REVIEWS

Automobile Magazine

"The powertrain isn't the only area of the RDX that's considerably smoother than before - it's incredible how well the RDX rides and handles. Terrible road surface quality doesn't mean the occupants are shaken like a martini. The RDX does a fantastic job of dampening impact harshness yet it doesn't feel too soft or wallowy. This is very impressive for a crossover."

"It exhibits excellent body control and accelerates crisply. The sport mode in the six-speed automatic transmission offers even snappier responses but is still calm and smooth enough so that you can use it around town."
