Product Overview

Acura RDX 2 (chassis code TB3/4) is a mid-size crossover in production from 2013 to 2018. It was available with two tunes of the same J35Z2 V6 engine that displaced 3.5 liters.
Retaining the dimensions of the facelifted Mk1 RDX, the Mk2 uses a new 6-speed automatic transmission and is markedly more handsome in exterior design. It still uses the same car-like suspension setup, though it gains some offroad clearance. Utility-minded owners will also love the 2178L (77cu-ft) cargo space.
