REVIEWS

Car and Driver

Unlike the traditional SUV, which has no sport and too little utility, the MDX is a roadgoing athlete clad in extreme-sports attire.

"The curve of its pillars and the sweeping arcs of the dash strike up such a sporting mood as you drive that, when you’re done, you expect to step up when you step out."

"Forget the ponderous moves you associate with tall vehicles. The MDX is quick on its Michelins."

"On the road, this is a composed machine, confident in its stride, very good for wind noise, decidedly sporty for road-impact noise."

"The MDX won’t put the tall-box SUVs out of business, but for road driving, it sure puts them to shame."

"There’s a lot of competition among mid-size luxo SUVs, but the MDX still delivers a great combination of utility, luxury, and value with one of the best chassis in the segment."

"...a clever all-wheel-drive system that’s worth a couple points on any driver’s confidence meter."
