Acura will phase out the RDX after the 2026 model year, making now a perfect time to purchase this impressive SUV. There are several reasons to acquire the SUV before it’s gone. This includes its performance, which balances power with an impressive combined fuel economy as low as 9.9 L/100 km. Plus, Super Handling All-Wheel Drive and the Integrated Dynamics System come standard. The RDX also offers standard comfort features for cold-weather driving in its spacious cabin. Continue reading with the experts at Sterne Acura to learn why you should purchase the Acura RDX before it’s gone. 

Reason #1: Impressive Performance 

The 2026 Acura RDX perfectly balances performance with a fuel-efficient ride. It’s powered by a standard 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine that outputs 272 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. It has a strong fuel economy, with a combined score of 9.9 L/100 km for the base trim option. The other trims offer a slightly higher rating, with a combined 10.3 L/100km.

Reason #2: Superior Handling

Acura has made Super Handling All-Wheel Drive standard across the 2026 Acura RDX lineup. This impressive system is designed to offer superior control with its race-inspired torque-vectoring. Also standard is the Integrated Dynamics System. It offers four driving modes, snow, comfort, normal, and sport, for a confident ride on any road.

Reason #3: Standard Cold-Weather Comforts

Another thing the 2026 Acura RDX makes standard? Luxury. The front seats of the SUV are heated and offer 12-way power adjustment, including 4-way power lumbar support. A heated, leather-wrapped steering wheel is also standard. If you want to extend the comfort, the available heated second row will do the trick.

Reason #4: Spacious Interior 

The 2026 Acura RDX might be a compact SUV, but there’s no shortage of space. Front-row passengers can enjoy 1,007 mm of headroom and 1,057 mm of legroom, while second-row occupants can enjoy 974 mm of headroom and 975 mm of legroom. The RDX also offers plenty of cargo space, with up to 881 litres of volume. You can customize the interior with the 60/40 split-folding rear seat.
