I’ve seen a lot of these from different KZfaqr’s but never seen black and this Type S MDX looks nice in all black I would definitely get this color .

It’s a single turbo 3.0L V6 just like the TLX Type S

Hey Ben what's your opinion on this vs. ST explorer or r/t Durango ?

Ben, I got a 2022 MDX Advance (non Type S), in August 2021. Type S was a "pipeline" dream at the time. I am extremely happy with my MDX except for the MPGs. Granted I didn't buy (actually Leased) a 3 Row SUV for MPGs [getting only 13-15 in Suburban /City driving and 23 on the highway @ 70-75 MPH], the Type S is at least 15% Less than that. I would have really loved if Acura had done the following to make the non Type S really shine (at $62K ): included the suspension adjustments / auto Dampers; the Brembo Brakes which yields a harder pedal than mine; and IMO they could have Tweaked the 3.5 Engine for a bit more HP /Torque. Another alternative which God Knows why, they elimninated the MDX Hybrid - Iwould have paid the $1500-1800 premium for the Hybrid. Im 70, and don't really need a 3 Row ( I often wonder the sta on How many people actually use that 3rd Row on a regular basis - it's worthless for anyone other than small kids), and after owning many cars in my lifetime, realize all Novleties will wear Off. So far though, I have not experienced that with my MDX !! It's still Winking at me everyday. Having the extra HP / Torque is Exciting, but getting much reduced MPG especially NOW, with $5 a gallon Premium gas, would surely affect that decision.

It would be nice if you could change your test driving route so that we can see how the vehicles perform past 35-40 mph.

Can u do a aspec vs type s comparison

I love ACURA MDX, being a owner of 2020 MDX SH-AWD Tech BUT not going to purchase type S. i would rather go with Q7 V6 turbo, if I buy next 3 row SUV. Type-S just a hype but you get better value for Q7, where there turbo V-6 has been in the market for a while. Beside, Audi came up with mild hybrid, Acura is still behind; moreover, what’s up with no touch screen. by the way, I love your video, you are doing a great job Ben. Keep up the good work. Lastly, with current DNA, people would prefer performance car with improved gas mileage. ACURA should have utilized their RL version of hybrid to it.

Type S suppose to have all leather seats? this is an A spec package set up on a type S?

I wish the mdx exaust was loud as the tlx exaust

For this I go all the way to the type S advance vs this one which is the type S base.

Hello Ben, you did not mention the fact that there's no 'heated' steering and 360 Camera in the Type S but there is in the Ultra. There might not even be a massaging seat in the Type S. Acura made a very bad distinction between the Type-S and the Ultra IMHO.

I saw one yesterday I was like okay okay 😏

It has a single turbo

Acura makes some really rakish looking vehicles... And this is a lot of power for a 3.0L V6! It's probably dependable - and powerful. A decent pick, imo.

i wish they offer a analog speedometer mode like bmw !

Its not much.. go with the tlx for the lighter weight of the car.. if you want 7 seater get a regular mover suv.. there soo much more iut there besides in 75-80 grand you can you buy gtr at 90-100k price if you really like speed

The spiderweb speaker covers would look awesome in the black widow packages. In fact, the whole thing looks like it’s a black widow package. I wish I would have bought this for my wife over the pilot Edit: No touch screen? I don’t care how responsive the pad is, you have to have a touch screen. Imagine the passenger trying to change the station and reaching over to use the pad. Edit 2: I do the same exact thing when I’m in the pilot trying to shift. I’ll never get used to the button shifter, and I’ll never trust that it’s in park.

I always compare sports SUV/CUV to spork. It’s a compromised product.

They need to get rid of the cheap plastic that should have never been on a $72,000 performance suv to begin with. It should be high quality carbon fiber trim or high quality aluminum trim instead. And as for the engine they need a twin turbo hybrid V6 with 500 horsepower with 560 pound ft of torque. That gets 24 mpg city and 32 mpg highway. And upgrade the radio move it closer add a touch screen. Then make it 14 inches, and add a 100,000 miles 10 year warranty and I would be sold.

They are not accent lights. Daytime running lights

Twin turbo would’ve been shhhhhweeeeeet

Idk. I was expecting a better exterior for the type s. I was actually waiting for this to purchase but idk now plus the cloth middle seats??. Come on!!! I have the accord with the same thing. I hate it. I mean complete the leather works peoples

350ph for 70k $$ overflowing

Sad that this has a better interior than the NSX.

For $70k, I’d probably rather get an Audi Q7. This is a nice package though. Curious what the 0-60 and quarter mile times will be with this new powertrain.

Did u notice the time when he was talking about the center screen it was 7:04 it was exactly 3.33

Is this the new Chevy blazer? Lol

Gorgeous I like it

Honey! Honey!

For this money I would go for a BMW X5, Jeep Grand Cherokee L with the V8 or V6, GV80 with the twin turbo or something in the $70k range. Especially knowing Acura is gonna hype themselves up with a 2022 vehicle with still no Touch UI. Nobody wants to use a trackpad anymore. Even Infiniti understands the times. It’s like Acura doesn’t care what the public thinks, plus they will mark this vehicle up like crazy. You’re talking like $80k or more. Kick rocks for that

"pop it" 🙄

💪⬛👍

Dealer.. !

Not a twin turbo. Removed you from subscription

This should be $65k loaded and it’s a huge hit. At $75k, you now have to do something special for me to pick this over say an X5….no.

This dude needs to be fired. Twin Turbo??? Once he said this, I made a comment and cut the video off.

I’ve been driving my new MDX type S and realize how it’s not practical. No spare tire, jack or tire iron. If you have a blow out or hit a pot hole and damage a wheel or tire your stranded. I guess a road-trip is ruled out with this car. I’ve been driving in the city and I get 8.4 MPG. The passenger cannot control the infotainment system because this system is not passenger friendly. Every other car in this segment has an easy infotainment system to use with a touchscreen which the MDX doesn’t have. Overall the car looks nice but is not practical. If you buy the car be prepared to have buyers remorse.
