Acura MDX vs Lexus RX 350
Serving Clearwater, Tampa, Largo, St. Petersburg, Palm Harbor, FL
If you're in the market for a mid- to high-end SUV, you've come to the right place! Crown Acura is proud to recommend both the 2016 Acura MDX and the 2016 Lexus RX 350 as excellent vehicles in this category - but when it comes to values and features, there is a clear winner among the two. The 2016 Acura MDX is a truly unique vehicle in its class and offers the driver and passengers of the vehicle a smooth, luxurious, and comfortable ride for a very reasonable price tag and with a very long working lifespan. Let's take a look at some of the factors that separate the two vehicles from each other and help the Acura stand out.
Seating Capacity
When it comes to SUVs, the more space you have to make use of, the better - and the more people you can carry, the better! The Acura MDX offers seating capacity for seven as opposed to the Lexus's five person capacity, helping make sure you've always got enough room for kids and their friends. You'll never notice having more seats than you need, but you'll certainly notice having too few - the convenience that an extra pair of seats offers is a major selling point on any SUV, and especially helps the Acura stand out from the Lexus.
Interior Design
The Acura offers a significantly wider and therefore more comfortable ride to its passengers than the Lexus. While the latter is certainly no slouch in this area with 56.6 inches of front hip room and 57.8 inches of front shoulder room, the Acura offers a powerful 59.0 inches and 61.1 inches in those categories, respectively - and that extra bit of space can help make all the difference between an average ride and a truly enjoyable one. Additionally, with a rear hip room space of 57.8 inches in the Acura and 56.1 in the Lexus, as well as rear shoulder room of 59.1 inches for the Acura and 57.6 for the Lexus, one can easily see the difference in the riding experience between the two - not only is there the capacity to carry more passengers in the Acura, there's also more width if you're riding with the same number of passengers.
Cargo Capacity
If you're not considering an SUV for the seating capacity, you're probably in the market for a vehicle with some pretty serious cargo capacity - and neither the Acura nor the Lexus disappoints in this area. With a maximum cargo capacity of 56.3 cubic feet in the Lexus RX 350, you'll be able to carry a solid amount of cargo in that SUV - but in the Acura MDX, you'll be able to make do with a 68.4 cubic foot maximum cargo capacity. With over a whopping 12 more cubic feet of cargo capacity available in the Acura, the winner here is clear - and you'll be happy to work with the increased space and efficiency this setup allows.
Crown Acura is looking forward to helping you pick out the best SUV for your needs, and wants to show you how the 2016 Acura MDX is a cut above. Call us or stop by to schedule your own test drive today - we're looking forward to showing you this powerful and spacious new vehicle from Acura!
