I saw base model and clicked. I hate watching reviews of just the top model
"This is what you get if you spend every dollar possible!!"
Yes so true!!! Thank you Shawn!
Thank you for covering the base model - so hard to find reviews and breakdowns on this trim level ❤️
I'm very impressed by the RDX. A lot of car for the $$$. One thing that never gets talked about is the "cap-less" fuel filler. No more dealing with or losing fuel tank caps. All cars should do that.
Richard Shelton how do you lose it? There's a holder for it right on the door 😂
It doesn't looks like a base model, is full... very loaded of features. Very nice SUV.
Doesn't have the SH-AWD, though.
Thank Yo u for showing me the 2020 Base model. I take delivery on a Blue one in 2 days. Very Informative. You have made me make my decision very simple.
How have you been enjoying the RDX so far?
@@ShieldsJustice _ I love this car. The best part of this car is the auto- locking doors when you shut the door and walk away. Great gas mileage too . I recorded 370 miles once, on a full tank of mixed driving. No problems or complaints so far.

Wow, that’s a great review! Happy to hear that. Might look at one this weekend.
Keep making some more Acura videos I just got hired on I’m down at used cars but yesterday I saw a 2020 MDX advance
You got it! What sort of other videos would you be interested in seeing?
Really really nice video
Very very much appreciated 😆
This car is beautiful, how is the visibility on this car? The back small windows seem to be a blind spot.
We just got one and thought we should have this luxury long time ago
Just got an RDX 2020 base. Luv it!!
Ill buy used for 3 yrs old ill wait when it comes 22k
Did it come with remote start. I'm buying either a used 2020 or 2021 in the next week and not having RS is a no go.
Can I ask, how does the base stereo sound?
Yeah acura step their game up on this
This car is really really nice and very very cool!
This will be my next car
Can u post 2022 Acura RDX base as well. Thank you
🤩 I want one
Just wish they went all digital instrument display and touch screen on center display ..
Base model is the best value. Same engine as upper trim. Tons of standard features. All you needed
I agree. Just bought the 2022 base RDX and loving it. Test drove BMW X3 M40i, Audi SQ5, Genesis, and Lexus but you can't beat the value of the RDX. Wish they added a touchscreen but that's about all it's missing.
@@richarddawson5836 No no longer , just got the Genesis GV70...way better car, base $42.5K even better value
@@derrekb4501 Acura base is 46,300 in Canada and the same options in the Genesis is 55,500. Acura is the bar far the best value. I like the Genesis too but at nearly 9k more and it's the first year which is a gamble.
@@richarddawson5836 Wrong, please add the options to be almost the same you will see
@@derrekb4501You are wrong. The base RDX comes loaded including a panoramic sunroom that you have to go up in trim to get in the Genesis. Not to mention you get that ugly steering wheel and those weird exhaust tips on the GV70. The RDX is the best value and it's not even close.
Waiting for MDX to get interior update like RDX
Maybe in 2021
🤞🏼
Heated steering wheel should be standard on base RDX
You just don’t want to pay extra money, go get a CRV loser
How does the stereo on the base model compare to the ELS stereo on upper trims? Is it comparable to a premium stereo in a non-luxury car? How many speakers are there? Sorry, having trouble finding info on this.
Should make a drinking game, every time he says, “very very or really really”. LOL
Technology Package and up, comes with real leather. Below that, it is leatherette.
Hi, I would like more information!
Just bought an Advance loaded plus roof rack and mud flaps. Around $47k. The brakes are making noise during a hard brake. The gas mileage is worse than my 2016 V6 RDX. But I love the RDX, this is my 4th RDX.
George T....Shudda bought a 2020 Santa Fe has most all the same safety features for $20k less than you paid...same size.
@@bextar6365 but doesnt perform better than the RDX.
Bextar636 lol no
Bextar636 Yea but it will break down on the side of the highway in 2 years
@@perkhere2252unfortunately this is true lol
I'm trying to decide between the Lexus RX350 & the Acura RDX.. I'm gonna test drive both, then decide.
They are both great cars, cant go wrong with either. The RDX will come standard with a lot of features not available on the lexus
I'm looking at the same 2 vehicles, top trim levels in both. I have driven both on 24 hour test drives. You can read my dislikes about the RDX in my other post on this video, but no car is perfect. The lexus is a smoother riding car but RDX handles better. Lexus is quieter, especially under acceleration. The Mark Levinson audio system is better (amazing) in Lexus but the top level ELS in RDX is VERY good. Lexus is a more luxurious car but some things are worse. Steering wheel only heats at 3 & 9 oclock pos. in lexus. RDX is the entire wheel. Headlights are better in RDX than triple beam LEDs in lexus. RDX has more storage area. Lexus rear seats recline - RDX don't. Lexus uses regular gas & engine has port & direct injection to minimize carbon buildup. Lexus is more of a luxury car where RDX is more of a drivers car. And between the top trims the lexus costs $10K more. Good luck and let us know what you end up getting!
Great points on the comparison. That’s a tough one. I might just squeeze by with the Lexus, just because the badge says Lexus. That’s unfortunate it has to be like that. But brands name matter, that’s why people buy them. Do you want to drive around in a Kia or do you want to have an Acura or Lexus badge. No matter how great Kia might be, it’s not for me.
@@mellowjammer But the Acura SH-AWD is one of the better AWD systems out there. Big win for Acura, and why I'm going to get the RDX.
So there’s no rear USB ports on the base model?
Right, gotta go for tech trim
we have the exact same one, same color and everything except it’s got the sh-awd
What is the price for this base model ?
About 38,000 MSRP
No 12v cig lighter adapter on this vehicle ?
Yeah I'd be interested in this question as well
One major concern. I know its a compact suv (and mds is an option) but i'd really like to know if the back row can hold 3 baby car seats.
No.
@@RichardShelton Tnx
I don't really no difference but i know i will get one that's for certain!
I was on market for midsize SUV in 2019, tested RDX first as I had previously owned 2004 and 2006 Acura TL 6 speed manual, great cars, over 200K mls, very satisfied (prior had 1996, 1999, 2003 Accords, all unbelievable good cars!). I did fest drive Audi Q5, Lexus RX 350, BMW X3 and many others... I did like RDX, but when I read reviews in CR and actual RDX owners in Edmunds, I decided to stay away from Acura for now..54% owners rated it 1-3 out of 5 :-( , this car has real problems and Acura seems doesn’t care.
I’m leasing 2019 X3 since June that year and very happy with my decision (MSRP $54.895, yes it’s more $$ compare to RDX, but it definitely worth it, owners rating 4.3 out of 5).
I prefer a regular shifter, not buttons
Look at Acura doing much better, 👏 because I have a 2015 RDX which I love, but my husband always teases that his credit card is larger than my backup camera display and he's Right 😂😂🧐😳
Power liftgate is standard now, damn I wish mine had it but oh well... What's the engine or did I just miss that part. 😊

@@cameronschindler25 Thank you.
Hey, I actually have the Platinum Elite (a Canada trim) which is comparable to the Advance model in America.
For a luxury vehicle it also has so much hard plastic and no wood/metals (imitation or otherwise). It looks like the base has a much better interior now, which is so nice for a brand like that.
Does the base model have Blind spot monitoring?
yes it does
No
No, only tech package and up
Does the lane keep system centers the car? Why isnt acura clear about this.
Its nudges u back into the lane like any other car make with this feature...
It looks to be so, but does it have less hard plastics than the old generation? Even the base 2018 model has hard plastic everywhere. Which seems kinda unacceptable for a premium car.
No chargers in the second row.
In the tech package there is
no spare tire for base model ... its a tragedy
My base model came with a spare tire
I wonder if I can get this for $28k if so I will fly to you and get this. 😂
33k maybe
Does this have the ELS SOUND SYSTEM...IF SO SOLD!!!
ELS is available on tech & higher trim
Does the base model have a remote starter?
Not on a key, but via acura app on ur phone, yes
@@lukechoi12 got it! Thank you!
Dobro auto bez sumlje
That's not leather....it's vinyl in the Base.
Not vinyl either, that’s leatherette
@@RomaneMaticaliseGordon Ummmm ;-)
Only thing, no spare
My sister-in-law has the 2019 RDX and everything about the car is great EXCEPT the infotainment systems.... It doesn't hold Apple car play, keeps going on and off and crashes in the middle of driving - it's very distracting and I've read that there's a lawsuit going on.... I wanted to trade in my 2013 RDX for the newer, beautiful model, but this is a MAJOR PROBLEM... She's owned it for 2 years and is now going to trade it in for something other than Acura/Honda and I will do the same, unless they stand by their customers and do the right thing....
r
I have the 2019 base RDX and haven’t had that problem. I also have apple car play. Maybe she just needs to update the software? I haven’t had any issues with crashing or lag at all either.
My 2019 RDX has same car play issues. I tried all dealer suggestions. Restart iPhone. Have new genuine Apple cable. All software is up to date.
Otherwise car is great. Better then GLC same as X3 in all aspects. My seats are not leather. Maybe that changed for 2020
Just few weeks ago , all the acura dealers told me to go home because $500 difference between their price and my offer. Now , they are calling me to coming back , NO THANKS
No automatic folding mirrors on the base model? Disappointing for a “luxury” SUV
1. It’s a BASE model and 2. Acura is a performance brand not a luxury, go get a lexus if you want shit
Learn the difference between a premium brand and a luxury brand.
Acura are beautiful cars and they are better looking than the Honda's themselves. What they did to the looks of the new Accord is shameful.
I think the new Accord looks cool. It has some of the style lines as this RDX.
The new accord is beautiful and sporty! Looks like an Audi.
I have the base model crv, which this car is based off of. For $27k my moms suv is full of hard plastics, crappy cloth seats, and the floor mats and carpeting are very cheap Velcro material. I hate that car. It’s like a geo metro in terms of build quality.
They last forever though!
@@SimpleSalesman I like my 04 Lexus ES330. It last forever too and is very luxurious and for only $6000!
