Behind the Wheel of the 2022 Acura MDX

Feb 19, 2021

The 2022 Acura MDX has landed at Scanlon Acura in Fort Myers and it is a stunner! The first eye-catching change is the “longer, lower and wider” design on the outside. Inside the cabin, there’s more style and tech. Some new features include a redesigned digital gauge cluster and infotainment system touchpad. Another cool feature is the removeable second-row middle seat which essentially creates captain chairs allowing easy access to the third row. Other features make it feel like it was designed for hitting the beaches of Southwest Florida. Picture your family loading up for a trip to Captiva Beach and being able to fold down the third-row seats to pile in your beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, kids toys and more.

This new MDX is so highly advanced, you will want to race to Scanlon Acura to take a look for yourself. In the meantime, our Sales & Leasing Consultant Sam OrisDeRoa climbs into the driver’s seat to take us for a short spin around Ft. Myers while he points out the amazing new features.

Some additional highlights of the fourth generation Acura MDX include:

• Hidden USB ports
• Hidden, deep rear storage with a reversible floor mat
• 360-degree cameras
• Full size iPhone charging tray
• Huge infotainment screen

Another unique aspect of the engine/powertrain is the addition of a shutter grille. When needed, the shutters in the lower part of the grilled close to divert air around the MDX, reducing drag. When the engine needs cooling, the shutters reopen. It’s perfect for our Southwest Florida climate. This flagship Acura will get the Type S performance treatment in summer of 2021!
