Key things to evaluate:
- Safety package: AcuraWatch
- Infotainment: 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto
- Fuel efficiency: While the official EPA fuel economy estimate is 21 mpg combined, we observed 17.9 mpg on our SoCal evaluation loop. Prior to that, over 160 miles of driving, the MDX averaged 19.2 mpg, including a 100-mile round-trip to Pasadena on free-flowing freeways.
Which Acura MDX trim should I buy?
The 2026 Acura MDX offers these trims:
- MDX: The base model gives you the core MDX formula with a 12.3-inch digital instrumentation display, a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and standard front-wheel drive, making it the entry point for shoppers who want the essentials.
- Technology: This package adds more equipment and can be paired with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, making it a smart value choice if you want a more complete luxury setup without moving to the sportier appearance packages.
- A-Spec: This trim adds blacked-out wheels and exterior trim, subtle styling changes, bolder interior treatments, and standard all-wheel drive for a more distinctive look.
- Advance: This package builds on the MDX with more upscale equipment and can be paired with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, making it a strong pick if comfort and convenience matter most.
- A-Spec Advance: This combines the A-Spec styling upgrades with the Advance equipment, giving you the best-value blend of appearance and features if you want a more premium feel.
- Type S Advance: This is the performance-focused choice, adding a more powerful turbocharged engine and other upgrades for improved performance.
What Acura MDX do most buyers choose?

What is the Acura MDX's resale value?
| Model Year | Current Avg. Price | Year-Over-Year Change |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | $47,320 | −10.83% |
| 2022 | $33,524 | −9.84% |
| 2024 | $41,201 | −9.55% |

Most model years in the table are down year over year, which creates better opportunities for used buyers. The largest drops are concentrated in the newer model years, while the older years show smaller declines. That pattern suggests you can often find stronger value in recent used MDX models without paying close to new-car pricing.
The 2016, 2014, and 2015 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −10.83% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −9.55%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 34.2% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 33.6%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2025 model has the most listings at a current average price of $47,320. The Acura MDX offers a comfortable, family-friendly cabin with a polished, premium feel.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: Most MDX models have a 3.5-liter V6 engine under their hoods. It generates 290 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque, and pairs with a 10-speed automatic transmission and Acura’s Integrated Dynamics System driving modes, including Snow, Comfort, Normal, and Sport.
- Tech: A 12.3-inch digital instrumentation display pairs with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and it offers wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, and wireless smartphone charging.
- Safety: Acura bundles most of the MDX’s driver aids into a package called AcuraWatch. They include: forward-collision warning, pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, and adaptive cruise control with traffic-jam assist.
- Starting price: Prices range from $53,150 to $77,200, including the $1,350 destination charge.
If you're buying used today, the 2025 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.

This car, the Acura MDX is a total surprise to me. The features are sophisticated and just the right amount of technology and swag that makes it an eye catching bang for my bucks. I came out of a Tahoe with great features and good looks that turned heads and attracted inquiries. My MDX is getting so many compliments and attention from my friends, family, and group members because the maintenance record was impressive and it has the look of luxury; it's a stylish vehicle, that boasts reliability second only to Toyota Lexus. I enjoy driving the MDX and the only thing missing is free oil changes.

CarGurus recommends the 2023 Acura MDX
Summary
With 211 currently listed for sale and an average price of $39,133, 58.8% of 2023 Acura MDX listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2023 Acura MDX 5 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 6.17 / 10.
100.0% of 2023 Acura MDX listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2023 Acura MDX stands out as a midsize three-row crossover SUV with a stylish design and Acura’s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive. It also earns great safety ratings, which adds to its appeal for buyers looking for a family-oriented SUV with a more polished feel. Acura says the MDX was last redesigned just one year ago, so it remains a relatively fresh entry in the lineup.
For 2023, Acura adds a complimentary three-year subscription to AcuraLink connected services and scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles. Those updates make the MDX a little easier to live with, especially for shoppers who value connected features and lower early ownership costs. Even so, it is not without drawbacks: the MDX is described as having poor fuel economy, poor ergonomic design, and a cramped third-row seat, which may matter to buyers who need maximum efficiency or adult-friendly space in the back.
