 The Acura MDX demonstrates that luxury, performance and SUV functionality can all exist within an environmentally friendly package.
The MDX's meets stringent ULEV-2 emission levels in all 50 states while delivering 260 horsepower from its high output VTEC V-6 engine and advanced Variable Torque Management (VTM-4) electronic 4-wheel-drive system, seating for seven and an EPA fuel economy rating of 17 mpg city and 23 mpg highway.
It achieves top of its class environmental performance without sacrificing the power or capability needed for SUV activities such as towing, going off-road or driving in extreme weather conditions.
