    I just got a 2024 RDX A-Spec Advance. It's a blast to drive. I test drove an MDX and it just felt too large and ominous for general commuting and navigating tight parking lots etc. I almost let the touchpad deter me but I am getting familiar with it and it's becoming more second nature. I love how sporty it is. Seats are super comfy and it's quieter than my former 2020 Subaru Outback Limited.

    Great review! I just purchased a 24 A-Spec Advance in Majestic Black about a month ago. Really enjoying it so far. Definitely has some nice features and enjoyable to drive. True Touchpad is easy to get used to, but I primarily use voice commands for navigation and choosing a playlist, so no big deal imo.

    Love Acura and my current 2023 TLX, but after the latest sales report they need to standardize touchscreens as soon as yesterday, make Type S with more performance, and have hybrid options across the lineup to stay relevant.

    Great review. I currently have a TLX and am contemplating an RDX for my next car. It feels like it has the sportiness of the TLX in an SUV form. I wish they would bring a hybrid to the line, but Acura went all in on EV. I also wish it had the digital dash that came to the TLX this year. But that's a really minor quibble.

      @Drive_Culture  5 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for the comment! Going for the Advance package, RDX would gain 360 surround view camera, head up display, adaptive suspension & more. It’s the next step up, but you would lose some of the sporty design unless you went for the A-Spec with Advance (top trim)!

    I always liked the RDX, but it would be nice to see a new gen with touchscreen, a type S AND hybrid versions.. Acura had a great hybrid set up in the RLX and old MDX and stopped selling them just as hybrid sales picked up. Toyota/Lexus can't keep their hybrids on the lots ... why is honda/acura not keeping up?
