2022 Acura MDX | Premium Family SUV Review
Рет қаралды 123,158
Күн бұрынThanks to my day job at Kelley Blue Book, I drive and review lots of cars. This 2022 Acura MDX is one of them. The Acura MDX is a midsize luxury SUV that competes with the Genesis GV80, Volvo XC90, and Lexus RX-L. The BMW X5, Audi Q7, and Porsche Cayenne might also qualify as fancier alternatives. In this video, my wife, daughter, and test a 2022 Acura MDX A-Spec to review its positives and negatives from a family perspective.

Your reviews are so cute and fun that even though I'm not driving many of the vehicles you're reviewing (I drive a 2021 Nissan Rogue Platinum AWD, thanks to your family review of it), like this Acura MDX, I still watch them just to watch how much fun you're having reviewing it with Evie and your kid. Keep it coming, Micah and Evie.

As a father, I think these family reviews are great, but more importantly, they're a time capsule for the Muzio family. It gives them a chance to see how they change over time and how much their daughter has grown. I think that's the most beautiful part of the videos. I also dislike black, shiny plastic in cars. 😂

Micah stumbled on your channel, so glad you're doing this. So many of the car reviews are done by people w/o families where their priorities are just different than family men/women. Hey I was 20 once and was driving sports cars in the winter. Once you have the family you care about keeping them safe while you can still enjoy your ride. Keep up the great work!

With so many cars held up because of the issues with micro-chip and battery shortages, I was most pleased to see Acura is one that did everything right. Total make over and past owners love the one million + MDX's saying this one is the best of the best. I agree and drove all the luxury cars. Bought the Red Pearl and love how it drives through our curves and rolling hills in most of Alabama. The beaches are coming soon! Now that we have our shots the wife and I may just go see family in K.C. and Branson area! Love all the tech, but it takes a few weeks to get used to all the interesting features with the two huge 12.5 inch screens. Like that the music, sat., and even air and heat are easy control, not needing much work to get moving. Several I drove you had to activate the tech screen while burning up inside the SUV, NOT GOOD. Acura has really worked this MDX over inside and out, and the 10 speed in house transmission works so well with the 3.5 six. I will drive this three years and by that time who knows how far the EV's, PHEV's and perhaps the infrastructure will be for long trips, so you have little anxiety. I also like, which NO reviewer has mentioned is it says on the gas cap, use regular, mid-range or premium, try that with a Mercedes, Audi, Lexus, BMW, etc., etc.

By any change was the auto start/stop system on or off while you were driving this vehicle? I know you said that you felt a hesitation in terms of power delivery while flooring the MDX. My parents have an Advance Pkg one (we did not want the Type-S due to low-profile tires that go flat easily) and while I do agree that there is a hesitation in power delivery while the auto start/stop system is on, we never felt like there was a hesitation in power delivery while the auto stop/system is off (which is why we always keep it off). We love our MDX and I am hoping to make an ownership review on it at some point though I’m still deciding on what exactly to say in my review (I want to be as informative as possible while not offending people). This is the 1st video of yours I have ever watch and found it to be very informative and entertaining. Keep up the fabulous work!

People are so dumb when they just start repeating something they read in the comments somewhere without asking a professional what the similarities and differences are, like say, a mechanic or engineer
