When you have a class-leading vehicle like the 2014 Acura MDX, it is difficult not to gloat. Sophisticated systems, unparalleled fuel-economy and safety ratings in its class, and absolute luxury all give us reasons to smile and wave goodbye to the competition. Instead, we will … Hmmm … humbly brag.
Yes, consider this our humbled brag.
So why should you consider an MDX as your next vehicle? Let’s try these five reasons:
- It earned the Best Value Award from Kiplinger’s Personal Finance based upon performance, safety, value, and driving impressions.
- Acura’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering: solid body structure and hot-stamped one-piece steel doors earned the MDX a TOP SAFETY PICK rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
- The powertrain is a direct-injected i-VTEC V-6 with fuel-saving Variable Cylinder Management technology, and it still churns out 290 horsepower.
- Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive: The signature system created by Acura that responds to the driver and the road conditions.
- The covey of other standard and optional features:
- AcuraLink – connected car services
- Agile Handling Assist – synergy between car and driver
- Keyless Access System with push-button start
- LED headlights
- Interior LED lighting
- Extended Slide second-row seats
- 8-inch On-Demand Infotainment Display
- 432-watt sound system
- Acoustic glass front windows and windshield
- Lane Keeping Assist System
- Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
- Remote engine start (up to 300 feet)
- Ultra-wide DVD Rear Entertainment System with HDMI connectivity
- Front and rear parking sensors
Okay, so that is far more than just five reasons – and not even all that this SUV has to offer! We hope you don’t blame us for being slightly deceitful, but it proved impossible to pare down the lavish, innovative 2014 Acura MDX.
