The 2023 Acura MDX Type S: before you buy

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2023 Acura MDX Type S for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. This page helps you judge the 2023 Acura MDX Type S before you buy one anywhere.

Before you sign for the MDX

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 48 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train, forward collision avoidance and electrical system; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

Its powertrain is the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

It is rated at 12.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 36 litres. For 1,000 km, budget about $211.80 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,350 a year for 15,000 miles.

When the MDX makes sense

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

What to expect from the MDX

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

Rent it for a week first

A week with the MDX answers more than any brochure. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the MDX for a week and see how it fits your life.

Which one to look for

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Running costs

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.18 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $211.80 at our price setting.

The MDX and Farmbrook

Farmbrook is about 509 km from Toronto, outside our delivery area. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Farmbrook.
