V6 Power That Feels Smooth and Confident
Under the hood, the 2026 Acura MDX is powered by a 3.5-litre i-VTEC V6 engine producing up to 290 horsepower and 267 lb-ft of torque. Power delivery feels linear and controlled, not jumpy or aggressive. The engine responds quickly when merging or passing, yet stays composed in everyday driving. Paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, shifts feel clean and well-timed, helping the MDX maintain a relaxed but capable driving character.
Super Handling All-Wheel Drive Control
Available Super Handling All-Wheel Drive plays a major role. The system actively distributes torque between the rear wheels, helping the SUV stay planted through corners and steady in changing weather conditions. Whether roads are dry, wet, or snow-covered, the MDX feels predictable and confidence-inspiring, which matters on Canadian streets.
Drive Modes That Match the Moment
The 2026 Acura MDX offers multiple drive modes designed to adapt to different conditions and moods. Throttle response, steering feel, and suspension behaviour adjust to suit the selected mode. Step up to the Type S Ultra and additional modes like Sport+ add a sharper edge when you want a more engaging drive. This adaptability makes the MDX feel versatile without ever feeling complicated.
A Cabin Built Around the Driver
Inside, the 2026 Acura MDX focuses on a driver-first layout with the digital Precision Cockpit delivering clear, customizable driving information. The available 12.3-inch centre touchscreen integrates Google built-in, wireless smartphone connectivity, and premium audio options like the available Bang & Olufsen sound system. Everything feels intuitive and thoughtfully placed, making longer drives feel effortless rather than overwhelming.
Three Rows That Actually Feel Premium
With seating for seven, the 2026 Acura MDX does not treat rear passengers as an afterthought. Heated seating, available massage functions, and flexible cargo configurations help the MDX balance comfort with everyday usability. It feels like a true premium family SUV rather than a performance vehicle forced into a three-row shape.
