Acura's all-new 2022 MDX is the most premium, performance-focused and technologically sophisticated SUV in Acura history.

Occupying its new position as the brand flagship, the next-generation Acura MDX moves forward with a bold exterior design coupled with a sophisticated and elegant new interior featuring the most high-tech and advanced cockpit in the brand's 35-year history.

The fourth-generation MDX features a bold and upright face, intricately sculpted grille and hood, and a wide, aggressive stance. It sits on a 2.8-inch longer wheelbase, with a stance that's 1.4 inches wider in the front and rear.

The all-new light truck platform underpinning the 2022 MDX targets the driving dynamics of a sport sedan. MDX sports its first-ever double-wishbone front suspension, combined with an all-new multilink rear suspension for precise road holding while maintaining the smooth ride that is a key MDX highlight. The new platform also features improved body rigidity, paying dividends in ride comfort and handling.

Befitting its flagship status, the 2022 Acura MDX delivers the most premium cabin Acura has ever designed. The clean, horizontal design theme imparts a strong structural feel, softened with the use of high-grade authentic materials such as open-pore wood, brushed aluminum and soft-touch Milano leather.

The 2022 Acura MDX debuts with an advanced 3.5-liter i-VTEC V6 engine rated at 290 horsepower and 267 lb.-ft. torque. For the first time, the 2022 MDX applies an Active Shutter Grille. In certain conditions, shutters in the lower grille close to divert air around the vehicle, thereby reducing aerodynamic drag. When the demand for cooling air increases, the shutters reopen. Also for the first time, the MDX V6 is paired with Acura's 10-speed automatic transmission with Sequential SportShift and paddle shifters.
