The Acura RDX’s turbo four is still a bit of an anomaly in the small luxury SUV/crossover segment.
What a quick little crossover! Honda’s first-ever U.S.-market turbo is a pretty good one, generating gobs of mid-range torque and providing a swift kick in the back when taking off from a light. I’m not so fond of the RDX’s inability to put down all this power, as evidenced by frequent wheel spin at launch accompanied by a bit of torque steer. Opting for SH-AWD would likely render this complaint moot, and would put the price of this loaded Acura at $38,430 – about the same as a base Audi Q5 lacking features like navigation and Xenon headlights.inline_mediumwraptextright28439632/reviews/editors_notebook/1003_2010_acura_rdx_tech1003_11_z+2010_acura_rDX_tech+front_three_quarter_view_snow.jpgTrue
