@@bradleyscarreviews It's a blurred line to some degree but but those buying the MDX aren't looking for true 3rd row functionality. The MDX has 29 inches of 3rd row legroom whereas the TX has 33.

The Acura looks great and has an effective engine/trans combo, but geesh…the MPG’s are virtually the same as my wife’s F150 Platinum 3.5EB. Honda needs to fix that. That’s a deal breaker, totally negates one of the biggest arguments for getting a mid-size instead of a full-size SUV. The Mazda looks nice but it’s a little small for people who would actually use it to haul a family. The Lexus is the largest and I’d bet actually does family duty better than the others, but that 6AT is a dog. Why, Lexus? You can hear under acceleration that the gear spacing is just way too tall. It needs more and better spaced ratios.

Thank you for the video! This was a great comparison and to see what the PHEV actually does. I have considered a grand Highlander, but comparison to price point and availability. I can find a baseline CX90 for under $40k new where I’m at. I like the fact that all trim levels have AWD with a non CVT transmission standard with an optional 6cylinder or 4cylinder PHEV. In my high school years, I’ve always loved the JDM tuner scene especially the A80 Supra, NA1 NA2 NSX and the R 34 skyline. Had the experience of owning the 350z and G37. Times have changed for me now. Happily married with two kids, and in this era with all the turbo engine downsizing. That I can get a turbo charged, 3.3l, in-line 6cyl , longitudinal mounted with AWD in a 3rd row body and can get 24CITY/28HWY and I don’t have to spend over 50k to get one? So Mazda is getting my vote. Despite the detuned 3.3l only getting 7.2 seconds to 60 I can live with that. Plus it looks like there are tuning options coming available, at least one from JB4.

They had sales issues with Ford in the U.S. in the early 00’s but that doesn’t change their history and brand image. They turned it around like Volvo and Jaguar did.. Mazda prefers to appeal to a very specific audience in the premium family market, not in the economy section.

This needs to be said. The Lexus TX should not be brake boosted off the line. I remember when Redline Reviews tested the TX and the numbers and reaction time of the car was actually better when you simply stomp on the gas without the brake boosting. It’s kinda like a Tesla. Stomping on the brakes and accelerator at the same time does absolutely nothing for the car. If we’re gonna do drag races, we should run each car properly. The TX is clearly faster than the CX-90.

For that performance and the big gap price and a cx5 owner I'll take the cx90 no doubt..👍great work Sam good video..

Just traded my mdx lease for a cx90phev. Miss the smooth low end torque of the v6 but the cx90 feels much faster. Not to mention the mdx had the worst tranny I’ve ever driven. Type S is a different story obviously. Not comparable.

11:16 The guy in the Mazda says, “ That was like 1/2 a car, maybe a car, hard to tell…” Then they cut to the still of the finish line and you could fit a 747 between the two This guy is too much!

The TLX beat all its direct competitors at MotorTrend's Figure-8 hot lap, even the M340i. It's more of a handler than a drag racer

7:28 He flipped the MI-Drive switch to sport mode. That was not fair at all. Sport mode has a higher power output in the Mazda CX-90, that race was unfair.
