Great car

The RDX excels in every area that matters to me. Responsive acceleration, roomy interior, very comfortable driver’s seat, excellent stereo in the Technology package, precise steering, smooth ride and good cargo capacity. I compared the Acura to the Audi Q5 and the Acura won on acceleration (which surprised me), roominess, and front seat comfort. I actually enjoy this car more than my previous car, an Audi A6. I would highly recommend the Acura RDX!

2023 Acura RDX AWD Aspec/Advance - 1 Year Review

Writing this review after 1-year of ownership and 10K miles of driving in the US. Overall this SUV has been exceptional the past year. I would say it is one of the best daily drivers I have ever owned. Very quick, handles like a sports car, tight steering (especially in sport mode). Cabin is quiet, great audio system, comfortable seats, great in all weather conditions including rain/snow. I love having Alexa built in. The only negatives I can think of is the gas mileage is not great. I am currently averaging 20.3 mpg with a mix of highway and city driving. The brakes are good, but could be better. Lastly, and this is a personal preference, I wish I had just gone with the black interior instead of the red. I can already notice the red starting to fade a little bit even thought the car is garaged. Some have said the red seats turn a pinkish color eventually if the car is constantly left in the sun. This is the 4th Acura in a row I have owned and definitely the best one. Very sporty and enjoyable to drive. I have had zero problems with the car so far. Hope this helps anyone considering getting one.

Have had it since March and love it. Sound system is great and comfort and style is great in the fully loaded one! Only complaint is gas mileage, which has been around 23 mpg.
RDX Aspec Advance from HELL

Ordered in Nov ‘22 and took possession Mar ‘23. RDX was in Acura shop 3 different times totaling over 30 days with oil dripping on my garage floor. Just recently oil began to drip again and recently on a trip to Tennessee my vehicle sensors went amber from green. Going to Acura dealer in Franklin TN for sensor fix. Filed LEMON notice with Acura via Florida Lemon Law guidelines. Purchased RDX in Pompano Beach FL. Acura wants to have head Acura mechanics involved with another fix. THIS SHOULDN'T BE WITH A BRAND NEW RDX WHICH I PAID OVER 60k.
Great around town but not for the highway!

I purchased an RDX after comparing it to a Mazda CX50. The packaging sold me because the technology option gave me everything that I wanted in my car. To get an upgraded stereo and voice activated navigation system I had to compare the RDX to the top of the line trim in some of the lower priced cars. I was also trying to avoid the status symbol associated with a BMW or a Mercedes. The lack of a drive shift handle is a pain and after two months the switches for park and drive are still not automatic for me. I also dislike the system that turns the car off at red lights. Finally, I was unhappy with the cost of the spare tire kit which is not standard on the car. On the positive side, the stereo is great, and the engine provides a surprising amount of power. Handling is likewise exceptional. I could call this a great car and a good value if not for the noise level on the highway. I gave up a Lincoln for this car and I also drive a Lexus. Compared to those vehicles, I feel like I am driving down the road with the windows open. Thanks to A/C, it has been a very long time since I had to do that, but without a specific location for the noise, it is just all over. I think I am hearing the tires rolling on the pavement. I tried turning up the stereo but short of headphones, nothing can dampen the noise. If you do a lot of interstate driving, this is not the car for you. I have been averaging 23.2 MPG.
