What Owners are Saying About the 2026 Acura RDX

"Would like to love this car, but I don't"

"Car is exceptionally fine driver, but the infotainment system is a constant source of irritation due to several issues (30-45 seconds to first music after starting car) and freezing of the USB device every few days (have tried 3 different USB drives). Should have read more user reviews before buying."

"2019 RDX Advance Superb"

"I leased this vehicle after reeearching for six months and driving everything on the market In Honolulu. There’s no other new 2019 SUV with the extras this vehicle has for the price and quality. Believe me I’ve driven everything out there. Classy,practical, economical and fun to drive. Nothing compares regarding storage space and the ride is WOW exciting. You’ve got everything you could ask for with exceptional affordability. Go get one!"

"Great all around value!"

"I did quite a bit of research before leasing the RDX. I needed a car that was really good in the snow, had decent cargo space, and a comfortable back seat. The RDX has met all these requirements at an excellent price for the class. The car is a pleasure to drive with a smooth ride, excellent handling, and powerful headlights. My husband has a Mercedes and I prefer driving the RDX at night because the visibility is better. I also enjoy the tech. system; however, it's quite sophisticated with many features, so I haven't mastered it, and I don't know if I ever will. Regardless, it does what I need it to do. The only things I don't care for in the car are the brake alert feature, the out-of-lane alert, and the low MPG (23). These high-tech alerts need to be improved, as there are times they flash inaccurately becoming more of a distraction than a help."
