[@Combat556]

I had a 2024 MDX SH-AWD (non S Type ) as a loaner from the dealership recently. My thoughts: excellent handling for a full size three row, very comfortable seats, and quiet inside. Good all around visibility. The push button shift setup takes some getting used to. The touch pad is finicky and frustrating. The black piano finish interior trim is a finger print magnet. The engine performance was good, but gas mileage was not…19.5 mpg highway. The adaptive cruise control system was easy to use and worked well. I returned the loaner to the dealership, picked up our 2018 Acura RDX, and sold it. Bought a 2024 Toyota Venza Hybrid Limited. 40 mpg vs. 19.5 mpg.

Other than that, yea, infotainment is a bit annoying but manageable, the car is ultra refined, and the drive train, while more than quick enough isn’t the most fun thing (other than having fun with the SH-AWD, which is outstanding).

Everybody talks about how fantastic the BMW engines perform along with their efficiency etc. However, whilst it's a very commendable achievement by BMW engineers, we mustn't lose sight of their less than average long-term reliability, robustness & customer service. High ownership costs are another major issue. Acura may not have cutting edge drivetrains, but they'll probably way outlast most BMW stuff! 😉

I just bought a 2023 MDX Type S Advance in the Apex Blue Pearl and I absolutely love this thing. I agree with everything said in the review EXCEPT I love the infotainment pad its great no finger prints on screenn its further back good visibility. The onething I think they failed is the exhaust is too quiet, trans tuning and mpg should be better.

[@LJ-wo1wf]

I've lived with an aftermarket exhaust in a Civic, and I've grown to appreciate quieter factory exhausts with fake engine noises added for Sport modes. I don't want to annoy my neighbors (and wife) with loud exhausts anymore, and I get to hear the revs when needed. I still have the option to buy a louder catback, of course; but if the stock exhaust was already loud, it's nigh impossible to find a quieter aftermarket replacement that isn't worse-performing than stock.

[@s.patterson5698]

Totally LOVE my MDX. Have it for 6 months now and no complaints. I knew the gas mileage was crap going in, so that's not a complaint for me. I am also all about physical buttons. I have another vehicle with touch screens and it's more distracting for me to adjust temperature, channels etc. Also, the elephant in the room for most people is the touchpad. Let me put it this way, if Acura had made it ALSO a touchscreen, I would STILL be using the touchpad 80% of the time. Seriously, it is that good, that ergonimically perfect, and as I always say, I feel like James T. Kirk on the bridge of the Enterprise slouching in my chair and working that control. It feels so natural. From a business standpoint, Acura would be smart to also make it a touchscreen for those who can't make the mental transition that touchscreen ability does3always equate to most practical. One thing I did which I have not seen on any other MDX in my area is add the body side moldings and the tailgate Molding. The MDX is already a good looking vehicle, a clean line masculine sportiness coupled with a premium look. The body side molding, for me at least, just gives it that nudge towards a more luxury appearance without the gaudy appearance that some SUVs have in an attempt to make them look luxurious. The MDX is just quite classic chiseled sophistication.

I like the cup holder placement better in the MDX. I had no charging pad. Compared to the one buried in the front of the X5 cup holders, I like the placement of the charging pad better in the MDX. Great vehicle!

[@jakr1880]

As an owner of a 22 type s advance, I have to 100% agree with this assessment. It definitely has some flaws, but at the price point ( having owned more expensive performance and luxury SUVs currently and in the past) it pretty much nails the comfort and sensation requirements. I've had the hard left turn acceleration cutoff occur, and it was scary the first time pulling onto a crowded road. I 100-percent appreciate the fair and balanced reporting on the vehicle. Especially coming from somebody who owns arguably a nicer, higher-performing car on paper state they'd buy this as a replacement. It's the goldilocks car for us.

The engine was nerfed by Honda on purpose and has potential. The tune is night and day everything that the engine lacks stock is there. It has crazy response, torque everywhere and it hold boost in the higher rev range. They just played it too safe. I'm so confident id bring you mine but im in South Florida.

K tune on the Type S v6? Sounds worth it for sure. But is there a reason why the engine is not as efficient as it should be? Seeing that other 3.0l turbo configurations can easily go 700 km while this' 500 or so, 13.5L/100km combined

[@ve2166]

Great review, when I got my MDX they had not launched the S Type yet and when I saw it I got a little FOMO. Then the more I thought about it, I wondered if it was really worth it already having the normal V6. I had a BMW X5 with the B58 before and knew performance wise it wouldn’t match, so it just didn’t make sense. To be honest though, I probably would have bought it if they had it launched when I purchased my MDX lol

[@vman1320]

Here was my solution to the power issue. I tuned my mdx type s using ktuner for stage 1. The engine is clearly robust ASF. The car has transformed tremendously. I also own a TLX type S (yes I love these cars) and used the same tune and only the m340i x-drive is quicker. For the sedans issue with suspension roll I remedied it using swift springs and the car defies physics, no exaggeration. Next I upgraded the Android auto to wireless using a 80 dollar Motorola dongle and it works flawlessly. Simple upgrades costing $1200 bucks brings both these cars as close to a complete package regarding driving dynamics.

The biggest issue with Acura and the "Type-s" trims, Acura themselves hype these thing to be something they clearly aren't. The precision crafted performance.. less talk, more drive.. Beat that.. Consumers are paying that additional cost for a performance trim that is clearly not a performance trim and terrible fuel economy. Not directly Acura's fault, but their dealerships are also marking these up, pricing them well over the competition. Prime example, the Integra type-s the average ADM is 25K. Seen one as high as 82K and a TLX-S PMC edition brushing nearly 100K. Acura is a small brand, selling only 4 models. They are no longer a value brand, certainly not with those ADM's prices.

I think this is the perfect use case long term review. My mom traveled 100 miles each way 1-2 times a week to the site as a lead design planner, always lugging around furniture samples. She put over 300,000 miles on her 2008 MDX before promptly retiring and buying a Macan GTS, though now she complains that the engine is slow to respond and the dual clutch has bad programming. No matter what a manufacturer does, a V6 SUV is always going to be mostly uninspiring, so you might as well get buy it from Honda Engineering. This $70,000 MDX is the best luxury SUV until you step up to a Cayenne S or BMW X5 M60, both around $95,000.

[@RoyalFizzbin]

@@RoyalFizzbin Yes. But I think it's more so the automated transmission tuning, even in sport + It's a 3.0L that weighs 4500 pounds. You have to get into boost. Driving it normally in a hilly residential area at 25-30mph is horrible to respond. It's always trying to keep the engine in at least 5th gear whereas if you were controlling it manually you would want 3rd to 4th and because its a dual clutch it can't transition well like a torque converter.

[@The_Stanman]

​@@avery4528Macan PDK is the best transmission in the segment. Its gear selection is spot on (e.g., auto downshifts on hills), it can drop several gears at once, and Sports Plus holds gears obnoxiously. Maybe try a software reset. It learns and adapts to your driving style, and maybe something got messed up there. You can find online how to do that at home. Lastly, maybe she's used excessive throttle tip-in? Honda/Acura products have that bad sometimes. She might not be used a linear throttle? Oh and hopefully she's running premium gas.

[@drhassan6892]

I have a 2022 MDX Type S, now with 17,000 miles so it is used a lot. Strengths are the cabin, audio system, fit and feel. The red interior over white exterior gets a lot of positive comments, looks super cool. The big negatives for me are the drivetrain. Lazy motor, doesn't feel much quicker than the N/A V6 (and it's isn't objectively). It does have a lot more torque so for moving around town it feels less stressed but overall, I don't think its a powerful motor by any means. The biggest let down is the transmission, it has a horrible tune - it will shift mid corner and when you accelerate it will downshift sometimes abruptly so it feels like the software needs a ton of work and really makes a premium product feel very mediocre to drive. Lastly, the depreciation has been rough, with the base Type S at 68,000 before taxes etc, the car after a year of ownership is worth 49,000 which to me seems out of place. Also, the gas mileage with daily use I fill it once a week which is similar to a V8, so from an efficiency standpoint its terrible so overall cost of ownership is an additional 240-300$ a month in gas which adds up.

[@AcuraAddicted]

How is the AC? Is it as weak as the RDX, which keeps recirculating on AUTO pretty much all the time even with mild temperatures outside?

[@alexandermaliy3515]

Totally agreed with you! At least they just should add touch ability to the screen as an driver option. Maybe not move it closer in this generation if costs much. In perfect way I agree: remove touch pad, put in that place or on the left side of the tunnel: in parallel to the driver’s right leg the charger for the phone. But not horizontal, but as a slit with slider lock to fix the different sized phones. Move cup holders forward, improve space under armrest. And finally remove shiny black plastic or add as an option for type s some aluminium texture ( like bmw x5) or kind of darkened aluminium. “Gear box might put itself into neutral” wtf?! It must be fixed, otherwise it has no right for type s badge. I pay extra money to have an ability to shoot when needed in winter or summer, it’s my business( that issue might cost too much, when gear box thinks instead of you in the winter)! I pay money for that. That is a bug that must be fixed! As for engine + suspension, also totally agree, type s must be more powerful and efficient !

Great review and car! But I wish Acura produce the same or improved Sport Hybrid trim for MDX Type S that RLX had, so it becomes more efficient and maybe even faster. In this case I 100% buy one.

[@jkiu6013]

Love the video! I get the point here but if the argument for the MDX is a value play against a 100K BMW and Mercs, I just don’t think anyone truly in the market for a new X7 or GLS is cross shopping the MDX. Acura may want you to think that to justify the 70K price tag but I personally don’t see it with that customer segment. Realistically, the competitors to the MDX is the new inline 6 Mazda CX-90, the handsome Genesis GV80, the all new Lexus RX, the max trim Grand highlander or the new base model Sequoia (starts at 60), the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, the Lincoln Aviator, and Honda’s own brand new Pilot etc. I would love to hear more of your thoughts on these comparisons to help someone with their purchase decision. Cheers.

[@jissanhuq3792]

Hi, you’re kinda wrong… lot of people think long term costs and full experience. I’m exactly that person looking for a 3 row SUV and my range is wide. Id love an x7 but long term reliability cost is the issue n not even really, just having to deal with it is the nuisance. Id want the x7 but i want a 3 row to last me more than even 5 years. I’ve had great luck with my 5 series going on 5 years but that’s just chance. Those mpg issues do concern me on mdx as we drive mostly small distances in town so we might actually bring mpg down to 16mpg versus the BMWs. You’d be surprised what people cross shop even when money isn’t the issue

This is the funniest video I’ve seen by you guys. Hats off!

[@mattsoares608]

Hoping you get into the CX90 next.

[@BassRacerx]

Yellow paint and blue interior This is my new favorite car!

[@bigcjm]

Just watched your q8 video which has me even more baffled you never mentioned the q7 given how much you liked that.

I bought a set of Tux mats for my 22 tundra after watching this vid. Excited to try them after always having had weather techs.. 👍👍

[@vjn5270]

Picking mine up on saturday! totally agree with the drive train comments. Fuel economy is not ideal and the fuel tank is a bit small - would like to see 75 -80litre tank. The engine could be a twin turbo 3.6L or something similar making 420hp. It's not enough of an upgrade power wise over the base model. Some 0-60 tests show that it's barely faster than the base mdx engine. I think they could've charged $1500 more and put a better engine in it.

[@LOUROK-SR20]

I Feel better about purchasing a 2020 MDX at a 1/3 of the price after watching this video. Nice job guys.

Mark, Jack can you please review the SQ7? Looking for 3 row ‘fun’ SUV, and after watching your X7 long-term review, worried about reliability. Have to part ways with 911 GTS. 😢 SQ8 and Cayenne not big enough for all the kids. Appreciate all y’all’s efforts and great videos. Been subscribed for awhile now.

I don't want to be like my old man... Thanks for the push I needed. Well Done.

This was the best and funniest promotion I’ve seen. 😂

[@davisjm777]

Best reviews out there period.

[@zzzzZZ011]

LOVE THE HDR

[@odysseusfellowes2582]

How about that for artistic cinematography? That segue into the break with Jack’s b58 meltdown was too great. Hard to believe this is on KZbin. Well done, men.

The random humor is insane - keep it up

Mark's thinly-veiled sponsored content rage sold me on the tux mats.

[@ibz.a]

Would love your take on this vs CX-90

[@dannyo.7119]

Had this car for about a week while my older MDX was in service. I agree with pretty much everything you guys have said especially the power train. I believe they could have bumped it up to 375 hp +380 tq and could make it more efficient as well. I think they also need to put air vents in the 3rd row. Truly don't understand why they haven't done that yet. I also had the pleasure of driving the X5 and I must admit the B58 seems to be more refined even though the ride quality between the two is pretty much the same. For value this car is better than the X7 without a doubt.

Have x5 B58 smokes this v6 As does the cost 10000 difference Got the x5 Life is too short

[@dannyo.7119]

@@MT-xl8jy the x5 is 10,000 more or less than the Type S?

[@Masterguy635]

Fully agree on the air vents in the third row. We had a 2017 MDX and now have 22' A-Spec, they still only have the vents in the floor under the second row which gives basically no air at all to the third row.

[@naveenthemachine]

But this still slaughters a Lexus RX 500h f sport performance 😂 and the RX has more power and more torque

At 4:40 I suddenly realized the real luxury feature of piano black plastic: If you leave it as it is for long enough, it can pass as carpeting. 5:08 Original savageese quote: _"I get a crash once in a while, but I get that with every car."_ 5:53 Personally I consider support from Google a dealbreaker in pretty much any device. 15:49 Original savageese quote: _"I'm gonna get right into it, when you look at this as a-hole"_

The Tuxmats ad spot was the greatest 😂

[@marcelstanford430]

Best floor mats I've ever had. Wipe 'em down once a week and after almost 3 years they still look new.

[@Kurtiscott]

I come here for the thorough and sober reviews. But I always appreciate the touches of weird. Cheers gentlemen

[@superhero2316]

I had the same “getting into neutral” issue with Honda Pilot. I think this is to prevent torque steer and make this chubby of a vehicle flick proof. Otherwise it would just topple, I don’t know if this issue goes away with any of the sports modes

[@youngbrevy]

I’d probably go with a Aspec MDX and get the exhaust modified to quad tips.

[@justo4461]

Amazing vehicle breakdown and review!

[@COMMANDandConquer199]

In what way is the Intergra Type S's 2L turbo better than the twin scroll 3L v6 turbo in this? I honestly can't understand that. It's the best engine currently available in Acura's entire lineup.

[@TuynhNguyen-r1l]

Bought the a spec mdx after watching your first mdx video

[@baldheadlogic]

Great Long Term Review Conversation.
