Just got a 2024 for a great price they are moving the left over stock. The Infotainment is an improvement but I have no issues with he trackpad I'm totally use to it an its become intuitive. I find when driving its better than reaching for a touch screen. Just my opinion.

Great review. Nice they added the touchscreen. For folks like me that hate a fingerprint ridden screen I'd have to wipe all the time, I'm fine with the TouchPad in my 24 RDX. Combined with voice commands it's simple enough to operate. Don't understand all the hate it gets really, but nice to have the touch option.

I wish Acura also adds air vent for third row.

Wow A Spec advance has everything the Type S advanced has except for the engine and suspension! Great color too. Too bad the arm rest is gone

I recently traded in my 2023 model for the new 2025 MDX A-Spec Advance. The main reason for the upgrade was the infotainment system—I really disliked the touchpad. After extensive searching at the end of 2022, I couldn’t find anything better than the MDX within my budget. Thanks for the video; I didn’t even know I had massage seats! I love my car even more now. Thanks!

The old diamond grill is better looking. The new one looks from Genesis.

As every MDX owner is saying, the AC is weak.

Suspension need some serious tuning, too much body roll and rough ride, but so not sure on the Type-S.

I wish that they didn't get rid of the touchpad completely and let the driver have both so they can choose which one they want to use.

I hate having fingerprints all over the screen.

Honestly, I’d buy a QX60 Luxe and save several thousand dollars. 😂

[danielmelendez]

pricing does not make sense when you can have a type S for a few more dollars that has a better engine and quicker transmision.

Looks beautiful for me would have been nice to have a true 7 passenger suv

[vroda]

Nothing much has changed for the better IMO, except for massage seats.
I actually prefer the TTP,
The audio system is inferior to ELS,
I hate the piano black and it is still there,

[cokoblaze]

Don't like the center console now. Just looks blah...should've kept the touchpad along with the touchscreen 🤷🏾‍♂️

I’ve noticed the 2025 Acura MDX A-Spec Advance doesn’t come with SiriusXM. I recently looked at one. I was told SiriusXM can be streamed from an app.

I’m curious to know do you think this is better SUV than the GV80? Also both brands have switched to Bang & Olufsen, but which one sounds the best?

[JayJay-hebk]

I’m buying the tlx type s as soon as they get rid of the touchpad

[eddy_azus]

I own a 2024 mdx 3 things need to be fix. 1 acceleration pedal to much vibration feed, 2 Bluetooth to slow same as my old 2017 mdx like 2 to 3 second delay, 3 tires they are super loud and have like a bump noise really weird i have driving 3 different mdx apec same noise, wat it sad is that they now but keep using does crapy tires.

still missing digital rear mirror and built in dash cam...

[kenfrankel]

Not a fan of the blk leather w red stitch. Do love the Urban Grey Pearl exterior. That said… can the mocha leather be paired with Urban Grey Pearl ?..

[SupraManG]

It's still a shame that ACURA does NOT want to include 3rd-row air vents after numerous times of sending them messages about including them into the MDX. Guess they don't care about the lil children who'll be riding back there.

70k! Exterior is looking a little too busy and not premium enough. Don’t get me wrong there are nice design elements inside and out. The extensive use of piano black plastic inside is awful for the price. The Mazda cx90/70 beats this is every aspect and is 10k cheaper!
