2019 Acura MDX
The 2019 Acura MDX is a safe and conservative choice among family-size crossover SUVs. The 2019 Acura MDX full-size crossover hit the gym this year. The current generation MDX dates back to the 2014 model year, comes into senior status for the automotive world. But the 2019 Acura MDX’s virtues are intact. Thanks to a constant stream of updates, the MDX remains a top choice for a luxury SUV.
Acura MDX with three rows of seats and a large, comfortable cabin, it works well as a family carrier, and it offers a lot of value thanks to an impressive number of standard features for the money. The Acura MDX 2019 has some disadvantages, most importantly, that its interior does not quite match the nice luxury found in some competitive models. Overall, the 2019 MDX remains a worthwhile contender under three-row midsize luxury crossover SUVs.
2019 Acura MDX Features
The 2019 Acura MDX is a three-row luxury SUV that seats up to seven. It is offered in four trim levels (also called packages): Standard, Technology, Advance, and A-Spec. The Standard and Technology MDX are well-equipped, and the Advance has all the features you probably want in this class vehicle. A-Spec is an appearance package. All of the above use a 3.5-liter V6 engine (290 hectares, 267 pounds) that is linked to a nine-speed automatic gearbox with front or overall wheel. The Sports Hybrid uses a smaller 3.0 liter V6 in combination with three electric cars (combined 321 hp, 289 lb-ft) and a seven-speed automatic gearbox to deliver approximately 27 mpg in combined city or highway management.
Highlights of the Standard trim include 18-inch wheels, automatic LED headlights, adaptive suspension dampers, power raising, a sunset, and keyless access and ignition. Inside you will find power-adjustable front seats with heating, driver’s seat memory settings, a power steering wheel, leather upholstery, three-zone automatic climate control, and an eclipse rearview mirror.

Technical features include support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a dual-screen infotainment system with a 7-inch touchscreen, Bluetooth, four USB ports and an eight-speaker audio system. The MDX’s Standard AcuraWatch Safety Suite features forward impact warning with the automatic emergency brake, lane and road failure warning and mitigation, and adaptive cruise control. Finally, there is the all-wheel-drive MDX Sport Hybrid. It is only available in the Technology and Advances trims.
2019 Acura MDX Interior
The MDX is spacious and versatile for the medium size luxury segment, and although its third row is rigid, it is more useful than most. However, mainstream models like the mechanically-related Honda pilot are even more practical. A highly adjustable driver’s seat and a power tilt and telescopic steering column are standard on all MDX models, so you’re likely to find a comfortable position. The third row suits only children and maybe adults of short size. Yet it is better than the third row of other luxury SUVs. The front seats feel well in every dimension, but the main room in the second row is surprisingly tight.
2019 Acura MDX Engine
2019 MDX is available with two power stations. The optional petrol-electric hybrid has a 3.0-liter V6 engine, while the basic version has a 3.5-liter V6. While the hybrid delivers better fuel consumption and faster gear, the basic version is not bad. All MDXs are available at Acura’s sophisticated Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system, which has a tangible positive impact on handling.
The 3.5 liters 290-horsepower V6, nine-speed automatic gearbox, and optional Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive are important factors to make the MDX one of the most self-sufficient mid-SUVs. It’s not exciting, but it’s effortlessly capable. Acceleration is smooth and confident. The MDX hits 60 mph in 6.9 seconds, which is considerably faster than the Infiniti QX60 and the Lexus RX 350L, but a bit slower than the competitors equipped with a turbodiesel load and truck.
2019 Acura MDX Safety
The 2019 MDX offers many standard advanced security features. Last year’s MDX earned a Top Safety Pick Award of the IIHS and five-star overall of NHTSA. The MDX’s standard advance ed safety technology has helped to prevent a “Superior” rating for incidents. We expect these scores to switch significantly to this year’s car, so we give the MDX an 8 for safety.
All of the MDX models are equipped with LED headlamps, front-impact crash alert with an automatic brake, lane departure warning with lane control, and adaptive cruise control. The technology package adds blind spot monitors with the rear cross-traffic warning and the 2019 Acura MDX Advance package adds a surround view room.
