The only thing that could *possibly* alter the outcome would be a superior tire choice for the Durango over the MDX. But, at that point, it's not apples/apples I suppose. Plus, I'm sure the powerband for that turbo is set fairly high, probably mid to upper RPM band (which explains why off the line they're nearly comparable, but as soon as 2nd gear shifts the turbo really starts to produce power).

As the owner of an MDX Type S Advance, I'm surprised by the result. I did not expect it to beat the Durango. But the type S an incredibly fun car to drive, as it does everything so well, and it has plenty of luxury features as well. And in reality, both of these vehicles are plenty fast, but Im gald we have the MDX.

Good race video between the Acura MDX Type S and the Dodge Durango RT. The MDX had the advantage due to quicker shifting for the transmission. It's also a little lighter in weight, but primarily the quicker shifts was the main one. Also, as for the MDX, was it in regular drive mode or Sport mode for the races? If it was in Sport Mode, then that would be another reason it had the advantage.

Yeah also the durango was at a disadvantage since 1 they break torque it which normally on N/A vheicles makes them launch slower and it looks like they are running on regular gas which makes it a hell of alot slower as I do drive a early wk2 durango with the 5.7 hemi as on regular gas it did a 0 to 60 in 6.8 7 seconds range while the midgrade made it much faster by 0.6 seconds and I could easily tell by driving around, as also I don't if the durango was in sport mode either.

It's not as much the transmission difference, but the fact that the Accura weighs a whole lot less. The hemi's torque advantage fills the wider ratios without problem and launches the Durango harder.

Sorry Max, but your test wasn't really a fair comparison unless you have the "TOWnGO" package on the Durango. TOWnGO changes the shift ratios on the ZF transmission plus it includes all the SRT performance goodies that improve 0-60 to 5.7 seconds - equal to the MDX Type S. Without the TOWnGo package, you should only be comparing this Durango to the non-Type S MDX.

Get better radios so we can hear the guy from the other car better. The quicker shifting trani in the MDX plays into the win, But not as much as the 500lb lighter weight which is a much bigger advantage.

None of us should be surprised. The Durango weight is way higher. Also I understand why they paired these 2 cars up as far as horsepower goes. But if you are a buyer and have the Acura $, you would be shopping for the SRT 392. Price point is more equal at that trim level. And let's be honest ... If you did that video. I don't care about the transmission difference. The Acura has no shot. So again I understand why this video is made lol
