The 2025 Acura MDX is a petrol SUV with AWD and seating for 7. It belongs to the YE1 LCI generation. The A-Spec SH-AWD is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured A-Spec SH-AWD version develops 290 hp and 380 Nm (280 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 6.2 seconds, which is decisively quick for everyday road use. Top speed is listed at 230 km/h (143 mph). Its power output is about 6% above the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 14% quicker than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 10.4 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 73.0 litres (19.3 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 237 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,999 mm (196.8 in) in length, 1,999 mm (78.7 in) in width, and 1,731 mm (68.1 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,890 mm (113.8 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 425 litres (15.0 cu ft), expanding to 2,017 litres (71.2 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 7 occupants. Listed curb weight is 2,045 kg (4,508 lb). The recorded braked towing capacity is 2,268 kg (5,000 lb). That cargo volume is about 25% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
The model range
The recorded line-up consists of A-Spec SH-AWD and Type S. Across the range, the specifications span 290 hp to 355 hp and 5.7 s to 6.2 s, while listed starting prices run from $55,250-$65,750. Drivetrain, battery or engine choice, wheels and market equipment can all change the final figures, so the version table should be used when choosing between them.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol SUV models from the same period, the 2025 Acura MDX is strongest on acceleration, while cargo capacity stands out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
