Acura
The 2020 Acura RDX enters dealerships as the retail best-selling compact luxury SUV in America, helping RDX set a new all-time annual sales record in 2018 and posting its tenth consecutive record month in March, 2019. The 2020 RDX arrives in showrooms nationally beginning tomorrow with a starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP1) of $37,600 (excluding $995 destination and handling).
The 2019 Acura RDX recently was named the "Best Compact Luxury SUV for Families" by U.S. News and World Report as well as a "Best New Car for 2019" by Autotrader. RDX's available ELS Studio 3D(TM) premium audio system was recognized as "Car Audio System of the Year" by Business Insider, while its industry-first True Touchpad Interface(TM) was named a "Best of What's New" technology for 2018 by Popular Science.
Featuring a new Platinum White exterior color for 2020, RDX carries forward the next generation of Acura design, performance and technology that debuted on the all-new 2019 model, including the popular A-Spec sport appearance package. RDX delivers an exceptional driving experience thanks in part to its 272-horsepower (SAE net) turbocharged i-VTEC(R) engine and available Acura Super-Handling All Wheel Drive(TM) (SH-AWD(R)), along with a class-leading array of standard premium features and technologies, including AcuraWatch(TM) safety and driver-assistive technology, an ultra-wide panoramic moonroof, next-generation Acura JewelEye(TM) LED headlights, and next-generation Acura sport seats. The 2020 RDX also includes the critically-acclaimed True Touchpad Interface(TM), Acura's groundbreaking user interface tailored around the driver. Also offered on RDX is the available ELS Studio 3D(TM) premium audio, a 16-channel, 710-watt system, featuring four ultra-slim Highline(TM) ceiling-mounted speakers to create a truly immersive listening experience.
The third-generation RDX has received the highest possible safety ratings of TOP SAFETY PICK+ (depending on selected headlights) from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and a 5-star Overall Vehicle Score from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and is expected to repeat this feat for the 2020 model year.
