:11 pmWe bought a new RDX two months ago and now have been hit with a $4,500 bill to repair the roof’s “complete collapse.” We mounted a bike rack on the roof, virtually identical to the one Acura sells as an RDX accessory. My son got on the roof to make sure that the bikes were placed in the rack properly – just like we’ve done on other cars we’ve owned with bike racks. This turned out to be a giant mistake, even though Acura never states anywhere that you shouldn’t do this. This time though the weak, badly- designed Acura roof “collapsed.” Acura will not cover this huge expense – so much for customer service. My advice: don’t buy this car especially if you’re putting something on the roof.

Hands down winner! - 2007 Acura RDX
By Spoiled - August 28 - 10:43 pmI drove 5 other smaller sized SUVs, the BMW, Lexus, Mercedes, Nissan and Infiniti. None could even come close to the features for the money in the RDX. Envy of everyone at work. So much fun to drive it makes me wish I had a longer commute to work. Even with gas prices the way they are I find myself looking for excuses to drive somewhere. It rains a lot here and the SH AWD is very noticibly helpful in those conditions. This vehicle is fun, safe and a great value. Would recommend it to anyone.

Too Fun To Drive - 2007 Acura RDX
By MattAZ - August 21 - 6:48 pmBeside this being my 3rd Honda product (2000 Accord Coupe and then 2005 Acura TSX), I was looking for a bigger car than the TSX, but still wanted that performance and sportiness found in the TSX. The Lexus and BMW equivalents to the RDX cant even compare and the RDX is even more fun to drive than the TL! There are only a few improvements I would like to see, but overall, I have yet to be displeased by this car. Fast, sporty, good looking and yet extremely safe for the family and it has AWD - for a price of under 35K, you cant beat it. MPG for one year has averaged 19.8 - not bad. The car performs totally different in auto versus manual/paddle shifters.

RDX - 2007 Acura RDX
By judy - August 10 - 5:57 pmI love driving this car. It rides smoothly and it feels luxurious. The only thing I really hate is having to fill up the tank so often and having to pay so much because I can only use premium.
