Performance

Let’s start at the heart of the 2017 Acura MDX: the engine. Under the hood is a 3.5L engine that produces up to 290 hp and 267 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission with Sequential SportShift paddle shifters, the result is a ride that is as gentle and subtle as it is muscular and strong.

AWD and FWD Benefits

The 2017 Acura MDX comes with a choice of either an AWD or FWD drivetrain. Super Handling All-Wheel drive gives the MDX a sporty and dynamic performance, as well as added control in various weather conditions. Though AWD could be preferable for tackling Wisconsin winter roads, the FWD will have a lighter feeling behind the wheel while it boosts fuel economy and comes with a lower price tag.

Towing Capacity

The power of the engine in the Acura MDX can also handle towing jobs, bringing a touch of refinement and control to tough and heavy hauling. The MDX can tow up to 5,000 pounds.

Fuel Efficiency

The MDX doesn’t sacrifice fuel economy to achieve its powerful performance and towing capacities. Both the FWD and AWD drivetrains come with an additional choice of adding an automatic stop-start feature when the vehicle is sitting idle at a stop light or other situations, which will improve fuel economy estimates. Here’s a breakdown of the fuel economy of all the drivetrain options:

  • FWD: EPA-estimated 19 city / 27 highway / 22 combined mpg*
  • FWD with Idle Stop: EPA-estimated 20 city / 27 highway / 23 combined mpg*
  • AWD: EPA-estimated 18 city / 26 highway / 21 combined mpg*
  • AWD with Idle Stop: EPA-estimated 19 city / 26 highway / 22 combined mpg*
