In this Acura MDX Review, the big draw is balance. The 2026 Acura MDX gives you three rows, sharp styling, strong V6 power, and a cabin loaded with tech, while still feeling more athletic than most SUVs this size. The standard model makes 290 horsepower, the Type S bumps that to 355, and every version uses a 10-speed automatic. It is not the plushest option in the segment, and the third row is still better for kids than adults, but if you want a luxury SUV that feels more engaging than floaty, the 2026 Acura MDX still makes a strong case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 2026 Acura MDX is the brand\u2019s best-selling SUV, known for its stylish design, three-row seating, and strong overall value. Although Audi and Volvo make more luxurious cars than the Acura, they still drive reasonably well. However, it’s still more fun to drive than a three-row SUV should be. The V-6 engines are smooth to drive and have enough power to pass and merge, but they use about the same amount of gas as other cars in their class. Although the interior looks great, the materials used aren’t as high-end as those found in European SUVs. Specifically, the third-row seats are not well-suited for adult passengers and may feel cramped. The Buick Enclave, which is roughly the same size, offers the most interior space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
