I chose the Acura 2024 RDX Advanced instead of the Lexus. I wasn’t impressed at all with the Lexus and hubby was shocked. He thought for sure I’d go for one BUT it wasn’t quiet enough on the highway for me. I saw the RDX after the Lexus and was DONE! I thought I was going to get a Volvo but the delayed acceleration was a dealbreaker. I’ve been looking for 5 years but didn’t want to settle. I also loved Genesis cars BUT the service department in my area has gotten really bad reviews and even though they make gorgeous cars I wanted a dealership that could get repairs done quickly when needed. Hubby was thrilled with my choice…I saved him a lot of money…and STILL think the Acura is the better choice!

I just picked up the 2025 Acura RDX Advance A-Spec! It's beyond amazing! I learned the touchpad quickly and it's actually really good. Super simple to use and honestly, it's better than a touch screen in this particular case. Updated front grill and body aesthetics. Better location for the wireless charger. Improved cup holders. Amazing new wheels that are really sporty. Better seats. Android Auto and Apple Car Play now works full screen. It still uses the ELS 3D 16 speaker audio system vs the new Bang Olafson in the MDX but that's OK. This ELS system sounds freaking amazing! Also, LED cabin lighting improved with LEDs in the speakers! How cool is that. I mean, this sporty SUV doesn't get enough love, I think, vs. competition. I truly love mine!! 😎👍

I see they got rid of the rear vents hot/cold wheel control. Probably because of the complaints like mine: since there is no sync between the front climate control and rear you often end up with a whild temp differences between the front and rear if you set rear for cold and forgot about it and then set the front for hot.

My thoughts from a real owner. Not just a 30 minute review. I had a 1990 Legend. It was a great car. Perfect in every way. I purchased a 2019 Performance Red RDX A Spec CPO Loved it at first The RDX turned into a POS. Display issues, Unable to change drive mode would pop up on the screen, NYC gas millage 8 to 12 driving like grandpa. On the highway the best I got was 28 to 30 MPG. The touch pad, unlike you say, is a disaster. Swaps are backwards first of all. Second, a one to one touchpad in NYC traffic is a disaster. I have been doing IT for over 40 years so for me to hate it is junk. To add my display had issues twice with unable to change drive mode ( all I did was just start up the RDX ) one on a long trip and I had to rely on my $400 phone screen not the 42 k car, to navigate. Then the dealer found no issue 2 months later a Bulletin came out and they fixed the MOSt buss connector. The car sat in the garage for about 2 to 3 weeks then it came back after just starting the car. Showed the dealer the Picture again they said pictures are not proof. I don’t know about you but a picture speaks 1000 words. They are dumb idiots. Screen was Fixed then two weeks later came back, Took to the dealer and they told me they had to ask Acura if they could fix it again. I almost dropped to the floor from that statement. I have never heard that in my life. Now Acura treated you like you purchased a Luxury car in the 90' now they treat you like you purchased a FORD from the corp down. Really sad. What I like is the Torque vectoring of the RDX but unlike the commercial let's face reality who in the hell drives a RDX like a NSX. You have to be crazy to do so. All SUVs are too high off the ground to do that safely. Also look at the fit and finish of the RDX. It's not good at all. Look under the headlights there is a big gap on both sides. Anyway avoid Acura at all costs trust me. I got lucky when the pandemic hit. They wanted to buy my car back and I sold it for a good price. That you GOD for your assistance in this. Anyway I now have a CPO 2022 RX 350 and I can tell you the Lexus RX 350 beats the RDX in every way. From the corp down to the dealership. Let's start with everything in the car just works, Port and GDI injection a plus, NYC gas mileage 16 to 18, highway 33. Pad is way better than the RDX but when I get frustrated I can always hit the screen. Nice to have both on a Luxury car. That is what you pay for. So sorry Brad Lexus and Acura are not in the same league anymore. Lexus is leagues ahead in many ways.
@NCblue956 ай бұрын
Did you test drive an MDX at least? You can't compare a RX 350 to an RDX, two different vehicle segments, The 2022+ MDX is a league of its own and I bet you it's on the same level as the RX 350 or better.
@midiman50456 ай бұрын
@@NCblue95I can compare Lexus Corp to Honda corp. Yes I did. I liked he MDX but with the engine recalls for the V6 is not good. Acura is not Acura anymore it's and over rated Honda. They treat you like and idiot from the Corp down. Also the same stupid track pad and no touch screen come on. How much is a touch screen? The MDX is not worth the price compared to the Lexus RX 350. Just the fact alone that the Rx 350 has both GDI and port fuel injection is more value to the car. The RX 350 and the MDX are not comparison Hands down the RX 350 takes it. Now please understand I loved my Acura 90 Legend and it was a great car and I wanted to love the RDX and Acura again, they did this to me not I to them. I looked at the NX before I bought the RX but no spare tire and run flats was a downer. Yes I know the RDX ASpec has no spare tire but when I got mine I got the spare tire kit included that was a plus for Acura, Lexus new NX does not have it a kit or spare. Now the MDX got better NYC city gas mileage than the RDX that how over rated the gas saving Turbo is just pure BS. I am just so amazed at my city gas mileage with I have the RX 3350 premium trim also. Also Lexus and Toyota resale value is way better than Acura or Honda. Now you can try and convince me other wise except I owned a 2019 RDX ASpec and my honest opinion and a person down the street that has the same issue with a 2022 one is not going to change my totally POS RDX. Also when you call Lexus for support you are calling Lexus not Honda like with the Acura. Yes I had to call about finding out about the remote app subscription expiration. I have 2 years of free service and 2 years of all the apps included unlike 3 months with the RDX.

Joe, another great thorough Review. Aside from subjective opinions on the looks, the only thing that i feel that Acura chinced on is the lack of including a power steering wheel adjustment ?? I've had that feature in the last 4 Infinitis and the last 2 Acura MDXs I've had (and have - a 22 MDX Advance). That feature is integral with the auto exit and Entry, working with the Seat position, mirror position, when exiting and entering the vehicle. Moreover, either I didn't catch or you didn't mention whether the RDX has Remote Start, which engages the heated steering wheel, heated rear defroster & heated mirrors, turns on the front defogger in cold weather. In Hot weather - it would engage the A/C at the preset Temp. Your comments about the TTIP system about getting used to it are fair (I have it in my 22 MDX, after 32 months, still not fond of it ), in that yiou can use the HUD & Steering wheel controls to use the InfoT. and a Shortcuts Icon on the Home screen of the pad to ease your pain. However, you failed to mention that the TTIP when engaged with AA or CP is downright Awful . It changes the quick resposniveness of the Touch Pad into a Very Slow acting Mouse pad! And when engaged with AA or CP, the Center Console USB port is the only one that can be used to Play Flash Drives, Disengages !! You can only play FD when out of AA or CP. The new 25 MDX - just announced and reviewed by you a week ago or so, has Introduced a New Touch Screen !! And that "stupid" AA / CP feature has been eliminated!! My lease comes up in August. I'm left with a few decisions : Buy my MDX with 21K miles for $38,500; Lease a new 25 MDX Advance (although I pine for a Type S - too much $$$$$ and poorer MPGs) ; or lease another vehicle altogether : a 24 RDX a Mazda CX-90 (or CX-70), or other.... I'd love to know if a new 25 RDX with the same changes made to the 25 MDX is on the horizon?

What’s going on with Acura?! Hardly any production of tlx type S, no announcement about Rdx refresh, hearing that TLX could be on chopping block?! 😩

Things are going to get very interesting!

@Raitirides any ideas about heat acura will do with the RDX? This is the Last year of its generation cycle. I think currently, the RDX is near perfect. Infotainment needs work, and a type Variant would make sense. Throw in a nice lease incentive package and you and they will continue to sell

We will have to wait and see.

I agree it should have a Type-S version. I love the RDX but I'm seriously considering the MDX (even though I don't need the room) just because of the Type-S option. We'll see if I can hold out till 2025 (Come on Accord)

This needs a serious refresh,there are too many Honda touches throughout and missed opportunity to make this more competitive.

Time for a redesign

How do you zonk the lower honeycomb grill on the rear?! I think it's a nice contrast and looks good and as opposed to what?

Just body color.

Only thing I dislike about it is is mileage. That turbo burns gas like a v8 🥲🤣🤦🏻♂️

I wish they would redesign the center console. Not really an efficient use of space
@RaitisRides6 ай бұрын
They need to redesign the whole thing!

I really like the Acura RDX. However, I plan to wait until the 2025 version becomes available without the annoying trackpad.

What do you think the price should be Brent?

Gimme dat! I'd get mine: RDX SH-AWD, A-Spec Advance, Liquid Carbon Metallic, Ebony interior, Running Boards, Roof Rails, Crossbars, films guards and mats, and add on those overpriced all black lug nuts too!
