That’s quite a bit more than the $57,990 cost of the base-model MDX, and a fair jump from the next-highest Platimum Elite variant ($58,990). But for the extra dough, buyers get an exclusive 3.0L turbo V6 engine good for 355 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque and working in tandem with a 10-speed auto transmission, as well as an upgraded version of the company’s vaunted Super Handling All-Wheel Drive System. The Type S also comes standard with 21-inch wheels, Brembo 4-piston caliper brakes in front and an adaptive air suspension system.
All of that is designed to increase the sportiness and dynamism of the SUV on the road. It’s still a relatively big lug of a utility model, but this Type S promises to be a racier version of what was already a racier 2022 edition of the MDX compared to previously. It joins the TLX Type S and NSX Type S as the sportiest trims in the Acura lineup.
