Powertrain
The 2017 Acura MDX leads its class with its combination of power and fuel efficiency. Power comes from an advanced 3.5-liter direct-injected i-VTEC™ V-6 engine rated at 290 peak horsepower and 267 lb.-ft. peak torque (both SAE net). It incorporates a range of advanced friction-reducing technologies that help boost fuel efficiency and power output, and features a crossflow magnesium intake manifold, special "tumble" type intake ports, special piston-crown shapes, and an 11.5:1 compression ratio.
Acura's i-VTEC™ (intelligent Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) for the intake valves is combined with Variable Cylinder Management™ (VCM™) to widen the power band and maximize fuel efficiency. During startup, aggressive acceleration or when climbing hills, VCM operates the engine on all six cylinders. During moderate speed cruising and at low or moderate engine loads, the system operates just the front cylinder bank.
The 2017 MDX with front-wheel drive is rated at 20 mpg city/27 highway/23 combined (with Idle Stop). The 2017 MDX with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive is rated at 19 mpg city/26 highway/22 combined (with Idle Stop). The MDX also meets the stringent ULEV-125 California Air Resources Board (CARB) and EPA Tier 3/BIN 125 emissions standards.
Joining the efficient front wheel drive and Acura's acclaimed Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD™) system is a Sequential SportShift 9-speed automatic transmission with racing-inspired shift paddles, standard with both drive systems.
Body
Advanced material grades, including hot-stamped, high-strength steel and magnesium, give the MDX's body superb torsion rigidity, the foundation for its confident handling, refined ride quality, and low cabin noise, vibration and harshness (NVH). The hood and front fenders are made from lightweight aluminum, improving both handling and fuel efficiency.
Acura's next-generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) front frame structure helps the MDX target top crash-test ratings in frontal collisions. Crash safety performance is further enhanced by the MDX's one-piece hot-stamped steel door stiffener ring (comprising the A-pillar and B-pillar, roof rail and lower frame member), which helps manage collision energy in frontal offset, side impacts, and roof load management in the event of a rollover.
Chassis
Together with the rigid unibody structure, the MDX's 4-wheel independent suspension, Motion-Adaptive Electric Power Steering (EPS), Agile Handling Assist, Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA™) and 4-wheel disc brakes with ABS ensure athletic handling, a comfortable and quiet ride, and a high level of active safety performance.
Finely calibrated suspension geometry and bushings combined with the MDX's special Amplitude Reactive Dampers help provide optimize ride and handling. In addition, the Electric Power Steering tuning eases low-speed steering effort and offers solid high-speed steering feel, making the MDX easy to drive while also promoting a high degree of driver confidence.

Now, let's see you get into that 3rd row. I guess not huh?
This guy creeps me tf out
Cant believe the captain seats dont fold all the way … and i just ordered one from out of state and paid shipping.
He is presenting features as if the mankind is unaware of those. What about say this.
When you are driving! You cannot fall outside. Thanks to beautifully designed doors that keeps you safe.
I was waiting for this guy to climb into the 3rd row when he was demoing the 'walk in' button.
A tip : watch series on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Gannon Remington yup, been using Flixzone} for since november myself :)
Someone’s found out about watch time
Did he actually differentiate what's new for 2018? I stopped watching after 2 minutes. I came here for the new features not a full review.
@WillRobinson: Watch the whole thing and you'll see for yourself. It was not that bad now, was it?
Where could I get those brake pedals instead of the rubber ones
so if you put a child seat on the second row, then you can't get into the 3rd row.
Look's handsome.
The headlight washer isn’t an option in the Usa...
does it lock the doors automatically after a certain speed ?
Arafet Kanso yes you can set it up yourself .
What an ugly headlight who the fu*k design that sheet?!!
