2016 Acura MDX vs 2015 Acura MDX

When automakers release new models it can be difficult to discern the differences between upcoming and current models. The difference may be a minute change to the front grille or it may be an upgraded, performance-tuned all-wheel drive or a more efficient transmission. Whatever the difference may be, it is important information that you should have in hand when you head to the dealership looking for a new vehicle, so we have created a 2016 Acura MDX vs 2015 Acura MDX comparison to illustrate the differences. It is safe to say the 2015 Acura MDX is already one of the most impressive luxury crossovers on the road and with new features, it promises to get even better when the 2016 Acura MDX is released.

America’s best-selling, three-row luxury SUV is lauded for incredible performance that is both thrilling and efficient. A new element that the 2016 MDX will possess when it arrives at dealerships is a performance-enhancing nine-speed automatic transmission with a push-button electronic gear selector. This new transmission is lighter, to improve weight distribution and also delivers 25-percent faster gear shifts to improve handling and performance.

When it comes to performance, Acura’s Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) is one of the most innovative systems on the road. With SH-AWD at your disposal you will experience racetrack-caliber handling on dry pavement as well as a more confident driving experience in poor weather. For the 2016 model year, the Acura MDX receives a next-generation twin-clutch, rear differential SH-AWD system. More agile and responsive, the twin-clutch Super Handling All-Wheel Drive not only monitors torque and traction between front and rear axles, but also between left and right rear wheels.

Safety is another priority of the upcoming Acura MDX, which will add the AcuraWatch suite of advanced safety features. Standard with the Advance Package, this feature adds a slew of crash-prevention technologies including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning and the Collision Mitigation Braking System. These high-tech safety systems operate primarily on a combination of camera and radar technology to keep you safe. The 2016 Acura MDX will also possess a greater range of features throughout the Acura MDX model lineup, including a standard Multi-View Rear Camera, a bi-directional remote engine start, idle stop and heads up warning technology.

It is often difficult to differentiate one model year from the next, but intramodel comparisons like our 2016 Acura MDX vs 2015 Acura MDX can help. To truly understand how the Acura MDX is changing, however, you need to get behind the wheel and experience it for yourself, so stop in today and schedule a test drive at Joe Bullard Acura.
