If you want reliability, value and performance get an Acura MDX Type S. If you want a BMW, more than likely it's because you're a fan girl. My mom is getting a 2025 X5, however she is leasing it. She has always liked BMW but even she knows they are not reliable.

@@uocana1 I respectfully disagree however I can see why you say what you say, the Acura MDX and MDX Type-S are fantastic luxury SUVs but mediocre performance SUVs. Also the standard MDX is more worth it than the Type-S as the Type-S is less reliable and has low-profile tires that go flat easily on bad roads. Also regarding the X5 they are reliable as long as you get the 40i and it doesn’t have air suspension (less reliable than a non Type-S MDX tho). I love my mom’s 2023 MDX Advance (had it for 2 years and hopefully we can keep it another 10) but I’m really excited for my dad to get a fully loaded 2025 X5 40i M Sport later this year (we want to downsize our 2018 QX60). Hopefully we can pay off our X5 in the 1st 12-24 months of ownership than keep it another 5-7 years on top of that. Also keep in mind the X5 will get much better MPG and much better performance than ANY MDX. If your mom is leasing a X5, tell her to opt for the plug-in hybrid (50e). It’s a less reliable car but much better on gas and has more performance. The cost difference between leasing the 2 isn’t much either.

I have a 22 MDX Advance (Non Type S , although I have pined for one!). When I leased mine in August 2021, the Type S was not out yet; If it was, and I drove it, I would have probably went that route. But premium gas was about $3.49 a gallon up from $2.99 or so at the beginning of the year (reasons for same not for this Forum). Now at well over $4.50 a gallon for Premium , the lower MPGs in the Acura is a considertion - for me as a 72 YO retiree. Acura was remiss in NOT continuing to produce a redesigned MDX with the 2018-2020 Sport Hybrid Model! That model sued the same 3.0L V-6 , with a electric Hybrid system which prioduced over 300 HP / and about 325 pounds of torque with 15-20% better MPGs. More HP and Torque better MPGs for anout $1800 premium on the price. Bingo - that would have been a Home Run !! Add some of the features of the Type S and then they would have a Grand Slam!. The new ZDX will be a faliure similar to all the new EV entries by the non Tesla competitors. I don't need to add Battery Anxiety to my psyche list!

I do wish Acura brought back the sport hybrid trim level though. My mom has a 2023 MDX Advance and it’s incredible but I think I would like it more if it was hybrid. For those folks who want SUVs with performance, they should ignore the Japanese and go German. We’re currently in the market for another luxury SUV (2-row one) and the next car will be a 2025 BMW X5 40i M Sport with all the options (planning to get it later this year).

This is why people like you cannot and are not taken seriously. Nissan has not made a reliable car since the early 00s. So when comparing Acura with BMW, the BMW wins. Heck BMW is ranked higher than Acura by CR and JD Powers. BMW has been having DECADES of reliability. Since the 80s BMWs have been reliably. They had a rough patch in the Late to mid 00, but even since they course corrected. The engines which gave them issues were the N54/N63/N20, none of which have been in production for a long time. N63TU2 has been reliable, the N55 and B58 even better. But you do not care about actual data and only your feelings.

Mdx vs x7 since both are 3 rows
@CarGeek3603 ай бұрын
Idk about that comparison, I’ve been in both and the X7 is def nicer but the MDX shockingly has more space, I’d say the X7 is a Range Rover competitor, a X7 buyer will be very different from a MDX buyer tbh
@AgonxOC3 ай бұрын
I think from the pricing point these two are a fair comparison, but the X5 would have been better. Again not a lot of people are using the MDX third row in reality. I like the looks of the MDX, but I take the X5 over it (I own a G05 X5, which has been extremely reliable. The car is five years old now). The X5 is a joy to drive, mine even has massaging seats, so the sticker is a few thousands above the MDX, but well worth it. The X5 is cheaper than the X6, so a well optioned X5 will be a tad below 80K, just like this MDX.

@@AgonxOC my mom owns a 2023 MDX Advance and my dad is getting a fully loaded 2025 X5 40i M Sport later this year, and I will agree/disagree with some of your points. The main thing that separates the two is the MDX obviously having more space (and yes the 3rd row is useable). The MDX actually has more space than the BMW X7 and is on par with the Mercedes GLS. Also, the MDX has an edge on comfort over the X5 although both are very comfortable. In addition, the X5 doesn’t have a nicer interior than the MDX although it does have better tech than our Acura. The X5 is def worth every penny over the MDX though as the X5 comes from the more prestigious brand and it will DESTROY the MDX from a performance standpoint (+ the X5 gets superior MPG). Also don’t even try to bring the MDX Type-S into the equation bc it still can’t perform (although being a fantastic luxury SUV), has low-profile tires that go flat easily on bad roads, and is less reliable than the standard MDX and even the X5 (given that the X5 doesn’t have air suspension). Both our MDX and X5 we’re getting are fantastic vehicles and I’d highly recommend them both! I like our MDX because of the space it has to offer but that aside I will agree that the X5 is the superior car (hence why it’s more expensive)

I wouldn’t compare Acura with BMW in general, BMW will destroy Acura from a performance standpoint, even the MDX Type-S lacks performance, honestly for the MDX I think the regular one is more worth it as it’s more reliable, cheaper, and you don’t have to worry about low-profile tires that go flat easily on bad roads, leave performance to the Germans
