The Acura MDX can generate more power than the Lexus TX, regardless of which engine you choose, though torque does fall behind if we only consider the naturally aspirated 3.5L V6 engine. However, the 2025 Acura MDX generally provides superior handling capabilities thanks to the proprietary Super-Handling All-Wheel-Drive® (SH-AWD®) system available throughout the MDX lineup. South Jordan drivers who value both power and drivability should pick the Acura MDX over the Lexus TX.

2025 Acura MDX vs. 2025 Lexus TX: Technology

When it comes to choosing between the Acura MDX or Lexus TX based on their respective technology features, the quality-focused West Jordan driver will note that the Acura MDX offers more technology in the areas that matter. Here are just a few areas where the MDX vs. TX comparison in technology goes to the MDX:

2025 Acura MDX Standard Tech Features

  • Acura Premium Audio System with 11 Speakers
  • Bang & Olufsen Ultra Sound System with 31 speakers
  • 10.5-inch HUW Display

Lexus TX Standard Tech Features

  • 12-speaker audio
  • Premium Mark Levinson® 21-speaker PurePlay Surround Sound (optional)
  • HUD (available w/ optional Technology Package)

The 2025 MDX comes standard with the B&O Ultra Sound System if you choose the Acura MDX Type S Advance, while the Mark Levinson® speaker set needs to be purchased separately, regardless of which Lexus TX trim you choose. Similarly, all three Acura MDX trims that have access to the HUW display (Advance, Type S, Type S Advance) have it as a standard feature. For the Lexus TX, the HUD is only available if you also purchase the optional Technology Package.

2025 Acura MDX vs. 2025 Lexus TX: Interior Comfort

In short, the 2025 Acura MDX provides a more comfortable ride than the Lexus TX. Check out the types of front seats that come standard across their respective lineups:

2025 Acura MDX Front Seating

  • Front 12-Way Power Seats with Power Lumbar Support
  • Front 16-Way Power Seats with Power Lumbar, Thigh Extension, Side Bolsters, and 9-way Massage Function

2025 Lexus TX Front Seating

  • 8-way power-adjustable driver’s and front passenger’s seat with power lumbar adjustment
  • 10-way power-adjustable driver’s and front passenger’s seat with 4-way power lumbar adjustment

As you can see, even the less-adjustable 12-way power seats that come standard on the baseline Acura MDX are capable of finer adjustments compared to the 10-way power seats you will find on top-of-the-line Lexus TX models. The MDX also comes with three-position Driver Seat and Front Passenger Seat Memory functions, while the Lexus TX only offers this feature for the driver side.
