2017 Acura RDX consumer reviews

I looked at many different brands of SUVs at this year's Philadelphia Auto Show. The only cars that I took a picture of and was interested in was the RDX and MDX. When it came time to buy a car, I went to look at Lexus, BMW and Acura. It was clear to me that the Acura RDX had everything I wanted. I had a good experience buying it at Elite Acura. I believe this car will last me many years as my previous Acura Integra did.

If you are in the market for a AWD Luxury SUV this is probably the best bang for your buck. I test drove BMW X-1 and X-3. The X-3 BMW handled better and felt more responsive but came with less standard options and cost about 5K more than the Acura. The X-1 was again a better handling car and felt sportier but was lacking standard equipment and was also much smaller than the RDX. I test drove an Infiniti QX30---Way to small (Felt like I was in a coffin) and a QX50. Qx50 was very dated and the price was about the same as the Acura after wheeling and dealing for about 2 hours. The MPG on the infiniti was a big deal breaker also (20MPG). I am getting about 26 mpg on the highway right now with the RDX. The Acura has 270 HP and it is obvious. I have owned 2 Honda CR-V's and the Acura is basically the reliability of the Honda with the Luxury and power of the Acura. AWD system is Honda too and I have never had any problems in my CR-V's concerning the AWD or reliability. One negitive thing about the Acura compared to the other Luxury SUV's is the styling. I love the front end back the rear is lacking styling that other SUV's have, It's just kinda Blah in the rear. But I am very pleased with Acura and may have become a future Acura only buyer as I was for years with Honda.

The safety features add significant security to driving the vehicle. I love the driver alerts and assistance, comfort, and ease of maneuvering the RDX.

Car met expectations of high Acura quality and attention to detail for safety and comfort. Recommend this for small family.

I got the fully loaded RDX and all the features are great. Lane departure, blind spot detection, adaptive cruise, etc. Very comfy interior too. Very good sound system. I would recommend this; except for the MILEAGE which isn't great. And it takes high test which is expensive.

I purchased this vehicle with the Advanced Package. It's wonderful. Has great safety features, lovely interior and exterior and rides beautifully. It picks up speed extremely well with little effort when merging on to an expressway yet is ideal for city driving, too. I spent a great deal of time researching a luxury smaller SUV and the Acura RDX was the perfect fit in regard to "bang for the buck."

I have only had this car for two weeks. It is very comfortable, it performs well. I wanted a 6cyl for a reason! I have the base with the AccuraWatch which is a package adding extra safety features. I am glad I got the base, it has what I wanted: power seats, leather(ette), backup camera, smart key. There are a few minor things I wish it came with but doesn't, such as the ability to program the door locks, back-up sensors and voice commands. I did drive an RDX with the Technology package and I am glad I didn't get talked into that. The ride is comfortable but the car does feel bigger than it is for some reason.

I love it! So pleased with my purchase, the Sales team were wonderful, Bev, Mike & Len made the experience smooth and seemingly effortless! I felt no pressure at all :-)

Smooth ride and luxurious features! Navi and voice recognition ion are very handy to use. Also, love the steering wheel controls.

I think it's an excellent choice for an SUV and a luxury vehicle, I would love to be able to afford one. The drive to turn is immediate the fold down seats you don't have to even fold down push of a button. I test drove several and I mean several and this was bar none the the best on the market for the money.
