2007 Acura RDX Auto Show Photo

Acura is poised to do battle with such entry-lux utes as BMW's X3, Rover's Freelander-replacing LR2, and the forthcoming Mercedes MLK-class. The 2007 RDX will be built on a 104-inch wheelbase alongside the new Civic in Ohio. The seats fold flat (including the front passenger seat) to accommodate two mountain bikes. Power comes from a brand new 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder producing 240 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. This engine is exclusive to Acura. A five-speed automatic boasts F1-style paddle shifters. A retuned version of the RL's Super-Handling AWD apportions torque from side to side and front to rear. Other noteworthy features include stability control with rollover sensing, DVD surround-sound audio, and satellite navigation with real-time traffic information. When the RDX hits showrooms this summer, we expect pricing to slot in between Honda's CR-V and Acura's MDX-figure $28-30k for starters.
