2021 Acura RDX Base Specs

The entry-level variant in many lineups comes across as undesirable, but that’s not the case here because the most affordable RDX doesn’t feel cheap. It still gets leatherette-trimmed seats which features 12-way power-adjustment and heating in front, along with a leather-wrapped steering wheel. An automatic dual-zone climate control system is standard, along with keyless access, adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, a multi-angle rearview camera, a nine-speaker sound system, and a power panoramic moonroof. HD Radio and SiriusXM satellite radio form part of the standard infotainment suite.
