PERFORMANCE
The new MDX reaches new heights with its performance. It has a 3.0-liter turbo V-6 that cranks out a massive 355hp, 354lb.-ft of torque. All of this is perfectly balanced on a set of 21” wheels! A 10-speed automatic transmission ensures incredible drivability, high performance, and some really high adrenaline. This offers a much wider gear ratio range and unbelievably smooth gear shifts when compared to the earlier 9-speed transmission.
The best part is you get all this power at respectable average fuel consumption of 11.2 L/100km making this SUV among the more fuel-efficient in the market.
Engineered for effortless acceleration and responsive agility, the MDX comes equipped with 4th generation Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™ (SH-AWD®) and track-inspired torque-vectoring technology. Plus, a new light-duty truck platform with double wishbone front suspension and multi-link rear suspension for improved handling and ride quality.
With four unique driving modes to choose from, you’re prepared for the road ahead. An additional Individual Mode lets you make it your own. Choose throttle response, steering, shifting and engine sound settings, so you can drive it the way you like it.
