horey shet that is a 9/10 in the looks department side rant those Acura/Honda LEDs are retina-melting, is there an adjustment knob to point the array down or is it static? |
horey shat for the interior, i like those seats. outside still looks like an angry bird pig, a la MDX https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/acurazi...11c226815b.jpg https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/...t_pig_copy.png |
I hope they offer a black interior. That tan is so mid 90's SC400. Bleh... 10 speed transmission? Like my old Schwinn bicycle! |
I like it! Looks like it's got the 2L turbo (and guessing it's the 10 speed auto) as well. Just spent yesterday checking out similar cars and this one looks like it could be a big winner with me. |
Holy shit, incredible looking crossover :ahwow: The athleticism of Mazda's Kodo combined with Honda/Acura's new design language, very dynamic looking. Nicely integrated floating roof design that seems to be all the hype these days too. Not sure how I feel about the centre console, seems kinda Santa Fe and not in a good way, and the NSX-esque switchgear looks like an afterthought. Steering wheel and centre screen are straight out of a BMW, this time in a good way though :ilied: But seriously though, that is one striking front end. Also Lexus flirted and failed with the whole trackpad RTI thing, so it'll be interesting to see how Acura goes about having a trackpad in this. |
:notbad: |
that acura badge in the grille is absolutely massive. is there some sort of radar sensor behind it? i know mercedes can pull it off, but this... |
SPECS coming soon...but holy crap...speakers in the roof lol. Highlights: 2.0 VTEC Turbo - with 40% more torque than the current RDX. SHAWD. Adaptive dampers. Suspension tuned for performance and comfort. ASPEC model Real wood and real metal 3D Sound system (speakers in the roof) 10 speed transmission. ****return of TYPE S within 3 years on some Acura models***** https://i.imgur.com/jkcQw6Y.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JqyUzmW.jpg |
they are bringing back SH-AWD? Hmm may have to ditch our MDX for this since it's such a gas guzzler... |
|
Totally change my opinion about the centre console, now getting a side-view, the floating centre console is incredible. |
Cx5 pre face lift with acura bits is all i see unfortunately. The interior does look pretty good for a change, and this will probably be a top seller. |
Heard they gonna put a V6T in there, possibly for the Type S. |

So some rough guesses to figure out performance: - Loaded CR-V is 3500lbs and it lost a 100lbs from the last gen so figure a loaded RDX will be between 3700-3800lbs (previous gen loaded was 3900lbs). - An Accord Touring 2.0L/auto with 252 hp at 3400lbs does 0-60 in 5.5s (Car and Driver) - The 2016 RDX at 3900lbs and a J35 does 0-60 in 6.2s with a 6 speed auto - The RDX likely gets a premium gas version of the K20C2 so figure 270hp (the premium gas K24 makes 17hp more than the regular one). - An Audi Q5 at 4100lbs, 252hp and a 7 speed does 0-60 in 5.8s, a GLC300 at 4100lbs, 241hp and a 9 speed does 0-60 in 5.9s. Add that up and I think the new RDX is going to be FAST for a base model. Figure low 5s. I'll do a few eggplants for that. The Type S with the rumoured turbo V6 is going to be a beast! |
don't know about you guys but that dash though.. mah gawdd:ahwow: |
yawn:sleepingzz: |
Got a bad feeling the touchpad is going to be a disaster like Lexus |
^ how come they need touchpad? the screen is too far to reach, yeah? Quote:
better flatulence clearance I suppose |

I doubt something nearly 700-900 lbs heavier with all the luxury items will be as quick off the line |

The RDX's closest comp is the Accord 2.0T which has the same drivetrain but in FWD - it'll weigh 300lb more than the Accord, make about 20hp more, and not be traction limited. The Accord bangs it out in 5.5s. Depending on final power numbers and weight the RDX should be thereabouts with the Accord or better. Edit: The other close comp is the Q5 which is probably 200-300lbs heavier, has less power, and only 7 gears and does 0-60 in under 6s. The RDX is going to be definitely faster than the Q5. |

It was also revealed that the new RDX will not share anything from the CRV platform. |
in red it reminds me of the mazda cx5 |
Are those 19" wheels? Edit: They are 21's :badpokerface: |
