Compare the MDX to what Lexus offers as a premium three-row SUV: the TX 350. The Acura outmuscles the TX with its powerful, smooth V6. The Lexus has an inline 4-cylinder that struggles to keep pace. And the MDX features racing-bred double-wishbone front suspension, rather than the less sporty MacPherson struts of the TX 350.

Dominance over the Lexus is just part of the Acura MDX story. Take a moment to brush up on all the ways the MDX outshines the competition at the Acura Info Center.
