Description

The 2001 Acura MDX™ was launched in 2000 to define a new era in the evolution of luxury sport utility vehicles, treading beyond the limits of existing SUVs in terms of handling, packaging efficiency and environmental impact. It was developed with the overriding goal of setting new benchmarks for luxury SUV performance. That performance goal applies to the three main themes of the development concept; to establish new performance benchmarks in the SUV category for versatility, responsibility and dynamic performance. As the development process progressed, an additional development goal was added – furnishing the vehicle with an array of cutting edge features that effectively “defeat winter” for its driver and passengers – limiting the harsh effects of the cold winter months on MDX occupants.
