The 2017 Acura MDX is a no-frills and straightforward sports utility vehicle. The car packs every standard SUV features, and on top of it add a touch of luxury. The new MDX also packs an impressive engine and hardware that makes it a worthy pick.
What is even more impressive is how Acura sells the 2017 MDX. The company has created a dedicated web page where potential buyers can build their own MDX by simply ticking the options that they like. This is an easy alternative to going to a showroom and then being presented with hundreds of pages of specs sheets.
