Acura MDX
For the 2014 model year, Acura felt the need to update its MDX model, now in its third incarnation. It’s lighter and more fuel efficient. Still very spacious, it seats up to seven. Its V6 goes from 3.7 to 3.5 litres for 290 horsepower, 10 less than with the old version. With all-wheel drive, it remains faithful to its six-speed automatic transmission.
