Exterior styling is fabulous.

Infotainment is awful! Constantly disconnects from the phone. No sirius XM radio is ridiculous! Can’t wait to get rid of this car.

pros

The 2025 Acura MDX delivers a remarkably quiet and smooth ride, making every journey enjoyable. As I continue to explore all its features, I’m discovering more about its technology and capabilities. One challenge was adjusting the brightness of the information screen at night, as the solution wasn’t readily available in the manual—I had to turn to Google for guidance. Despite this minor hurdle, I’m thoroughly enjoying the MDX and appreciate its refined design and advanced features.
