Which Vehicles Have Acura AWD?

The Acura lineup is celebrated for its exceptional style and performance, and the Acura AWD system is one prime example of the brand’s expert engineering. Most new vehicles are available with Acura Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®), a state-of-the-art system that optimizes driver control on even the most challenging drives. From the Acura MDX SH-AWD® to the Acura TLX AWD, find out why so many Salt Lake City and South Jordan drivers are opting for Acura AWD vehicles every day at Mike Hale Acura.

What is Acura SH-AWD®?

Let’s start with the basics. What is Acura SH-AWD®? Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™, or Acura SH-AWD®, is the brand’s exclusive drivetrain technology. It streamlines your handling, boosts your performance, and gives you the extra grit that you need to power through any obstacle. What makes the Acura SH-AWD® technology stand out from the competition?

• Acura SH-AWD® monitors your vehicle’s stats constantly to create the most advantageous power distribution between the front and rear wheels. 
• Your Acura AWD system will send up to 90% of its total power to the front wheels in ideal driving conditions to boost fuel economy.
• When accelerating, the Acura AWD system will shift power to the rear wheels to offer better traction. And when accelerating through curves, the system sends up to 70% of its power to the outside wheels to aid in control.

What Acura Models Come With AWD?

Whether you have got your eye on the Acura TLX AWD or RDX AWD, you will be blown away by the performance of your next model. If you’re looking for an Acura sedan or SUV with AWD, you can find this technology standard or available on the following lineups:

• Acura TLX SH-AWD®
• Acura RDX SH-AWD®
• Acura MDX SH-AWD®

While you will not find Acura AWD offered on the Acura Integra or Acura Integra Type S DE5, the Acura ZDX is an all-electric model with its own innovative dual-motor electric Acura AWD system. This differs slightly from the Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ found in gas-powered models, but it is just as dynamic on West Jordan roads.
