Road Beat - 2022 Acura MDX Type S review: better, but not the best
Submitted by paula on Mon, 08/08/2022 - 6:00am
What is it?
Acura’s venerable MDX SUV turned up a couple of clicks after receiving the ‘Type S’ treatment. Don’t overthink Type S, though, as it’s not the AMG equivalent for Acura (at least not yet, where’s the Type R, Acura?), yet this does bring a raft of hardware and tuning changes to make the most sporting Acura SUV ever. On paper, this new MDX Type S promises to be a more engaging and sporting SUV in their lineup to keep things interesting and hopefully fend off new and updated rivals in the luxury three-row SUV segment.
What’s good?
