Let’s start with the precisely crafted V6 engine. This is an engine that has a displacement of 3.5 L, breathes through 24 valves, fuelled through direct-injection, possesses different performance profiles through i-VTEC, and produces a max of 290 hp with all those. The 9-speed automatic transmission with Sequential SportShift and paddle shifters helps, delivering 19 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. My week of driving netted me 25 mpg.

The MDX does more than just carry you around; it provides an exhilarating experience that seems to blend the driver with the road. Value is expressed and experienced through the actual benefits of driving the car. Benefits like exceptional comfort, spacious cabin with seating for seven, and cutting-edge technology accompanied by numerous safety features—all good reasons to check out the Acura MDX.

Engineering and artistry combine perfectly.
