The MDX needs to adopt a hybrid system, boost MPG to approximately 26-28, achieve 0-60 mph in around 5 seconds, and increase the screen size to 14.6 inches
I’m glad that the air suspension is not on the lower models… expensive and unreliable over time to fix and replace. As for the lack of a spare, from what I read on mdx forums type s owners are just buying the emergency tire kits from the non type s models and putting that in the back?
there's absolutely zero reason why acura can't provide a reduced size temporary spare, they're just cheaping out. for the price they're asking, it's pathetic they don't include one.

If you don't use AA or CarPlay it's quite intuitive. Since those too options aren't compatible (neither did either company help with said compatibility) TTI had to go.

Save $20k and get a CX 90. It has 95% of the performance of this (which it more than makes up for with substantially better gas mileage), nicer interior and exterior and built in Japan, rather than Ohio. The panels don't even line up on this $75k vehicle. Pathetic. My 2020 Acura rattles worse than any other car I've ever owned. Never again ... Acura will never get another cent from me.
AWD of Honda is far superior than competition if you live in snow. Get the base model Acura ....best bang for buck👌👌👌👌👌 Mazda has lost its glory & does not excel in any aspect...competition is stiff!
They should've replaced that gloss black plastic with open pore matte wood & they should've added ventilated second row seats as well as third row air vents for the third row passengers. The Pilot has third row air vents & the MDX doesn't which doesn't make sense

You don't need the same size tire for the spare..... yes you want to have the same exact size (width) for extended driving, certainly high-speed etcetera.... but in terms of getting you down the road and to a more proper replacement, it just needs to be the same overall diameter (what most laypeople think of as "height," top to bottom)... other companies have recognized and done that... lame excuse on Acura's part. You don't even need to have the same diameter wheel, as long as the brakes clear on whatever your spare wheel is. I wonder if there are still securement points under there (like the Non type S) that are just blank, where you could put a spare from the regular Non Type-S model? Edit: Comparative rubber-band 21s seem a bit much on this. Just on principle, I would put the 255-width 20s from the Advanced, Technology Etc, trims, or even 19s from the base, all around and give up 3% in the handling to get a more compliant ride running on regular (non-run flat) tires, and of course as a bonus put a spare from the regular set up in there if there are fitment points that work.
Very surprised they didn’t update it to the pilot engine, styling looks better than pre refresh, B&O is probably marginally better than the ELS (outside of Type S B&O) but it’s nice to see it’s on every trim but the base, less usable than TX but better driving
It's a really competitive segment premium/luxury three-rows. Personally, I find the gas mileage to be unacceptable for a Honda/Acura vehicle in 2025. Honda used to rule the fuel efficiency game roost and, I'll bet that this one won't even get that not so good EPA number. I like the plug in TX 550h+ and a usable third row (I'm not driving Munchkins around) and the 29mpg across the board. For me, that is the winner in three rows currently. Sure it's about $6K more than MDX type S but it seems like more for more to me. Oh, if you are planning to track your three row SUV then this might be your ride.
We have the regular V6. I’ve gotten the advertised 25 MPG on the highway one time, and it was on break-in so I was babying it. I’ve had no problem matching EPA MPG #’s in all my prior vehicles driving “normally”. If the 25 highway was achievable without babying it, though, it would be good enough for me.
I think the refresh looks amazing. Something about the font end just looks way more muscular. Unfortunatley with the arrival of the Lexus TX, GMC Acadia and Buick Enclave, the MDX is just a little too small in my opinion, people looking for accommodating third rows will gravitate towards the bigger competition.
This model is a real gas hog too. Unless you are driving like granny going to church this thing will guzzle premium fuel. Honda usually is so good on fuel economy too.
MDX type-s is not nearly spicy enough for the price. the type-s is slower than a base x5. the base mdx is unbelievably slow. the type-s pricing gets you into mid spec x5.
Overly priced for 55hp more than base!!!! Good AWD than competition. Bad on inside Space & 3rd row. Center TV sticks out of dash😂😂😂😂. Bad storage space cubby in front. $76K😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

Great review Alex! While I will wait and buy used, this vehicle ticks a lot of boxes for me. Good HP from what should be a reliable powertrain, 3rd row (we know it's for kids on 95% of the vehicles in this segment, while subjective, more aesthetically pleasing, and a bias toward driving performance. I admire the Toyota/Lexus/Kia/Hyundai variants in this segment but, IMHO they're biased to the appliance side of transportation. Cheers.
Yep, just look at their sales numbers. They're dropping off across the board. The Acura loyalists can't lean on the "supply chain issue" excuse anymore. Acura is a failing brand. They're following Infiniti to the grave. I'll buy another Honda for my kid when they're old enough to drive, but I'll never own another Acura. The money spent over a Honda isn't worth it. They're still built with little care in Ohio with terrible panel gaps and rattling interiors.
Who the heck thinks that not giving me a tire makes me wanna buy more vehicles a spare tire is a must I cannot have a vehicle that does not have a spare tire. It’s just gonna leave me stranded.
V6 is hush quiet and more linear. An Acura owner looks for different features than a Pilot owner. I've owned 3 MDXs. Test drove a Pilot and it felt cheap. Their both great SUVs but the refinements are quite different.

Because the number of speaker and total watts (and the brand name) are the way that a typical car buyer evaluates the audio systems using the Internet. To quote: "Additionally, the 2025 MDX Type S with Advance Package introduces Acura's most impressive audio system yet, an all-new 31-speaker, 1,760-watt Bang & Olufsen luxury audio system featuring 24 channels with Acoustic Lens Tweeters and 12 speakers in the headliner, elevating MDX's already class-leading audio experience." The first time you need to drop the headliner to replace a stereo component all the charm kind of evaporates.
Acura keeps saying that they are going straight to EVs and skipping hybrids. I think they’re going to regret it thanks to how the market is now. But then again the Pilot doesn’t have a hybrid option either
Have they fixed the weather mats that slide around and jam the rear hatch, and the keyless entry that fails while still under warranty and they refuse to fix, but will happily replace the fob battery for $38.

Wrong on all of them The Lexus RX and Tx are the biggest jokes in this srgment also if you care so much about mpg you shouldn’t even be shopping in this category.
TX! lol 😂 they have a stop sale 😊, I own the RX500h F sport level 3 and find it hilarious what's happening with the TX recall/ stop sale and the v6 twin turbo recall... WTF IS TOYOTA DOING!
There’s going to be a price hike due to B&O, and 30 speakers means higher probably of one or more of the speakers going bad, as opposed to say a 20 speaker system. ELS was awesome, tuned just right with enough speakers. Acura stopped innovating, (no hybrid, no RWD based architecture, pairing with GM for EV lol) unlike Lexus and Genesis. So smart consumers will look at Lexus or even Toyota (Grand Highlander) for their 3-row needs. They don’t care about B&O and 15+ way power seats and abysmal MPG due to “high performance” like some of the dumb soccer dads lol.

Why should they have kept the ELS? Acura says the new system has better accuracy, improved surround sound and better range than the ELS it replaces.
Wrong on all of them
The Lexus RX and Tx are the biggest jokes in this srgment
also if you care so much about mpg you shouldn’t even be shopping in this category.
TX! lol 😂 they have a stop sale 😊, I own the RX500h F sport level 3 and find it hilarious what's happening with the TX recall/ stop sale and the v6 twin turbo recall... WTF IS TOYOTA DOING!
@@KuyaArbee because of the airbag recall and the fact that the tx is just bad. Like really really bad
There’s going to be a price hike due to B&O, and 30 speakers means higher probably of one or more of the speakers going bad, as opposed to say a 20 speaker system. ELS was awesome, tuned just right with enough speakers. Acura stopped innovating, (no hybrid, no RWD based architecture, pairing with GM for EV lol) unlike Lexus and Genesis. So smart consumers will look at Lexus or even Toyota (Grand Highlander) for their 3-row needs. They don’t care about B&O and 15+ way power seats and abysmal MPG due to “high performance” like some of the dumb soccer dads lol.
Cars with touchpads or touchscreen are garbage. Dial based navigation is the only safe option
Do those kids - “ feel the Pea under five mattress “????
Not if you've got a mattress cover.
