I bought this acura elite 2017 few days back and this looks amazing, its technology sensors are amazing, I really liked the sound quality. even my wife loved it, amazing parking, acceleration is too good. seriously I couldn't find anything which didn't amazed me. I also own honda accord. they last long and also got the cheapest insurance on this than other similar vehicles.

Thank for the nice walk around. My 2016 TSX is in the shop with a $5000.repair price tag, so they loaned me a 2017 RDX. I"m thinking about buying one and your video was a great help to understand what was under my thumb.

Regarding your comment about the panoramic moonroof, if they did that, it'll eat into the rear headroom space in the rear. If they want to retain that room, they'll have to raise the roof. That'll require more re-engineering, and down goes a rabbit hole. For me, I rather have no moonroof. I rarely use it, save weight, and improves the handling a bit without that over hanging weight.

Do those running boards decrease the ground clearance? Or the breakover angle? Seems like an unnecessary feature on a crossover that's relatively low to the ground. More form over function.

The RDX should be an upgrade from the Honda CR-V, I had to zoom out to see if this was 2017. Outside of the superior engine, the RDX seems more of a downgrade from a 2017 CR-V than something to aspire to. CR-V, better vent system with 2 USB 2.5's in the rear, interior more cloth (or leather), less plastic, more leg room. It puzzles me, just two reasons to buy the RDX, engine power, and the badge to show your friends that you're "well to do".

I like it, but I think I'll wait until the next redesign - probably 2019. I'm also waiting to see what Toyota does with the next generation 4Runner. (I know the vehicles are not very comparable - but the Toyota 4Runner, Ford Explorer, and Acura RDX are at the top of my list of SUVs. I'm also going to replace my wife's Acura TL with an Audi RS3 or Infiniti Q50 Red Sport. And I'm planning to get a fun car for weekends, too. Maybe a Mustang GT.)

The CR-V does not have a V6, the RDX its faster and better built... I would instead wait for the next Gen CR-V 2017 and see what it has to offer against the RDX, My guess is that it wont be a V6 but rather the Turbo 4 from the Civic line up.
@TechGently7 жыл бұрын
Good guess, you're right. But where would you need a more powerful engine? If you're driving on the freeway, the only concern you should have is getting 0 to 65 (in California more like 80mph), achievable by both cars. Better built? CR-V just won 2017 SUV of the year by AutoGuide, and Consumer reports rates it a best buy.

I saw one of these on the road the other day, in profile, with a similar exterior options package. I thought "wow, someone is really trying too hard to make their Subaru XV Cross trek look cool". Then I got up next to it, and saw the Acura logo, and laughed. I went home and looked it up, saw the price, and laughed even harder. I'm not sure what Acura was thinking with the styling on this exterior options package. It makes the car look cheap, IMHO.
