2010 Acura ZDX Review
Predictably, the 2010 Acura ZDX will essentially be an MDX with a longer, sportier body. The prototype ZDX Acura displayed at the 2009 New York Auto Show indicates a sleek 4-door SUV shape, with a steeply sloped rear liftgate, angular lower-body lines, and the shiny, spade-shaped grille insert that's appearing on other Acuras. We expect the ZDX to be visually distinct from both RDX and MDX. The 2010 Acura ZDX should parallel its parent for the powertrain and most other features. That means a 3.7-liter V6 and all-wheel drive, but look for a 6-speed automatic rather than the 5-speed unit found in the MDX.
Options
Likewise, the 2010 Acura ZDX should follow the MDX in offering only a handful of option packages. Acura hasn't released details yet, but we wouldn't be surprised to see Technology, Entertainment, and Sport packages. Dealers may offer other goodies like larger-diameter rims and low-profile performance tires. With crossovers seeming to get sportier all the time, the 2010 Acura ZDX should help broaden Acura's customer base, important for a brand that still aspires to gilt-edged status. But with even established top-selling vehicles now begging for sales, Acura may have to wait a while before its product offensive can pay tangible dividends, and nobody knows how long that might take.
Summary
Though we don't expect any major innovations, the 2010 Acura ZDX might introduce several features that would be new to this brand but that class rivals already offer. We're thinking of useful non-essentials like obstacle detection, a lane departure and/or guidance system, and adaptive cruise control, possibly integrated with low-speed automatic braking. Such items could be easily bundled into a Technology Package upgrade for those who must have all the bells and whistles, but we'll have to wait and see what the product planners cook up.

2010 Acura TSX Review When Acura redesigned its TSX last year, it was larger, heavier and softer than the previous version, but still only available with a four-cylinder engine (albeit a good one). Though it sold well, the car disappointed serious driving enthusiasts with its lackluster performance (relative to V6 rivals), lifeless steering and odd styling details. We were tempted to do a spoof on it, with a bunch of Piloti-shod car geeks singing (with apologies to the Righteous Brothers) "You've lost that sporting feeling, oh that sporting feeling." Thankfully, the 2010 Acura TSX cures most of those ills, as it has become stronger and more agile than last year's model, provided you opt for the new V6 trim level that also boasts recalibrated suspension and steering components. After spending some time with the 2010 Acura TSX V6, we all agreed that though it's undeniably a pleasure to drive it is quick, smooth, comfortable and composed it's still not as connected to the driver as we'd like a sport sedan to be. For most folks, we imagine that'll be just fine; in addition to the aforementioned traits, the TSX also enjoys Acura's strong reputation for quality and reliability. Still, those who'll eschew the interstate for the squiggly lines on the map or get up early on a Sunday to hit their favorite back roads will likely be left wanting something with a more involving personality. If that's you, then we suggest you also consider a BMW 328i or a Nissan Maxima. Performance Fitted with the corporate 3.5-liter V6 that sends 280 horsepower and 254 pound-feet of torque through the front wheels, the 2010 Acura TSX V6 packs a wallop. Lay into it and it pulls hard, without the annoying steering-wheel-tugging torque steer you'd expect when nearly 300 hp is funneled through the front wheels. We timed the car at a quick 6.4 seconds for the 0-60 dash and an equally impressive 14.7 seconds through the quarter-mile. The five-speed automatic (a manual transmission isn't available on the V6) furnishes quick, seamless gearchanges and no-lag downshifts. Furthermore, the tranny responded promptly to our commands when we worked the shift paddles. Throughout, the powertrain remains smooth, though we wouldn't have minded a little more bravado in the exhaust's soundtrack. Against fuel economy estimates of 18 mpg in the city, 27 mpg on the highway and 21 mpg combined, we averaged 18.1. Summary The ideal buyer for the 2010 Acura TSX V6 is someone who enjoys a responsive, well-mannered, fully loaded sport sedan. Those who value strong reliability and low upkeep costs should also check out this vehicle, as these qualities are hallmarks of Acura products. However, hard-core driving enthusiasts should look elsewhere.

2010 Acura TL Review
The 2010 Acura TL has a lot going for it -- athletic leanings, enough interior volume to accommodate adult-sized passengers, plenty of luxury features and Acura's traditional reputation for reliability. Unfortunately, all of this is wrapped in a skin that evokes a love-it or hate-it response. While we would all certainly like to think that aesthetics aren't everything, appearance does play a major role in choosing a car.
Trim Levels and Options
The 2010 Acura TL is a midsize luxury sedan that is available in base or sporty SH-AWD trim levels. The base TL comes equipped with 17-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlights, foglights, a sunroof, heated side mirrors, dual-zone automatic climate control, rear ventilation controls, heated power front seats, driver memory functions, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, leather upholstery, Bluetooth phone connectivity and steering-wheel-mounted audio, phone and trip computer controls. Also standard is an eight-speaker stereo with in-dash six-CD changer, satellite radio, streaming Bluetooth audio, an auxiliary audio jack and USB port. The optional Technology package is available on both trims and adds a hard-drive-based navigation system with voice recognition, real-time traffic, real-time weather forecasts, a GPS-linked and solar-sensing adaptive climate control system, keyless ignition/entry, a rear spoiler, rearview camera and a 10-speaker Panasonic/ELS surround-sound system with 12.7GB of digital music storage. Optional 19-inch wheels with high-performance summer tires are available, but only on SH-AWD models.
Summary
Either TL model, however, is a competitive choice in the entry-level luxury sedan segment that also includes such luminaries such as the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Cadillac CTS, Hyundai Genesis, Infiniti G37 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. Particularly in this set, the Acura's well-rounded demeanor and lower price makes it stand out as the sensible choice. You're not going to go wrong with any of these cars, but you will need to make sure you're down with the TL's new sheet metal.

2010 Acura RL Review
The 2010 Acura RL is a midsize luxury sedan technically available in three trim levels, although the two upper trims really consist of a pair of technology packages. Standard equipment on the RL includes 18-inch alloy wheels, automatic xenon headlights, a sunroof, keyless ignition/entry, heated eight-way power front seats with driver memory functions, a power tilt-telescoping steering wheel, leather upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, rear seat climate controls, an auto-dimming mirror, a power rear sunshade and manual rear side sunshades. Also standard are Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity, voice commands for the audio and climate systems and a 10-speaker Bose surround-sound audio system with six-CD changer, satellite radio, auxiliary audio jack and a USB/iPod audio interface. The RL with Technology package adds adaptive headlights, a back-up camera, heated and ventilated front seats, wood-grain steering wheel and shift knob, upgraded Bluetooth phone connectivity, GPS-linked solar-sensing climate control, and a navigation system with real-time traffic, real-time weather and Zagat restaurant ratings. The RL with Technology and CMBS packages adds radar-guided adaptive cruise control and the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS).
Walkaround
Every 2010 Acura RL comes with Acura's "Super-Handling" all-wheel-drive system that automatically proportions power to the optimum wheels for the best handling and wet-weather traction. The only engine available is a 3.7-liter V6 that produces 300 horsepower and 271 pound-feet of torque. A five-speed automatic transmission with manual shift paddles is standard. In performance testing, the RL went from zero to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. EPA-estimated fuel economy is 16 mpg city/22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined. The 2010 Acura RL's interior is beautifully crafted and attractively designed. A swath of convincing or real (depending on trim level) wood trim flows into a neat waterfall center stack that integrates the car's sizable number of electronic functions. The standard 10-speaker Bose surround-sound system is so superb that you'd swear Gladys Knight was riding shotgun, with the Pips crammed in back. Unfortunately, they'd find just as much space in the less expensive Acura TL which has a pretty good stereo, too. Even without the optional Technology package, major functions like audio and climate systems can be controlled by voice commands, buttons on the steering wheel and dash or a multipurpose control knob and LCD screen. These redundant controls may seem confusing in description, but they let the driver choose how to access commonly used functions. The trunk measures 13.1 cubic feet in capacity, a somewhat smallish figure for this class.
Summary
The SH-AWD system in the 2010 Acura RL works transparently but very effectively to maintain traction under the worst of circumstances. Along with the newly firmed-up suspension, it also provides cornering abilities that are more "sports car" than "luxury sedan." Overall, Acura's flagship offers a nice balance between a cushy ride and competent handling and is indeed a lot more fun to drive than its staid exterior would indicate.

2010 Acura MDX Review
With so many new small luxury crossovers on the road these days, it's easy to lose sight of the Acura RDX, now entering its fourth year of production. It would be a mistake for crossover shoppers to do so, however, because the 2010 RDX is one of the most entertaining compact luxury crossovers on the market. Dimensionally similar to the Honda CR-V, the RDX features available all-wheel drive, a long list of standard amenities, trendy interior styling and a unique feature in this segment -- a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. This is one CUV that doesn't deserve to get lost in the shuffle. That turbo-4 is an interesting story. Acura's engineers considered using the naturally aspirated 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine from the TSX sedan, but they decided (wisely, we'd say) that the RDX's extra mass called for more torque. Acura's stable of V6s provided additional candidates, but curb weight played a decisive role here, too -- a V6 would add pounds relative to a four, and that's the last thing the RDX needed. So the RDX ended up with a turbocharged 2.3-liter version of the TSX's four. With 240 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque, this engine isn't the brawniest on the block, but its turbocharged nature could be an additional draw for people living at higher elevations as it helps compensate for horsepower loss. For 2010, the RDX also features a host of changes designed to keep it fresh. For better or worse, the RDX has been treated to styling updates that include Acura's bionic beak of a corporate grille. A front-wheel-drive version is newly available, just in time to compete with front-drive rivals like the Cadillac SRX and Volvo XC60 3.2. There are new standard features, among them ambient interior lighting and a back-up camera. And as ever, the RDX offers competitive passenger and cargo space along with the availability of "Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive" (SH-AWD), a sport-biased system aimed at those who want an extra dose of driving entertainment.
Walkaround
The 2010 Acura RDX is a small five-passenger luxury crossover SUV available in one well-equipped trim level. Standard features include 18-inch alloy wheels, xenon headlights, a sunroof, ambient interior lighting, full power accessories, heated front seats, a tilt-telescoping steering column, a power driver seat with memory, a power passenger seat, a back-up camera, Bluetooth phone and streaming audio connectivity, leather upholstery and dual-zone automatic climate control. A seven-speaker audio system with a six-disc CD/MP3 changer, satellite radio, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls and a USB connection is also standard. The RDX's available Technology package adds a navigation system with real-time traffic, solar-sensing and GPS-linking features for the climate control and a 10-speaker Panasonic/ELS premium surround-sound audio system.
Summary
The 2010 Acura RDX's audible turbo whooshing sound is a pleasant departure from the standard six-cylinder soundtracks in this segment. Turbo lag is minimal, and power plentiful. The transmission's gearing is also well matched to the engine's power delivery. On the move, the RDX has a firm ride quality -- overly so on rough city streets. The payoff comes on curvy roads, where the RDX is as eager to play as any model in its class. Its firm suspension keeps body roll in check, and the signature SH-AWD system maximizes traction and cornering capability.

2010 ACURA MDX REVIEW
For the 2010 model year, Acura has updated the style and substance of the MDX, revamping the exterior to tie-in with the rest of the automaker's line-up and making a few upgrades to its powertrain to keep up with the competition. Obviously, the biggest change is the adoption of Acura's new corporate fascia. If you can get passed the massive shield, you'll notice a modified lower valence and a set of reworked headlamps that, like the updated RDX, retain their shape but benefit from a few tweaks to the interior elements. Out back, the changes are noticeably more subtle, with a splash of chrome trim and re-shaped exhaust pipes that tie the exterior elements together.
OPTIONS
The interior has been upgraded with a thicker steering wheel, new wood trim, and LED lighting. Acura says it also made the plethora of center-stack buttons easier to understand, but frankly, we didnt noticethe dash looked as busy and complicated as ever. Fortunately, the leather is sumptuous, the seats are very comfortable, and the navigation system is still one of the best available.
SUMMARY
Arriving at dealers late in the year, Acura says pricing will increase by about three percent over 2009 levels, which means well-equipped base models should start below $44,000. Loaded versions with all the driver aids, interior gadgets, and rear-seat entertainment likely will near the $55,000 threshold. Were anxious to see if the MDXs measurables have improved with the new transmission and suspension, and it seems Acura has taken one of our favorite luxury SUVs and made it incrementally better.

2010 Acura ZDX Review
Predictably, the 2010 Acura ZDX will essentially be an MDX with a longer, sportier body. The prototype ZDX Acura displayed at the 2009 New York Auto Show indicates a sleek 4-door SUV shape, with a steeply sloped rear liftgate, angular lower-body lines, and the shiny, spade-shaped grille insert that's appearing on other Acuras. We expect the ZDX to be visually distinct from both RDX and MDX. The 2010 Acura ZDX should parallel its parent for the powertrain and most other features. That means a 3.7-liter V6 and all-wheel drive, but look for a 6-speed automatic rather than the 5-speed unit found in the MDX.
Options
Likewise, the 2010 Acura ZDX should follow the MDX in offering only a handful of option packages. Acura hasn't released details yet, but we wouldn't be surprised to see Technology, Entertainment, and Sport packages. Dealers may offer other goodies like larger-diameter rims and low-profile performance tires. With crossovers seeming to get sportier all the time, the 2010 Acura ZDX should help broaden Acura's customer base, important for a brand that still aspires to gilt-edged status. But with even established top-selling vehicles now begging for sales, Acura may have to wait a while before its product offensive can pay tangible dividends, and nobody knows how long that might take.
Summary
Though we don't expect any major innovations, the 2010 Acura ZDX might introduce several features that would be new to this brand but that class rivals already offer. We're thinking of useful non-essentials like obstacle detection, a lane departure and/or guidance system, and adaptive cruise control, possibly integrated with low-speed automatic braking. Such items could be easily bundled into a Technology Package upgrade for those who must have all the bells and whistles, but we'll have to wait and see what the product planners cook up.

We expect the ZDX to be visually distinct from both RDX and MDX. The 2010 Acura ZDX should parallel its parent for the powertrain and most other features. That means a 3.7-liter V6 and all-wheel drive, but look for a 6-speed automatic rather than the 5-speed unit found in the MDX.
Options
Likewise, the 2010 Acura ZDX should follow the MDX in offering only a handful of option packages. Acura hasn't released details yet, but we wouldn't be surprised to see Technology, Entertainment, and Sport packages. Dealers may offer other goodies like larger-diameter rims and low-profile performance tires. With crossovers seeming to get sportier all the time, the 2010 Acura ZDX should help broaden Acura's customer base, important for a brand that still aspires to gilt-edged status. But with even established top-selling vehicles now begging for sales, Acura may have to wait a while before its product offensive can pay tangible dividends, and nobody knows how long that might take.
Summary
Though we don't expect any major innovations, the 2010 Acura ZDX might introduce several features that would be new to this brand but that class rivals already offer. We're thinking of useful non-essentials like obstacle detection, a lane departure and/or guidance system, and adaptive cruise control, possibly integrated with low-speed automatic braking. Such items could be easily bundled into a Technology Package upgrade for those who must have all the bells and whistles, but we'll have to wait and see what the product planners cook up.

2009 Acura TSX Review
The 2009 Acura TSX is the brand's entry-level sedan. As such, it's aimed at buyers who grew up with the boom of the sport compact scene and were raised on Japanese cars but now need a more functional and roomier vehicle to match their changing lives. Based on the European market Honda Accord, the TSX went through a slight refreshing last year, with a small bump in horsepower from 200 to 205, minor exterior revisions, a hands-free cell phone wireless interface and an auxiliary media jack. Some potential buyers might be surprised to learn that the 2009 Acura TSX still comes with a four-cylinder engine only. This is a luxury-branded car, and even the Accord can be had with a V6, right? But from Acura's standpoint, the four-cylinder has advantages in weight reduction and price while still making competitive amounts of power. The TSX mainly competes with lower-end versions of the Audi A4 and BMW 3 Series, as well as the Lexus IS 250 and Volvo S40. Frankly, we think this car is just a blast to drive, even with its minor shortcomings in engine power. Overall, it's worth strong consideration.
Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2009 Acura TSX entry-level sports sedan seats five and comes in only one trim level. Standard equipment includes 17-inch alloy wheels, xenon HID headlights, leather seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, a moonroof, power accessories, a power driver seat and a premium sound system. The only factory option is a navigation system, which is simple to use, intuitive and recognized as one of the best in the industry.
Summary
The TSX is sophisticated and super fun, like a sports coupe in a tuxedo. While the four-cylinder engine is a tad underpowered and seriously lacking torque, once you get it revved up, it really delivers. We love the six-speed manual transmission as it makes you feel like a pro driver with its short, precise shifts. Amazingly, we can't complain much about the automatic either. Handling is sharp, the steering is quick, the sports-tuned suspension reduces body roll and the car feels solid and safe. During less spirited driving, the TSX makes good on its promise as a luxury brand and provides a solid, compliant ride that always feels just right. Pros, High-revving engine that sounds oh-so good, razor-sharp handling, slick six-speed manual transmission, very refined and upscale interior, lots of standard equipment.

2009 Acura MDX Review
The new 2009 Acura MDX is a luxury crossover SUV all set to impress adventurous drivers with its versatility and performance. Acura engineers have applied breakthrough technology to create all in one vehicle with handling of a performance, luxury car and the freedom and common sense of an SUV. The result the luxurious, quick-handling, all-weather, all-new 2009 Acura MDX. Designed to be the best luxury 2009 SUV in its class, the 2009 Acura MDX exhibits a unique technology-based approach to building vehicles. The cars primary mission is to achieve unheard-of levels of performance and handling. The MDX offers one of the best combinations of a high-tech interior, excellent safety and smooth handling in its class. It excels as a performance-minded family vehicle.
Packages, Options and Interior
The MDX comes in only one trim, but there are three option packages available -- the Technology Package, the Sport Package, and the Entertainment Package (which requires one or both of the other packages). A very clean interior design, with a good mix of contrasting materials and matte-metallic surfaces make the inside of the 2009 Acura MDX feel sporty yet inviting. However, the controls could be simplerfor the audio system especially. Programming the voice-activated system takes patience and time. But it's still better than BMW's iDrive. Driver and front passenger seats are generously apportioned and good for even the tallest and largest folks, but the minuscule third-row seat is only for small kids. Families will find plenty of storage cubbies as well. All models come standard with leather upholstery, 18-inch wheels, three-zone automatic climate control system with humidity control and air filtration, a Bluetooth hands-free calling interface, a six-disc in-dash changer, and XM Satellite Radio. A Sport package with auto-damping suspension is available; it also includes a premium leather interior and a special wheel design. A navigation system featuring real-time traffic and a rearview camera is optionally included in the Technology package, which this year also includes the power tailgate.
Summary
A beefed-up 260-horsepower, 3.5-liter, V-6 engine is the heart of the new 2009 Acxura MDX, and of itself, is a force to be reckoned with. This engine produces a class-leading 260 horsepower at high rpm while churning out impressive torque that peaks at 250 pounds per foot, so drivers can accelerate quickly to highway speeds with exhilarating responsiveness in an average Acura MDX road test or in the everyday. Acura's Super Handling all-wheel-drive (SH-AWD) system is standard across the 2009 MDX model line; the full-time all-wheel-drive configuration distributes the optimum amount of torque not only between the front and rear axles, but also between the left and right rear wheels, to help maintain better stability and traction when cornering. A 300-horsepower, 3.7-liter V-6 engine brings strong acceleration to the MDX and impressive passing power, thanks to the responsive yet smooth five-speed automatic transmission. The 2009 Acura MDX has impressive towing ability for such a vehicle, with a maximum rating of 5,000 pounds.
