Why? Because people get bored. Also, the revised MDX will feature \u201csubstantial design enhancements, added luxury comfort and convenience features, and advanced new powertrain technology.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bet you didn\u2019t know that, did you? Does your current MDX have substantial design enhancements and added luxury comfort? Not like this it doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>Like Apple\u2019s products, the new MDX was designed in California (by Acura\u2019s design studio in Torrance) and like \u201cTo Kill a Mockingbird\u201d it will be produced in Alabama. While we don\u2019t know precisely what it will look like, our fingers are crossed that it will look like Acura\u2019s supercar, the NSX.<\/p>\n<p>Sure, an SUV is not a supercar, but that doesn\u2019t mean they can\u2019t have a passing resemblance. Do you have a super good-looking member of your family that therefore technically looks a little bit like you? Same difference.<\/p>\n<p>As Acura likes to remind people, the MDX is \u201cthe best-selling three-row luxury SUV of all time\u201d (according to their press release) and Acura\u2019s best-selling SUV. So the next time you\u2019re about to think \u201cthree-row luxury SUV,\u201d do yourself a favor and think Acura because you\u2019re probably about to buy one anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Have you never driven an MDX? That\u2019s a shame. It just got a dual-clutch, 9-speed automatic transmission last year along with super handling all-wheel drive. That means it\u2019s very efficient with fuel and better at handling in slippery road conditions.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re in a full-size SUV and on ice or snow, it\u2019s nice to know you\u2019re not about to plow into the audience. Come on by Leith Acura to test drive one at your leisure; we\u2019ll have you all set up so you can handle next year\u2019s winter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cTough\u201d and \u201ctease\u201d don\u2019t usually go together in the same sentence, but for the 2017 Acura MDX the universe is making an exception.
