  • Edmunds – “Occupants enjoy an airy cabin, and the new in-floor storage of the large cargo area is a terrific bonus.”††
  • Kelley Blue Book – “It’s not often that “value” and “luxury” coincide, but in the 2019 RDX they are happy partners.”†††

The new Acura RDX and MDX are both offered with features like leather upholstery, the AcuraWatch™ driver assistance package, a V6 engine, and a variety of other premium packages.
