Acura RDX Consumer Reviews Acura RDX Expert Reviews Acura RDX Photo Gallery 2010 Acura RDX FWD 5-speed AT w/Tech Specs By Bill Clark Pros : Fun to drive Voice activated navigation helps keeps eyes on the road Concert-hall 10-speaker stereo Luxuriously appointed interior Cons : FIRM ride That turbo is thirsty! Minimal cargo room Front fascia styling only a mother could love Just when I thought there was no hope for the crossover segment, Acura introduces the game-changing 2010 RDX with a fresh new exterior look, a more luxurious interior, and a host of new technology features. The 2010 RDX is now available with a two-wheel drive option which offers improved fuel economy and a lower price point over its SH-AWD™ counterpart. Styling OK, Acura…  Let’s get the bad out of the way so we can get on with the good stuff.  What’s the deal with your visual branding “power plenum grill” that has plagued your car line? You have damaged the looks of one of the most handsome lines of cars out there. I have not yet met anyone who thinks it’s attractive. Enough on that.  The rest of the exterior styling is great – the sheet metal looks very fluid and dramatic. The updates to the rear-end styling for 2010 are great.  Acura has really perfected the appearance from the rear. Driving Impressions All RDX models come with a 240 hp, 2.3L turbocharged, direct-injection, 4-cylinder engine with i-VTEC™ (intelligent Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control). I had the pleasure of driving the lighter-weight 2WD version. The ride is firm, but the RDX is quite nimble when slicing through the turns. I was impressed by how the RDX drives more like a sports sedan than an SUV. Potential RDX buyers will be elated to know that there is no significant loss of the driving feel when comparing the all-wheel drive system to the front-wheel drive alternative
