Not really an upgrade from Mazda CX-5 Turbo
I lost my old 2021 CX-5 GT-Reserve during an accident, after I test drive Lexus NX350(where did all the space gone?), audi q5(80% people lease, and trim with vent seat too expensive to lease so dealer don't carry them), bmw x3(........uuuuuuugggggglllllllyyyyyy), Acura RDX was ok.... feel very same as my old car, with little bit better suspensive, so after a week driving it.... 1. infortament system is way worse than Mazda, touch pad bad, answer call button confusing(on AA screen, answer is at left, hang up is right, but on car, push wheel to left is hang up, push right is answer.....). On mazda, 2 buttons... easy simple and no confusing. 2. The Cargo cover was ....... not smart.... my Old CX-5 has the retractable cover and hook directly to the trunk door, so when you open truck, it automatically life the cargo cover..... come on.... on the RDX, I have to manually retract it every time otherwise I can't see what I have in it.... 3. Manual shift is joke, 10 gears.... 9 for forward.... you never find good gear manually.... Mazda have 6 speed, 5 forward.... old school and works great. 4. Brake hold and hand brake are on the left hand side, gear shift is on right hand side... Keep forgetting to turn it on. Mazda's buttons is all next to the shifter, you shift and push buttons right next to each other...... 5. Mazda have a constant ON ciger power in the center console, which is perfect for DashCam parking mode..... RDX only have 1, and it's off when car is off...... 6. Storage is joke, no place to put stuffs.... bottom one is 'wireless charger' which so hard to put phone there, don't even think about using it while you driving, u need go down so much to reach it and you may crash the car, upper center console storage is so small..... Mazda have very traditional style, not big but everything easy to grab and charge all at same place. 7, RDX have NO place for phone mount, even the air vent shape weird, Mazda have so many places you can mount phones, they even have one that hook on top of hazard warning button and you can mount phone on top of hazard button and still accessable to the button!!!! much much much easier. RDX have big glass roof, better suspension for ride...... everything else....... not that much better compare to CX-5. In conclusion, Mazda designed their cars with driver in mind, whatever they have, much be easy for driver to access and to use!!! Acura..... fancy design but so confusing to use, they design for show, not for driver to use. Even the horse power, 272 HP but slower than CX-5 240 something because transmission and low torque.

rethink another vehicle
traded in 2014 and got a new rdx - should never have done it - 85% highway driving and only 19.6 mpg after having it serviced already as it was 18.9 aaid “nothing is wrong” and made me feel stupid BuT my 2014 got 25-26 mpg so it’s the same damn vehicle and nothing about my driving has changed
