- The 2022 MDX will go on sale in the U.S. February 2.
Acura showed the redesigned 2022 MDX in prototype form in October, and now we know all about the real deal, the production version of the new three-row SUV that will go on sale in the U.S. early in 2021. Pricing, dimensions, and full specifications show that the new model is larger, better-equipped, and a few thousand dollars more expensive than its predecessor. The standard model is offered with A-Spec, Technology, and Advance packages, and a more powerful Type S variant will arrive a few months later.
The 2022 Acura MDX starts at $47,925, a $2400 uptick from the old model’s base price. It’s powered by the same 3.5-liter V-6 engine with 290 horsepower and 267 lb-ft of torque, but a ten-speed automatic transmission replaces the old nine-speed. Front-wheel drive is standard and SH-AWD is a $2000 option on the base version and models equipped with the Technology package. SH-AWD comes standard on the A-Spec, starting at $58,125, and the loaded model with the Advance package, starting at $61,725.
You’ll pay more for the new MDX, but you’ll also get more car. The new model is longer and wider than before and has a 2.8-inch longer wheelbase. This makes for more interior space, with third-row legroom growing by 1 inch and cargo space behind the third row growing by 2 cubic feet, to 18 cubic feet. All 2022 MDX models have a second-row seat with a removable center section that can either be configured for separate captain’s chairs or a three-passenger bench; total seating capacity is six passengers with the section removed or seven passengers with it installed.
Acura has yet to release pricing for the Type S model, which will have standard SH-AWD, a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 engine with 355 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque, and upgraded tires and brakes. It will also come standard with equipment such as an ELS premium audio system and will offer unique colors and interior trim options.
Acura says the standard 2022 MDX will go on sale starting February 2, 2021, with the Type S set to follow in late summer of 2021.
