2016 Acura MDX Specs
2016 version of the best-selling model Acura may look the same as last year, but there are many things going on behind the chiseled face. For starters, the MDX crossover gets a new ZF nine-speed automatic transmission. Adding three wheels create a wider spread of ratios in the six-speed than previous models, as if to help keep MDX 290-hp 3.5-liter V-6 in the more efficient power and torque band. No 290-hp / six-speed combo that last year was left behind, but Acura, like all cars, is looking to increase the vehicle but the EPA estimates could. And apparently, luxury arm of Honda more comfortable offering nine speed of the continuously variable automatic. The first is a creeper gear SuperLow. MDX storms out of the hole from the rest using a 20.4: 1 ratio overall and sprint to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds, half a second faster than the 2014 model that we tested with six-speed automatic. Then continue to the 95-mph quarter-mile trap speed in 14.6 seconds, three tenths quicker than 2014. You into second gear before you can finish saying Acura. More reviews on 2016 Acura MDX.
Shifting the wide-open-throttle is torque-clipped and fast. Of course, having more teeth does not always mean the transmission quickly find the right gear-as sometimes when tipped with part throttle at 20 to 35 mph it will take in the tooth is too high for a while. But mostly, there is a whole lot shiftin 'occurred. About shifting that: input driver via a button instead of a lever, as well as on the sedan version of the new nine-speed TLX. Although off-putting at first, like learning to play the clarinet, we finally got the hang of it. There are some cases, perhaps when trying to do a quick three-point U-turn in front of close to half, in which you may miss the familiarity of the shift lever PRNDL Neanderthal. With push-button setup, you need to take your eyes off the road, looking down, find the desired button and pushed it. Eliminating the console shifter does not free access to the bottom of the center stack, but the key agriculture takes up about the same amount of real estate in the console as did the old shifter.
To-New 2016 Another feature is the idle stop. Such as automatic stop-start system other, Acura shut down the engine at red lights to save fuel. Was partly responsible for the bump 1-mpg on the EPA city fuel economy rating. There is also a lump felt as machine suddenly restart after idle stop; it's not as hard as we experienced in some BMW and Porsche, but it's not a subtle revival also comes from Mercedes-Benz, either. Overall, we see an average of 21 mpg by 2016 MDX lead leg while our treatment, 2-mpg increase over the six-speed MDX we tested in 2014. As luxury-brand crossover, Acura MDX with lards technology features.
For 2016, we see the expansion of AcuraWatch for all versions of the MDX. Our $ 58,000 test vehicle, equipped with Advance and Entertainment package, also featuring rear cross-traffic monitoring, mitigation Departures Road, and Collision Mitigation Braking. A eyed camera must be able to see the road or another car or object to the latter two systems to function. Thanks to poor road maintenance, we can not rely on the strength of the active steering system of road-departure. Sometimes it works and other times we might have gone sailing off into the weeds. However, when we tested the collision mitigation system on similar products Honda / Acura on a test track, it never fails to do full-ABS stops short of the balloon car parked in the vehicle standing at 20, 30, and 40 mph without driver intervention. Very cathartic. Therefore, our test MDX experience brake fade after only a few ABS stop is executed to record the stop distance of 185 feet, 70-mph-to-zero. But in essence, the Acura MDX remains one of our favorite seven-passenger crossover. 2016 transmission and update technology to help stay competitive in its class and take nothing from the handling of the spirit and character of fun-to-drive.
