2020 Acura MDX Trims & Specs

The Acura MDX three-row SUV provides comfortable seating for up to seven occupants, a competitive price considering the list of standard features, and appealing V6 power from its 290-horsepower 3.5-liter six-pot engine. Front-wheel-drive is standard on most models, but every trim is available with the brand’s SH-AWD (Super-Handling All-Wheel-Drive) system. A nine-speed automatic transmission is standard.

The standard MDX gets tri-zone climate control, leather trim, power-adjustable front seats, an eight-speaker audio system, a multi-angle rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

From there, you can upgrade to several packages which build on top of each other. The first of these is the Technology package with additions such as front/rear parking sensors, navigation with 3D view, an Acura/ELS ten-speaker audio system, a blind-spot information system, rear cross-traffic monitoring, natural wood trim, and remote engine start. The Advance package includes the Technology package’s features but adds even more to the deal with standard adaptive dampers, LED fog lights, ventilated front seats, second-row captain’s chairs (reducing seating capacity to six), a heated steering wheel, and a surround-view camera system. The Entertainment package can be added over and above the Technology and Advance packages - it adds additional speakers for the sound system, a rear DVD entertainment system, and one of two VGA screens (nine-inch if coupled with the Technology pack or 16.2-inch if coupled with the Advance). Finally, the A-Spec package focuses on more eye-catching styling elements and gets exclusive bumpers, A-Spec dual oval exhaust outlets, an exclusive Apex Blue paint option, leather/Alcantara-upholstered seats, an Ebony headliner, and stainless steel sport pedals.
