DRAWN FROM OUR DNA.
The RDX captures the original rebellious spirit of Acura and reshapes it into a new vision for the future. With long sculpted lines and a low, aggressive stance directly inspired by the Acura Precision Concept vehicle, the RDX proudly — and loudly — leads the next generation of Acura.
DIAMOND PENTAGON GRILLE
The Diamond Pentagon grille leads the way forward for Acura design, adding to the sportiness and sleekness of the all-new front fascia of the RDX.
LED LIGHTING
The latest version of Acura’s Jewel Eye® LED headlights shine more brilliantly than ever with seven LED lamps per headlight. From the opposite angle, striking LED dragon tail taillights accentuate the sculpted rear design.
WHEEL OPTIONS
Every detail of the RDX has been designed to grab your attention and hold it tight, down to the dazzling 19” and sporty 20” wheel options.
CONNECTIONS AT YOUR COMMAND
We’ve never shied away from new technology, as long as it enhances the driving experience without interfering with it. The RDX embraces this driver-centric command-centre approach with its revolutionary True Touchpad Interface (TTI). The world’s first application of absolute positioning – wherever you touch on the touchpad is where the action corresponds precisely on the centre display. It’s a personal connection to the RDX you can feel instantly.
APPLE CARPLAY™
The RDX supports Apple CarPlay™*, helping you stay connected to your compatible smart device including music, messages, maps and other useful apps all seamlessly integrated into your centre display.
HEAD-UP DISPLAY
The available colour head-up display (HUD) projects helpful navigation information, speed and traffic signs, quick access to audio and phone as well as safety warning alerts onto your windshield into your line of sight.
EFFORTLESSLY NAVIGATE
Resting above the dash, in concert with the driver’s natural line of sight, a 10.2-inch HD display effortlessly delivers navigation, audio, 3D building and terrain information. Effortlessly, because it’s managed by both the True Touchpad Interface and a brand-new natural-language voice-recognition system. No more distracting robotic commands and multilevel requests to find a destination.
ACURALINK™
In addition to AcuraLink™* features such as remote door lock/unlock, automatic collision notification and real-time traffic reporting, the RDX enhances your AcuraLink™ experience with new features, including remote engine start, geo fencing, and Last Mile, which provides walking directions from your parking location to your final destination. And with the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot *, which allows up to 4G LTE speeds on multiple devices, you’ll stay connected wherever the road takes you.
3D SOUND SYSTEM
Whether you want to rock on, or sing along, the available ELS Studio® 3D Premium audio system in the RDX has been engineered to unleash the full sound spectrum of your favourite songs across 16 channels and 710 watts.
TRUST IN SH-AWD®
Get ready to conquer every corner. The RDX is available with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™* (SH-AWD®) which takes handling to a higher level with more stability and precision through all corners and conditions.
272-HP TURBO VTEC® ENGINE
There’s more to the new direct-injection, i-VTEC®, all-aluminum, turbocharged engine than its awe-inspiring 272 horsepower*. There’s also the fact it’s been tuned for greater power and acceleration with a peak torque at only 1600 rpm* and is perfectly mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission for seamless gear shifts.
INTEGRATED DYNAMIC SYSTEM (IDS)
Go from the everyday cruise to the full sport driving experience – all at the turn of a dial. The Integrated Dynamics System (IDS) offers four unique drive modes that match the dynamic response of the SUV to both your mood and your driving environment – Comfort, Snow, Sport and Sport+.
ADAPTIVE DAMPER SYSTEM
The available Adaptive Damper System allows the RDX to remain soft and comfortable during highway cruising, yet firm when the road requires high-performance handling, adjusting responsiveness based on driving conditions.
FIND INNER PEACE
Welcome to a driver-focused cockpit. Everything from the leather wrapped steering wheel and rich, available leather seats to the high-grade cabin materials, including brushed aluminum and available Natural Olive Ash Burl Wood, say let’s go for a drive.
PANORAMIC MOONROOF
The ultra-wide panoramic moonroof makes an already roomy cabin feel limitless. Let the sun, or breeze, in, and enjoy some natural light on your drive. And not to worry about your passengers – the roof stretches all the way back to the rear so no one is left out of enjoying a great view.
CARGO SPACE
The RDX also offers an incredible 881 litres of cargo capacity, including smart underfloor storage, all of which is easily accessible through the power-operated and available hands-free tailgate.
FULLY ADJUSTABLE SEATING
Feel connected to the road in the available 16-way power-adjustable front seats, which include 4-way power adjustable lumbar support, power thigh extension, power side bolster support, and featuring heating and cooling ventilation.
SAFETY LEAD BY ACURAWATCH™
An array of driver safety and assistive technologies, AcuraWatch™ is designed to give you the freedom to more fully enjoy the drive. The system is engineered to detect and notify the driver of potential hazards on the road, and can even adjust the vehicle in some cases for you to avoid or mitigate certain threats. The MDX features the following: Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow*, Forward Collision Warning (FCW) System* and Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS®)*, available Blind Spot Information (BSI) System*, Lane Departure Warning (LDW) System*, Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*, Road Departure Mitigation (RDM™) System*, and available Cross Traffic Monitor system*.
ADVANCED COMPATIBILITY ENGINEERING
Acura’s next-generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure is engineered to absorb and disperse frontal impact energy more evenly around the vehicle, so less of it transfers to what really matters: the vehicle’s occupants.
SURROUND VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM
The available surround view camera system* is engineered to give you a 360-degree view of the space around the RDX. Six unique camera views, parking sensor information and dynamic guidelines that show your expected path connect you with your surroundings. And with a rear camera washer, you’ll be able to see more, more often.
A-SPEC APPEAL.
Nothing wrong with standing out a little. Every feature on the RDX A-SPEC has been designed to catch your eye and leave a lasting impression from precision-crafted sport seats to glistening metal sports pedals.
AGGRESSIVE BODY STYLING
It is impossible for the A-SPEC to go unnoticed with its sleek, crisp front and rear fascia, stylish bumpers, and dual oval exhaust finishers.
20″ SHARK GRAY WHEELS
These five-spoke alloy wheels impress in every sense, delivering a more connected drive when combined with road-gripping tires.
SPORTS STEERING WHEEL
Front and centre is an A-SPEC-exclusive sports steering wheel with a thicker grip for improved confidence while handling.
RED LEATHER INTERIOR
Look sharp and feel sharp in the exclusive red-leather interior with sporty black Alcantara inserts. For an even sleeker look, you can select a completely black interior.
ACCENT LIGHTING
A red glow accents the satin silver-faced instrument panel to further complement your performance desires.
