Did a ton of research in this segment of CSUV and it came down to test driving both the Volvo XC60 T6 and RDX. Went with RDX Advance. More bang for buck. Volvo cost $10K more with same features except Volvo has massage chair. I don't need that. Great driving car and don't worry about the trackpad. To me it works great.

That's a dashboard and center panel that will surely stir some comments. Makes me thing about the overly loaded exterior of the Civic R. Those vents are a bit weird and some lines could have been more straight. Personalty I don't like to have to click on a button to change the cabin fan speed or the cabin temperature, knob buttons are much easier to use. Maybe it will grow attractive with time. The cluster gauges are pretty interesting thought. On the exterior side, I'm a little less impressed. The changes are rather minor and I'm not sure the 'chunky' look suits well a luxury entry level small SUV. BUT, you get that Honda driving feeling from what I understand, so thumbs up to Honda for making again a fun car to drive. While there, I have to say a panoramic sunroof is not a big deal unless you have kids: the driver and front passenger never really come to enjoy a panoramic sunroof.

Interesting point. When one gets a new vehicle there are often one or two features that are initially annoying but a driver gets used to them. In this case, I think the annoyance (at least for me) would last for quite awhile when I have to look at the silly knob every single time I drive the car.

I've owned four Hondas, currently driving my second Acura and the new RDX will likely be my next car. That said, this vlog felt far more like a commercial than a review. While a follower of the manufacturer, I've said since 1984 when Honda rolled out its first four speed automatic transmission, reframe from purchasing a car the first year a new model or a model overhaul is released, for there's always bugs and Acura/Honda usually greatly improves the car by the third year of production.

Bringing your wife in on this one was a good idea because she is the target market. Most drivers are Moms with kids. Its a half decent vehicle with average reliability, not great no bad . It pretty well falls right into its segment and the BMW X3 is its direct competitor, ( X1 is not quite same class) BMW stands for Break My Wallet and although owner satisfaction is high reliability is very low. Most vehicles in this segment score about the same though to be fair ( if you want and ugly as hell vehicle but very reliable get a Forester ) so it boils down to if you like it and pricing .

I’m waiting for the MDX Redesign. If it is anything like the RDX redesign it should be great. There are rumors about a twin turbo 3.0 option. I hope that they do modify the center console though so the middle button isn’t so prominent. That said the MDX will have some competition since Hyundai is supposed to be finally putting out it’s Genesis SUV. As far as leasing. I have never leased......why.....because I want to have something to trade in or sell when it’s paid for and also because I average between 18-20000 miles per year and tend to keep cars no more than 4-6 years. Most if not all of the so called cheaper BMW and Mercedes leases are for 10-12000 miles per year.

Hey if only the interior ergonomics were better , and that center consol has look of Panasonic 200usd boom box plasticky too flashy typical Honda too busy and awkward design that leads to series of ergonomy problems. Engine could rather have more torque and less HP for more everyday perdormamce (CX5?) down low with no need to rev it. 10 speed is way too many , car starts to search for gears ....6 to 8 speed is a fine balance . I like AWD bias to RWD , good choice in tuning there. Good handling is a plus . I wish it looked little classier , specially rear that has generic appearance.

Zack, would you recommend the Elite/advanced package vs ASPEC? Can you comment if the dampeners and added luxury are worth it?

I suggest you try them both to see if you can notice a difference. There have been many months between getting a chance to drive the one with the active dampers and this one. I think the aA-spec, with the bigger Wheels might just be enough of a difference over getting active suspension

The SH AWD uses the brakes? I've always tought it was an ecm that command a planetary gear set to apply more torque on the outside wheel when there's enough throttle apply. The torque vectoring system may uses the brakes for the front wheels. So it's more of a VSA for the front? I did road test it on a back road, I have not feel any brake application in the turns in sport+

Agree about the safety issue. Cars quite easily roll over especially in highway accidents (just check the russian dashcams), and I don't see how a shattered glass roof will help the passengers while the car is rolling: the bits of laminated glass can easily cut the skin, imagine how many of these will fly inside the car. Not to mention objects (stones, soil) can get inside the car while the car is rolling. Same if the car is t-boned, the shattered glass will fall onto the passengers heads, kids and toddlers included. In real life, only the rear passengers (so none, unless you have kids) enjoy a panoramic sunroof.

@@rickfrank7934 (sigh)... Look, a certain level of risk is involved in driving, whatever the vehicle and whatever a vehicle's specific configuration. The issue is how much increased risk is involved in a vehicle with a sunroof or even larger moonroof. Consider the following... () When CUV's/SUV's first became popular in the 1980's and 1990's, rollover risk was a significant danger. In the years since, however, rollover risk has been significantly reduced in all vehicles and CUV's/SUV's are currently about as likely to rollover as sedans in the event of an accident. Pickup trucks are far more likely to rollover than any other design. And heavy vehicles are less likely to rollover than lighter vehicles More importantly in this case is that vehicles with sunroofs/moonroofs are no more likely to rollover than comparable vehicles with solid roofs. Want to reduce the risk of a rollover? Avoid pickup trucks, buy the heaviest vehicle you can find, and maintain and replace your tires since blowouts are a much greater risk than any other factor. Compared to each of those factors, a sunroof/moonroof doesn't even count. () But what about cases where an accident does occur? Are sunroofs/moonroofs a significant danger when they "shatter?" First, the claim that "laminated glass can easily cut the skin" is simply bogus. The purpose of laminated glass (with a plastic inner liner) is to PREVENT showering passengers "with bits" of glass. That's why they're required in windshields. And that's also why manufacturers increasingly use laminated rather than tempered glass in sunroofs/moonroofs. Second, in a rollover a much greater danger than a shattered sunroof/moonroof is a solid steel roof that crushes a passenger. And no, the overall structural rigidity of a roof has not been found to be reduced significantly by a sunroof/moonroof. But doesn't a passenger risk being ejected through a shattered sunroof/moonroof? Not compared to the risk of being ejected through a window of any car. That's one reason that side curtain airbags have been added to vehicles and safety experts recommend driving with windows closed. There have been a tiny number of complaints in which crash victims have claimed they were ejected through a sunroof/moonroof. But in the one case where Ford was sued based on the issue, the claim was denied in part because the jury believed injury could have been prevented by wearing a seat belt. As far as I know, there were no other cases of a successful (or even unsuccessful) suits. () But what about spontaneously "exploding" or "shattering" sunroofs/moonroofs other than in an accident? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA) has tracked all sorts of safety issues since the 1970's, including these reports. And in the case of some manufacturers (most notably KIA and Hyundai) they continue to do so. The NHTSA isn't a perfect source of data, but it's far more reliable than "russian dashcams" and unsubstantiated youtube claims. So what's the risk? NHSTA has received about 500 complaints about spontaneously exploding or shattering sunroofs/moonroofs since 1995 with a steep increase in 2014 (187 reports) and a substantial drop since then (50 or so reports in 2017.) Notably, there are NO reports of serious injury associated with any of those reports according to a study of those reports by Consumer Reports (hardly a stout defender of manufacturers' safety records.) The NHTSA data is probably an underestimate of the true incidence of a problem. But even assuming only, say, ten percent of all incidents are reported to NHSTA, just how risky is a sunroof/moonroof installed in literally millions and millions of vehicles over a 22 year period? The arithmetic is left as an exercise for the reader. () The bottom line is that human beings are notoriously bad at estimating risk. Sensational reports about "unintended acceleration," and "exploding" sunroofs/moonroofs, grisly videos of rollover accidents,(and for that matter crimes committed by undocumented immigrants) fuel fears far out of proportion to actual risk. And in the interest of fairness, here's a link to one of the Consumer Reports articles that takes a different perspective. Though it doesn't contradict the points made above. www.consumerreports.org/car-safety/exploding-sunroofs-danger-overhead/

kingdarius5252 have you driven one? Drive an RLX. Drives better than most Mercedes and equal to the rest. Most of their cars drive more sporty with more responsive steering than Mercedes. Mercedes is just a step above in luxury. And until recently Acura’s interior materials were no different than that of a BMW or Audi, the styling was just different. But all three brands have and are updating their interiors. To me Mercedes will always have the most luxurious interior of the Germans and Japanese. But In terms of driving dynamics and smoothness Acura is definitely not an Olive Garden luxury car Hahahaha.
