How much does the 2014 Acura MDX cost?

Prices have softened 5.69% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 627 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for you to compare prices and equipment.

If you find a listing below $12,037.41, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2014 Acura MDX a good car?

Yes — you’re looking at a model with a 4.67/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 10/10 across Performance and Safety.

Owners consistently praise the spacious interior, smooth ride, and fuel economy, and the overview points to a three-row luxury SUV that balances family practicality with advanced technology. That combination makes sense if you want a refined daily driver with room for passengers and a strong feature set.

The market also shows 30.8% good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2014 Acura MDX reliable?

Owners rate it 4.67/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a vehicle that feels dependable, with drivers highlighting the smooth ride, comfort, and overall satisfaction over time. The expert review also describes the MDX as finely tuned and well-calibrated, with strong driving dynamics that support confidence in everyday use.

The cost-effectiveness review notes that Acura isn’t offering deals on the new MDX just yet, and that the brand’s historical reliability and dependability picture is mixed in the broader ownership data. For used buyers, that means condition and maintenance history matter more than mileage alone when you’re judging long-term ownership risk.

What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Acura MDX?

At 58.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the listing has any accident or repair history. Pay close attention to interior condition, seat comfort, and signs of heavy wear, since owners have noted concerns about material quality and comfort in some examples. It’s also worth checking that the technology and driver-assistance features work properly, because the MDX’s interface can be complex.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base version is relatively sparse beyond Bluetooth, music streaming, hands-free text messaging, a USB port, a reversing camera, and Jewel Eye LED headlights. The Technology Package adds keyless access, navigation, AcuraLink real-time traffic, a premium sound system, GPS-linked climate control, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, blind spot information, and larger 19-inch wheels.
• Powertrain: The redesigned model uses a 3.5-liter V6 with 290 hp and 267 lb-ft of torque, plus Variable Cylinder Management to help conserve fuel. A 6-speed automatic is standard, front-wheel drive is standard, and SH-AWD is optional.
• Safety package: The Technology Package adds forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and blind spot information. The Advance and Entertainment Package adds adaptive cruise control with low speed follow, lane keeping assist, and collision mitigation braking.
• Infotainment: Every MDX gets twin display screens, and the Technology Package adds navigation and AcuraLink real-time traffic. The Technology and Entertainment Package adds a rear-seat DVD system with a 9-inch screen, while the Advance and Entertainment Package upgrades to a 16.2-inch widescreen display.
• Fuel efficiency: The MDX is rated at 18 mpg city and 27 mpg highway, for a combined 21 mpg. The expert review also notes that the vehicle’s fuel economy is a strength for the class.

Which 2014 Acura MDX trim should I buy?

The 2014 Acura MDX is offered in 4 trim levels: base, Technology Package, Technology and Entertainment Package, and Advance and Entertainment Package.

Here's the short version:

• Base trim: You get the essentials, but it lacks the richer convenience, navigation, and driver-assistance content found higher up the range.
• Sweet-spot trim: The Technology Package is the best value if you want the biggest jump in everyday usefulness, because it adds navigation, real-time traffic, premium audio, and key safety tech without going all the way to the top.
• Premium/top trim: The Advance and Entertainment Package is the most luxurious choice, with the 16.2-inch screen, ventilated front seats, premium perforated leather, parking sensors, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and collision mitigation braking.
• Off-road trim: None of the trims is positioned as an off-road-focused choice.

The Technology Package is the key safety-package step up, since it adds forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and blind spot information.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Acura MDX?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop carefully and still find value.

• Deal availability: 30.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 627 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.69% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 58.4% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $12,037.41, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Acura MDX's resale value?

The current average of $12,615 sits slightly below last year's $13,376.

That price movement suggests the MDX has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right number. If you keep the vehicle in strong condition and maintain it well, you’re more likely to preserve value than a buyer who pays too close to the top of the range.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.67/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Acura MDX safe?

The IIHS says the MDX gets a Good rating in both the moderate overlap frontal-impact test and in the side-impact test, and the front crash prevention rating is Advanced.

It earns a 10/10 safety score from our experts.

The Technology Package adds forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and blind spot information, while the Advance and Entertainment Package adds adaptive cruise control with low speed follow, lane keeping assist, and collision mitigation braking. The expert review also notes that lane departure warning can be overly sensitive, so you should test the system during a drive and make sure it suits your preferences.

Should I buy a 2014 Acura MDX or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 30.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 58.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.69% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.67/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The redesigned 2014 model brings a stronger engine, better fuel economy, and a more modern cabin layout.

The bottom line: If you want the redesigned MDX with strong performance, good fuel economy, and a broad feature set, the 2014 is the right target. If you’re especially price-sensitive, focus on listings near the low end of the range and be selective about condition and history so you don’t give back the savings later.
