2007 Acura RDX - CNET Reviews
Looking at the body of the 2007 Acura RDX, we couldn't help but think of it as a truck, until we got behind the wheel. In an interesting design note, the RDX looks a little like a boat when viewed head-on, thanks to the way the underside is raked up toward the front bumper. The RDX is smaller than other crossovers we've tested recently, such as the Mazda CX-7 and the Ford Edge. The driver's seat gets 10-way power adjustment, but the front passenger seat has manual controls. Acura chose to make the RDX a tech powerhouse, including a similar Technology package to the one available on the Acura RL , a previous winner of our Tech Car of the Year award. But the RDX takes it a step further by adding an excellent stereo system. While we like all of this technology, Acura didn't do a good job of making the interface very usable, mounting buttons wherever they fit around the dashboard and steering wheel. The main interface for the RDX is a LCD screen mounted at the top of the stack, with function buttons and a joystick/dial right below it. The joystick/dial is big enough that it's easy to use, even while driving. Source: www.cnet.com
