2019 Acura RDX

The 2019 RDX is the first in a new generation of Acura models designed and engineered around Acura's authentic and original Precision Crafted Performance brand values.

The RDX redesign features a new-from-the-ground-up, Acura-exclusive platform, a powerful, responsive and efficient new powertrain, and a more spacious, premium and tech-savvy cabin. The 2019 RDX's NSX-inspired high-deck floating center console lends the cabin a more intimate "sports cockpit" atmosphere.

With its new turbocharged engine, segment-first 10-speed transmission and the newest generation of available Acura Super Handling All-Wheel Drive, the new RDX is also the quickest, best-handling RDX ever; and with its new longer and wider platform, the 2019 RDX also boasts top-class cabin and cargo space with exceptional comfort, utility and versatility.

New Acura features and technologies being introduced for the first time on the new RDX include next-generation Acura sport seats with up to 16-way power adjustability, Acura/ELS Studio 3D premium audio system, natural language voice recognition, and the first ever deployment of Acura's True Touchpad Interface, an intuitive, easy-to-learn user interface designed from a clean slate around the driver and the driving experience.

Through its extensive redesign, the 2019 RDX focuses on performance more than ever before. Power comes from a new direct-injected and turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-4-cylinder engine with VTEC valvetrain. With peak output of 272 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque, the RDX has the highest power output among key competitors1. Peak torque is up 28 lb.-ft. and available from 1,600 to 4,500 rpm, with a 40 percent increase in low-end torque versus the outgoing 3.5-liter normally aspirated V6.
