I purchased a 2023 new 3 weeks ago. My observations, starting with cons: Disappointing 360 degree camera. The camera on my 2017 Nissan Murano has better resolution. It's not horrible, just not what you'd expect from a premium brand. The font on the screen and labeling the various buttons and switchgear through this car is tiny. Now granted, I have senior citizen eyes. I noticed this as soon as I got behind the wheel, so it wasn't a deal breaker. Now the pros. Fun to drive. Very good acceleration. Loves the curves. Very comfortable seats. Both in front are 16 way adjustable. A great HUD. Wireless Apple CarPlay. Loaded with other features like heated steering wheel, heated/ventilated front seats, spare tire, wireless charging, remote start, the list goes on. What I thought would be a deal breaker for me, the touch pad interface, is easy to live with once you get the hang of it. Plus, the voice controls are very good and answering a phone call can be done from a switch on the steering wheel. The HVAC controls are hard buttons, not buried in a screen. If the camera at least matched my 6 year old Nissan's this would be a 5 star review.

I have had my RDX for 4 months now and am very happy with my purchase. I drove the BMW X3, Volvo XC60 and the Audi Q5. All the European models were at least a few thousand dollars more for the same level of equipment and yet I found myself enjoying the engaging drive more from the Acura. The track pad does require some time to master but once you do, its easy and provides a less distracting interface than a full touch screen due to muscle memory and its high placement. Overall, I have been really happy with my decision and have been getting about 25 MPG in mixed driving in Normal mode.

Just purchased a 2022 RDX Advance. Great little SUV. Very good value. Drove the Lexus RDX, NX, BMW X3, Audi Q5 and Genisis GV70. The Genisis was tempting but had reliability concerns because it was a new model and Genisis has had some overall reliability issues with some of their other models. All in all, thought the RDX was the best value. It was also very fun to drive. Have about 3K miles. No issues. Car is quite and very comfortable. For highway driving, I use comfort mode and get 28 MPG. For around town, normal mode gets me 23 or better. The sport mode is lots of fun but uses a bit more gas. I can't think of anything I dislike other than maybe the touch pad. An improvement would be touch screen, but the pad is not very difficult to learn and is for the most part intuitive. I use Android Auto so most of what I do is activated by voice commands anyway. Liked the ride of the BMW but wanted to keep this car for a long time so went with the Acura over the BMW and the Audi. Have owned several BMWs and know that they can be real money pits after 4 or 5 years. My experience with Audi has been the same. The Germans are using too many plastic parts in their cars these days. Overall, highly recommended.

New Acura RDX Advanced purchased February, 2022 now with 4000 miles; 25% highway/75% urban driving. Mileage per trip computer 26.2 mpg (all Comfort or Normal modes and non hooligan driving style). Quiet interior, good handling, adequate power without rattles, squeaks, or problems and much more comfortable seats for long distance driving than Audi. Track pad sucks but we use Apple CarPlay and voice commands for everything without issues. We came out of two Audi's (2018 Q7 Prestige and 2018 A4 Premium Plus) with desire to downsize/simplify. Looked at BMW X3 and Q5 (too small); Genesis GV70 (too new, non premium dealerships), Jeep Grand Cherokee (reliability concerns, brand new design, non premium dealerships despite premium price, crummy engines/mileage with old V6 or V8). So far we are extremely happy with our choice. Review update after nearly 3 year's ownership. I remain very impressed with our Acura compared to previously owned Audi's and BMW's. The car now has +36k miles on it; no mechanical issues whatsoever. The seats look great, remain comfortable and we've gotten used to the interior foibles. The super handling all wheel drive works well. The 10 speed automatic transmission is near invisible. We have since purchased a touch screen heavy car and frankly, I hate it. A swipe and two taps to open/close garage door with HomeLink?? A tap and swipe(s) to adjust temp? No thanks. I'll take buttons/knobs any day for HVAC, seats, and entertainment adjustments. My only complaint is average fuel economy, but it's an SUV. At least it burns regular gas.

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!

We got the 2023 RDX with Technology package in May . We really like the interior comfort and ride quality. Also shifting it into Sport mode makes it even more fun to drive! The trackpad does take a little getting used to, and should probably be updated in future models. It can be distracting using it while driving. Overall, a solid 8.5 out of 10 so far… Update December 2023: well, we’ve had the car now for about six months and overall it’s been a very comfortable as well as a high performance vehicle. The only problems have been some minor electronic glitches such as the airbag light coming on indicating some fault in the airbag system. We also noticed that the windshield wipers when placed on a higher speed, hit the side left pillar of the car. We brought these issues into the dealership however they have not been corrected as of yet. Stay tuned for more updates! Update again January 2024: All above issues have been resolved!

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.

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.

The A-Spec Advance package is stellar, giving me plenty of technology and a brilliant stereo. I really enjoy everything about this vehicle except the surround/backup cameras. They might as well be potatoes. I'm shocked that a model that's been around since 2019 wouldn't have been equipped with better cameras by now. All cameras are basically unusable on a dimly lit street and forget it if it's raining. I'm happy with the large side mirrors. I'm overall very happy with the RDX minus the camera issue.

I love everything about my new RDX A-Spec Advance. All of the features are great. I am not sure why all the complaints about the True Touch Pad. I'm not a young techy and I mastered the system in just a few days and I love it. The ride in Comfort mode is superb and in Sport mode, it moves quick. Its handles with both sportiness and luxury feel. It's a sharp looking car.....beautiful interior with extremely comfortable seating. I know, I have back issues and the seats feel awesome. I'm extremely happy with my purchase.

I leased a Liquid Carbon/Ebony RDX Aspec Advance in March 2023. The aesthetics of the Aspec combined with the features of the Advance make this vehicle a no brainer. I had a ‘22 MDX Advance but it was way too large for my needs. I flipped out of it and into the RDX. It is a perfect size for me! It is not too big and not too small. All the controls are within reach. The touchpad is easy once you practice with it a few times. I prefer it over getting fingerprints all over the screen. The safety features were also a huge selling point. The turbo has a lot of get up and go about it. The leather/suede seats are so comfortable. The ELS 3D stereo system is AMAZING! I love the sport heated steering wheel. Apple Car Play works seamlessly for me. The adaptive dampers in the Advance package really do their job. There is minimal road noise and the ride quality is top notch. There is plenty of room in the back seat and in the cargo area. The LED headlights work like a charm when it’s raining or on dark stretches of road. I have not had to even use the high beams yet. Gas mileage isn’t too terrible. I’m averaging about 20mpg with only city driving. I got into a horrible rainstorm a few weeks back and the SH-AWD kept the vehicle stable and planted. It handled like a trooper (and it takes corner’s unbelievably well). If I had to suggest improvements, it would be to make the surround camera full screen and make the cup holders larger for bigger cups. This vehicle is well-rounded and is much cheaper than it’s competitors fully loaded. This is my 4th Acura and my FAVORITE by far!

I have the 2022 RDX Aspec. I am very happy with the car. I love the exterior styling and the interior updates including the wireless charger, wireless Apple car play and android auto. My nephew likes the ability to change the colors on the ambient lighting. The car handles great and has plenty of power although I do wish it got a little better mpg. I found using the touch pad very easy to learn and have no problems with it. I do a lot of driving and find it very comfortable even for long trips. I do hope there is an ev or hybrid option in the future.

Enjoying our new RDX but shocking to me that Acura does not include a spare tire with the purchase, only an air pump. All buyers shoud be aware. Dealers do not tell you this. I live in the desert southwest, could be 100 miles from service. If you hit road debris or otherwise blow or shred the tire, with no spare you are really in trouble. I have ordered the 'donut' (an option) - over $400 and of course, they are back ordered. Come on Acura, every vehicle should have a spare tire included. Saftey and common sense.

I love my new Acura RDX. It’s stylish and classy. It is also roomy and back passengers aren’t sitting on top of each other. If I had to choose a con I would say the info pad takes some getting used to.

I bought my Acura RDX in March 2022 and I love the power in sport mode..haven't driven it much since I broke my right ankle in April but I'm starting to enjoy it now..only has 4,050miles on it..the two things that I don't like about it is: Acura should've made the A-Spec & Advance models with 335hp and better fuel efficiency..the things I like the most is the ride quality is great..the cabin is quiet and spacious..overall it's a great compact SUV for the money..

A little background first: I've been a long-time Lexus driver. (My father was a life-long Toyota man.) But over the years, it has become impossible to ignore how Lexus has lost its touch. The quality went down, but the price went up. Especially compared to my last few Lexus cars, this Acura RDX just makes sense. I can feel how all the details were thought through. The features that should be there are there, and in places that are logical. Plus, these features are available at a nicer price point than the competitors. Now I'm in the process of helping my wife switch from Lexus to Acura, too.

The car is stylish on the outside, but the electrical and mechanical systems are unreliable. Too many software glitches in the dash each time I drive. The worst is the limp mode issue that happens when you accelerate. When accelerating, the car sometimes looses power and goes "limp". This happened to us at less than 1000 miles on the car. We were trying to accelerate onto the highway when the car suddenly lost all power and coasted down to 30 mph before we were able to safely exit. I would not buy this. About as reliable as a Pinto.

First - it rattles. A car this expensive should not have rattles in the dash. Drives me nuts. Second - the technology is slow. It takes forever to boot up. Third - the nav system is a joke. I constantly get "finding new route" . I quit using it and just use my phone on apple play. Last - the touchpad is difficult to use. On the positive side, it's comfortable and the ride is decent. I have 14,000 miles on it and am looking to get rid of it and get something else.

The 2022 Acura RDX is a significant improvement over the previous one. Gets better gas mileage, runs on mid-grade gas, the electronics are somewhat easier to learn, and is nice looking. UPDATE: It is a very nice car but he technology, such as the navigation system, radio, an cell phone connections are difficult to use.

For this price point the car is desperately lacking. No automatic windshield wipers. No parking assist even though the sales person told us it did have it. No automatic breaking at low speed only higher speed. Brakes moan loudly after 3 months, service department states its due to nature of the stiffer FNC rotors. No one wants to hear noises or have their passengers hear noises when they are braking. A major defect in the brake design. Buyers remorse and can't wait to trade it in. Other reviews on google state the same issue, wish I had read those.

The sleek exterior look of the RDX is what brought me to Acura from Toyota. I was aware that I was going to change gas from 87 to 91+, but the mpg is a joke on the awd RDX. I’m on the interstate 90% of the time and no matter what mode I’m in, my mpg never tops 22. All other aspects of the vehicle are good. I don’t suggest McGrath in downtown Chicago for sales or service - go to Advantage Acura in Naperville instead.

We got a brand new Acura RDX Aspec in April 2023. Before that we drove an Audi Q5 that we had for 10 years but it started consuming oil and we were also disappointed about it rusting. The Acura seemed great price for everything that was included and we absolutely liked the looks,size and drive. We have to cover 2 miles of gravel road to get home and thats where the problem arose… Every time going to town there was gravel stuck in between the brake pads and the steel ,,dust pan’’ behind it , causing high pitched sqeaking and sqeeling. This dust pan is mounted to close to the brake pads and pieces of gravel get caught in there and won’t release until they’re worn off enough tocome loose. We endured the situation for 3 months and after the dealership didn’t come up with a solution we decided to bite the bullet and trade it in for a different brand. Another thing we noticed is that there’s a lotta road noise coming through the bottom of the car. Don’t get me wrong it is a great car but don’t buy it when you have to cover gravel roads on a regular base. It really is a design flaw imho. We now drive a new Mercedes GLC 300 and no gravel problems at all. Pricy mistake.. I hope my fellow farmers and country men/women read this and learn from it instead of peeing on the electric fence😊

My wife and I purchased a 2022 Acura RDX with the Advance package.Took some getting use to the touch pad controller and still having problems. It is hard to navigate especially changing the radio stations while trying to drive. I recommend turning off the Auto Engine Idle stop each time you get into the vehicle when driving because I get tired of the engine shutting off everytime I came to a stop. Also recommend using cruise control less as possible or turning the low speed following distance to minimum on the Adaptive Cruise Control Low Speed Follow which comes on by default when ever you use the cruise control, hate it to can not be turned off. These two features are marketed as safety features but I believe they create a safety hazard as well. This is a great car but wish I could have gotten a bigger power train but there are no options.The wife loves.

Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS)

I HATE the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS). I’ve had problems with it braking when it shouldn't. It’s stops so abruptly that I get whip-lash and my seatbelt caused bruises. The cheaper Honda’s get a simple button to press to turn it off, but the expensive Acura’s do not have a button to simply press. You have to go through 4 different settings. There’s no option to keep it permanently off & it comes back on every time you start the car. In addition to the CMBS, I do not like the idle stop. Again no way to keep it permanently off. At least it has a button I can press each and every time. And why no rain sensor? My 15 year old car has zero features but has a rain sensor.

3000 mile and sunroof leaks. Been waiting a month for a replacement. I’m just going to tun it in under the Lemon Law. Apparently they have major problems with the sunroof weather stripping.

Better than MDX in driving experience!

Bought RDX over MDX and RX 350 F Sport a couple months ago. The comfort mode really changes to have the same manners as the Lexus. Only reason for 4 stars overall is because the gas mileage. However that is a great trade off for the driving experience. Drove the advance MDX but was not too thrilled. Of course it had more room. The RDX was more engaging driving wise and this trim has changed for the better in 2022. That was main reason why I ended up purchasing. Otherwise was going to wait another year or two. Have no issues with infotainment. Also the hater’s on having to wait to lock the car when closing rear hatch needs to know that all you have to do is touch rear door to lock the whole car even before fully closing. Also there is another button by handle that locks it once fully closed. Hope this helps. GREAT CAR! CORNERS BETTER THAN MOST SEDANS!

I love the sound system but trying to use the touchpad and navigating around setting up your favorites etc is impossible and time consuming. Just leased have it for 2 weeks and I am going to dump car because of the radio system.

I love my 2022 Acura RDX A Spec! My only negative is an intermittent noise it makes when backing up! People stare and will see why a seemingly new car makes such a noise! Acura says it’s a normal noise that they make! Nope had a 2019 RDX for 3 years. Never made this noise!!! So Acura, figure out what is causing this please! My car is still new with low mileage and it has made this noise since it was a month old!!

I recently purchased an Acura RDX Aspec Advance and it’s the best vehicle In owned. It’s gorgeous, quick, and just all around comfortable. Absolutely no regrets!

The charging station " DOES NOT " work for APPLE phones ! The lens on Apple phones raises the angle - so the "flat" charging station does not work ! Dead Battery !

My '22 RDX SH-AWD w/A-Spec Pkg is my 9th Acura lease in a row, simply because you Can't Beat Acura's value on a lease. Despite being hard on a vehicle, I've had no problems with any. I've had a '16, '19 and now '22 RDX. Roomy, comfortable, fun to drive, great audio. Unlike many, I like the infotainment touch pad interface. Lease will be up in '25. Wanna guess what my next will be?
High Quality SUV

We were lucky enough to find this in 4 hours in April in Atlanta. This is our second RDX, the first one being a 2016. The RDX is a VERY High Quality Machine ! The touch pad is no issue for us, I’m an engineer & my wife uses Siri To get Waze & the radio station she wants. We’ll most likely get another RDX, when the time comes.

No trailer hitch for 2022 RDX with A-spec tech

Acura currently does not have the wiring harness available to install a hitch on the 2022 RDX with A-Spec technology, and there is no date for when this will be available. An SUV that you cannot install a trailer hitch on is ludicrous and very disappointing; would not have purchased this vehicle if I had known this

Ugh, I’ve had so many issues with this vehicle since I purchased it used in 2023 with 19k miles. Infotainment is a nightmare to deal with while driving, so many rattles inside car and rear brakes inconsistently sound like a foghorn when backing up. Drivers side mirror shakes so violently at highway speeds it’s impossible to stare at for more than a second. I’ve brought car to local Acura dealer for all these issues and every time they say “cannot reproduce”, even with videos I have provided them showing above issues! I’m so done with this car, and Acura in general. Oh, and Acura customer service is a joke as they immediately push all this back to the dealer and will not step in at all.

I love the look and style. Cargo space is more than sufficient. Mechanical integrity is tops. The one issue is the screen is not touch. The pad is extremely difficult to utilize.

With almost 30,000 miles on my 2022 RDX Advance, this has been a great experience. Characteristics are; Great power, good MPG, quiet ride, trouble free, and very good dealership experience - both at time of purchase and at scheduled maintenance. This is a comfortable vehicle with SUV capacities and yet drives like a four door sports car. i never get tired of driving this car.
