2016 Acura RDX Review: Redesigned and More Refined - The Cheat Sheet
Rolling around the Whole Foods parking lot, the RDX is at peace in its natural habitat: Five older models of the RDX pull in and out of parking spots around it, their well-to-do drivers eyeing the silver stallion with looks of longing. I, for one, have been waiting on this car with baited breath for quite some time: I’m the proud owner of a first generation RDX, and was thrilled when I heard that I was going to get the latest and greatest installment for an entire week. It doesn’t come with a turbocharged K23 powerplant like mine did, or the clever Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD), but we can get to that later since there have been a lot of updates to this car that make a lot of sense. Our loaded 2016 RDX came with AcuraWatch, lane departure warning systems, an accident avoidance set-up, and blind spot monitoring leading the charge alongside a multi-view back-up camera that warns you of approaching traffic. It gets a slightly more powerful engine to go with its marginally larger cabin, there are also rain-sensing wipers, air conditioned and heated front seats, an eight-way power passenger seat, as well as front and rear parking sensors.
