2015 Acura MDX

Pros: Good fuel economy for the class; surprisingly sporty driving character; quiet cabin; all-wheel drive is no longer mandatory

Cons: Unexceptional comfort and space in 2nd and 3rd rows; complicated control layout; steep sticker prices on high-end models

CG Says: After the Acura MDX’s redesign for 2014, the 2015 model is unchanged. The 2015 Acura MDX drives and handles exceptionally well and boasts a quiet, refined cabin. Rear-seat room and comfort are not outstanding, and the control interface has a couple usability issues. Still, this Acura deserves a top spot on your shopping list. The top-line Advance Entertainment version is a bit pricey for what it offers, but the Base and Technology models deliver lots of safety, convenience, and luxury features at reasonable-for-the-class prices.
