2019 Acura MDX vs Lexus RX Comparison: Which Luxury Crossover Does a Better Job?

[@ZeeMan84]

This review has the worst conclusion as in the whole review they're complaining on Lexus RX but at the end crowns it the winner, WTF.

[@raysylvia2846]

That said the engine runs better and rides better but picks the lexus because it special lol

[@bigwavedave350]

This was horrible. I feel sorry for lexus letting these two kids drive their car. They don't get it. She belongs in a Honda civic and he belongs in a Subaru forester. They don't understand why lexus does so well. You will never understand! Just stick to the civic and the Subaru, they are good cars, just don't try to review such a success of an suv. You're not doing anyone a favor.

[@ericdayter5152]

I love Lexus I do, I do. Owed a Lexus Rx400h loved it. but, my Acura MDX is much better all around over the RX!

[@tc9392]

I think most would be happy with either vehicles. Quality stuff from both brands. I recently compared the MDX and RX350 for purchase(amongst others). The RX rides better because of its more upscale interior, but the MDX drives so much better and has more interior space. I ultimately went with the Acura, but I would have been happy with the Lexus as well. Good luck to all those making the same comparison and buying decision.

Lexus will cost less in the long term because of resale value and reliability. Scotty kilmer approved!

You buy a Honda for the guts. Acuras are Honda bones on a slightly more expensive exterior. That’s what helps keep them under the costs of comparable Lexus, Volvo and BMW.

[@brandonbanner8488]

First off, you guys wrongly evaluated the MDX and Acura as a whole. You guys kept comparing it to a Honda Pilot, which I'm sure it's based on in some capacity, however you stated that the outside gave you pilot vibes, which it DEFINITELY does not. I don't know if you've seen a Pilot, but it definitely isn't similar to the MDX. The inside of the MDX is much nicer than a pilot, and yes the MDX is due for a full refresh, the interior is still very nice and nothing like the Pilot's. They're not even the same size or platform! I feel like you both played into the stereotype or persona of a Lexus. A Lexus is a very nice car, but I feel that your verdict was solely because it was a Lexus. You didn't even talk about SH-AWD, the hybrid system on the MDX, A-Spec or really anything. For goodness sakes, your title is "Which luxury crossover does a better job?" Which you both agreed it was Acura. The Acura drove better, sounded better, had more space, and better useable features. If you weren't going to have the 3 row RX, you should have brought the RDX, which would have definitely handled this RX. Overall I feel the comparison was unfair and slated. Reviews and comparisons are subjective, but to just say the Lexus won, because when you pull up in a Lexus people notice? People notice Acuras too, more and more since their refreshed styling and new designs. As car reviewers, you all have the power to give Acura and other brands like it, the recognition it needs, and the people honest, unbiased opinions. Very disappointed in this review.

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

It's definitely a good idea to consider either and it's a tough choice really. Both the Acura MDX and the Lexus RX are great luxury crossovers that are very comfortable and great to drive. If you want more confort and quietness, the Lexus RX is the one for you, since that's the goal for Lexus products, isolating you from the real world. You'll still get that in the Acura MDX, but you can also drive it more aggressively and it's a lot more fun to drive. Plus, I think the tech is much more easy to use in the MDX, and it's very simplistic for anyone to get in and learn within minutes, whereas with the Lexus infortainment..... yeah, it's easy to see why you wanna just break the screen off of the car xD Either vehicle is a win for me though, but for me, I'd choose the MDX for more practicality and I just love Acura vehicles in general (even though some of their interiors may not be the best), and Acura and parent company Honda are pretty conservative with a lot of things, but I don't mind it.

[@LEORedSun]

I drove the RX last year. What I took away from it was it was like driving an EV. It was that smooth. A frictionless driving experience.

@Nezumi Speed Then that buyer wouldn't consider the MDX which makes the comparison a bit forced. Similar, a buyer who _needs_ the extra space would have already crossed the RX off their list.

[@sub310]

Seems like Acura made a good decision by not sending the top of the line hybrid vehicle. I wonder how a regular RX350 (no F-sport) with the 18" rims would compare vs the MDX that was received. Most of the criticism in the driving dynamics of the RX is due to its F-sport package which comes with the 20" rims. a slightly stiffer suspension and add the Hybrid on top of that. Sometimes simple is best and Acura played their cards right to please Autoguide. The RX isl the better luxury SUV.

[@elaineshen593]

sub310 Great point. My sister was a Lexus general manager, and she told me do not buy the 20” wheels, it just looks nice, but not comfortable to drive

I have owned both RX and MDX. RX definitely better materials. Both infotainment systems stink, but RX really stinks. Where MDX leave the RX in the dust is on the road.

I have a Subaru Outback and I would definitely say whenever my outback goes, i’m definitely going for a MDX. It’s reliable, safe, and it’s really good in the snow. I feel like the older ones like the 2010 ones have the same entertainment system as the pilot, which it does. I’m just so in love with the MDX and I would for sure buy it in the future.

Some fact checks: 1. The Lexus RX-L in most markets will sticker for less than the RX F-Sport Hyrbid you are testing. So, stating that the RX-L would be "much more expensive" than an MDX is simply false. 2. You can change a radio with the simple switch of a button on the steering wheel. You can also customize the remote touch control to be less "jumpy" and you can silence the "ding" sound if you find it annoying all in the setup portion of the vehicle. 3. For SAFETY reasons, you cannot enter an address manually while the car is moving. You can only use voice commands while the car is in motion. I could only watch 4 minutes of this before jumping down here in the comments because so much was wrong. If you're going to "review" a car, do your research first, friends!

I WILL NEVER BUY A HONDA PRODUCT AGAIN. Honda motors tells me that my 2012 MDX is within manufacturing specifications to burn 1 quart of oil per 1000 miles. They manufactured the engines with a defect and now, instead of standing behind their products, have invented specifications that they call "acceptable" to turn their back on the customer. I paid $48000 for a vehicle that began to burn oil at the 60000 mile mark. Every service has been done by Acura dealerships. I've had the complaint checked multiple times. There's now a recall. Guess what? Honda/Acura still refuses to admit that my vehicle has a manufacturing defect. I have a crappy Ram pickup truck that doesn't burn that much oil. So in conclusion, your review is worthless. Interior materials really don't matter when the engine is manufactured with a defect that the manufacturer won't stand behind.

They always love to trash on the Lexus UI and call BMW and Mercedes input methods amazing but I always fail to see what one needs to be controlling with these "amazing UIs" while you're supposed to be driving...cars, especially luxury ones, have become so inundated with stupid shit that have nothing to do with driving on top of people expecting to be spoonfed everything.

I own a 2018 Lexus RX with same infotainment system and for most of its use, it’s not bad once you get used to it.

But the voice recognition for adding full addresses works well, and that’s m only method of entering an address. Lexus is using a larger track pad on their 2019 ES, LS, NX, models which is infinitely better than the RX current mouse. Still not as good as others, but better than their current mouse.

[@esiritoneh2]

Thanks for your honest comparison 👍

[@tacticalm2606]

Jodi Lai and Mr. Agreeing on everything needs to both get fired. Looks like 2 10yr kids were reviewing the car. Worst car review PERIOD. Jodi needs to review only Honda civics!

[@brandonbanner8488]

She doesn't even deserve to talk about Honda/Acura products. They both might as well be Lexus sales reps

[@michaelwilliams596]

Must be the Lincoln driver. Still use the flip phone, right?

[@gregblack8550]

Why am I watching this with the quality content available?

[@xmuta]

TacticalM - Fire both of them, they sux.

[@johnferrier2803]

The Lexus is no doubt a great car, but unfortunately the front end styling looks like it was done by a committee that previously designed the Pontiac Aztec and the Ford Edsel with the final approval of Helen Keller.

[@alexanderpendleton1134]

You did not input your destination with the user friendly voice command...whats up with that or did you forget? You also failed to mention that the Lexus RX still is the number one selling vehicle in its class and all others are "copy cats" end of story. AP

That Acura MDX is so much better than that Lexus - this review is all wrong.

[@patriot8087]

I have had several Acura's I presently have a MDX. the dealer service and support from Acura has gone to He**, almost non existent compared to what it once was, year ago. No more Acura's for me because of this. Findlay Acura of Las Vegas is a total joke. When I bought my Acura they gave me several free oil changes and when I went to use them Findlay would not honer them. Told me some employees had stolen some and they won't honor them, this comes after making a service appointment with them for the oil change Needless to say, I left and have never been back, after being refused to be able to talk to the manger. They covered for him, said he was busy to see me and in a meeting. yeah right! I wrote Acura Corp and told them of my experience they refereed me back to the dealer and I have never heard from either one to this day. I took new deliver of one at Jody Wilkinson in SLC they left the car so it would get hard water makes from there sprinkler system on my Black MDX when I went to pick it up. they said I will have the wash boy take care of it and he scratch the He** out of brand new car and had to send it our to be buffed only to return it with swirl marks from the buffer. like I say No competent service and support from Acura. Byers be ware.

How is having an F sport with hybrid weird?? Press the sport button and both battery & engine kick in and trust me its bloomin fast!! Her evaluation in regards to using premium gas on the f sport is incorrect. I have a F sport and it runs perfectly fine on regular!. Also, the f sport has a stiffer suspension and a more sportier feel to it which I like. Her language and tone is very off putting! Especially when she said "stupid ass Knob" very unprofessional.

[@mynameisnotimportant2854]

Sorry, I disagree with you regarding Toyota’s suspension. I feel Acura has a much better stiffer suspensión and easier to control than Toyota (Lexus). I’ve test drive so many Toyota, including Camry, rx, and it feels loose and much harder to control 😩😩😩. I guess I’m just a Honda person

[@therussiantrollnetwork7464]

I don’t like either of them . Love my 07 mdx

[@Fadic4]

I wouldn’t get this MDX. Acura is coming out with a brand new fully redesigned MDX built on a brand new platform very soon. You see what they did with the RDX? They’re going to do the same thing to the MDX but better.

[@Jtob410]

Fadic4 the new RX is coming soon too, as well as the NX.

[@Fadic4]

Darkivaz - AAA they already have test mules running driving around, expect them to debt late 2019 or very early 2020. At pebble beach 2019 they’re revealing a new sedan and SUV.

[@Fadic4]

Darkivaz - AAA they said sedan and SUV production ready concepts will be revealed at pebble beach. Go back and read the article. Like I said they’re already caught the next gen MDX testing with the new RDX interior. They’re not going to have cars already testing on the road if the car doesn’t come out until 2022. They’re not going to be this far into development but the car won’t come out until until 3 more years lol. It’s going to be revealed later this year or early 2020. Which is what I said in my original comment.

[@MidnightAspec]

The new TLX and MDX will come to market during 2020.

[@AFCompany]

F23A4 Accord Actually the TLX type-s with new interior is getting revealed at the NY auto show in April and will be for sale later this year. There are indeed spy shots of the MDX type-s with the RDX infotainment but there has not been any talk about when it will be revealed, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it is also released this year. The RLX which is supposedly going to closely match the concept car is getting shown in Pebble Beach and most likely won’t be for sale until 2020. The point is Acura is on its way back to its precision crafted performance which is good news.

[@ELPJM09]

I don’t consider Acura a luxury car. They look bland and cheap. Lexus has sharper and modern designs. They look luxurious and are more reliable with better resale value.

[@aquamoon3952]

It is a luxury car no matter what you consider it to be

[@ELPJM09]

It’s not. Lexus competes BMW and Mercedes. Acura completes with Genesis and the Kia K900.

[@ideaynojodas]

Hating on Toyota/Lexus again!!! Ok. 😒

[@Littleathquakes]

ideaynojodas cuz they’re ugly

[@gayanekarapetyan8581]

Littleathquakes ? What do you mean “there ugly “? Mercedes and bmw are more of a ugly car look at the Ls Lexus lx, gx, es, etc. you’ll regret saying that. Then look at Mercedes glb or whatever and bmw . Thank me later

[@HaywoodHomestead]

Littleathquakes ur mom is ugly

[@infidel24]

Except the rx L isn't a long wheelbase version. It's the same wheelbase across the board.
