We recently purchased the Acura RDX and I love it. I found the NX to be smaller and it does not react and drive like the RDX.

RDX 10/10 times. The NX is definitely impressive though!

I love my 2021 tech RDX. It is a really nice vehicle. Thanks for this review.

How can anyone say the RDX is not luxurious? The advance RDX literally has real milano leather A/C seats with 16 way power adjustment and contrast piping. Real hand carved wood accents, soft touch leather and alcantera. Acoustic glass, panoramic sunroof, 360. Ire cameras, etc Literally one of the most luxurious feeling seats I’ve sat in. I have owned 2 Lexus before and an Audi. Even the steering wheel in the RDX is fully heated all around, the Lexus only heats the 10 and 2 areas of the steering wheel. I got used to the touchpad in the RDX in a few hours and now it’s easy to use, and no ugly smudges on the screen!

Thanks for all your great reviews. One very important advantage RDX has is SH-AWD. This incredible system allows for superior snow driving capabilities.

I was excited about the new NX until I started adding up the prices. I'll be interested in seeing the 2022 pricing for the A-Spec AND Advance packages here in the U.S.

Lovely couple. Thanks for the review. 👍🏼👍🏼

I will say I owned an Acura with the push button shifter for 3 years and absolutely loved it. I never once put it into the wrong gear and it’s so simple because every button feels different. I now own a car with a rotatory shifter and have only had it for a little over a month and have put it into the wrong gear at least 10 times.

Brilliant comparison review

Loved the video. Would have liked a bit more thorough comparison of the driving experience. I’m currently in an ES hybrid and cross shopping these two. The available hybrid in the Lexus has me leaning that direction but the interior in the 2022 RDX is head and shoulders more “special” feeling in my opinion. This is a hard one.

The two models I would look at are the RDX AWD with technology package v the NX 350 AWD maybe luxury package (I like the 14" screen and heads up display). The price difference is around US $6,000 however and I don't like the lack of a spare tire on the NX. The previous NX was too small for my tastes; am curious about the 2022 model.

I would buy another RDX, A Specs again but I want the adaptative suspension for a smoother ride...

I wiould still lean toward the NX because of the fact that it’s 3 inches shorter than the RDX. The RDX is about the same length as my 2010 RX. It’s a tight fit in my garage for my RX so I would like my next car to be a little bit shorter for easier ingress in my garage! Also, I like that you get a power tilt steering wheel in the NX

Lexus for life :) great video guys

I had the NX and sold it. Too small. Just purchased a new RDX and it's so much better. Love the way it drives. Not crazy about the track pad, but once you get it set up, you really don't have to deal with it much. Apple Carplay is wireless and I can just talk to it and not touch the pad. But when I do have to use the trackpad, it is easy after a few tries to figure out where to touch on the trackpad.

Still enjoying my 2018 RDX tech package! The last generation of V6 engine. Average gas mileage is 9.3L/100km. Tested 2022 Aspec, love it too!

The Acura RDX refresh will substantially update the model range and it will look more substantial sitting next to the new Lexus NX350. The RDX is priced better than the NX350 too which will resonate i think with more buyers, especially here in Canada. Overall I really like the new NX350 and am impressed by its new styling and interior design as well.

I'd prefer hard buttons for climate controls on the RDX over the NX touchscreen climate controls

coming back to this almost 2 years later and the RDX and NX are the same price now in pretty much base to top.

The Acura RDX is by far, the best value option in this class. It's larger, looks way better, and is much cheaper than the Lexus NX. The base RDX comes loaded. Going up in trims is a waste of money in my opinion. The base RDX is 12k cheaper than a similar optioned Lexus NX in Canada. Although the track pad may not be the best, I prefer it over the cheap Toyota looking touchpad of the Lexus NX. The Lexus also comes with run flats which make the ride noisier and the door handles are weird to operate.

Hard to beat the value, utility, and the sportiness of the RDX. Lexus if luxury is higher on your list. Acura has one of the best 4 season bang-for-the-buck awd systems for its TLX, RDX, and MDX vehicles. I really wish Acura would bring back the hybrid in Sport Hybrid like the 17-20 MDX/14-20 RLX and/or plug-in hybrid forms.

RDX is the value choice of its class, even if the touchpad infotainment is the most annoying execution in any modern cars. On the other hand, Lexus has abandoned the poor infotainment design of previous generation of products. Given this important aspect, I would choose the NX.

I am a hugh Honda & Acura fan. I have the 2022 MDX and I love it. Here is where I think the problem lies in terms of the infotainment system. Most companies will look at competitors and say, "They all have 9" screen, let's do the same". What they are forgetting is most might today, but in a couple of years that 9" screen will only remain in their cars while the competition has moved on. Acura has a habit of doing cosmetic tweeks to their refresh while some brands like the Genesis and Germans brands do a bit more. This car needs the MDX size infotainment screen with option of touch and the MDX should have it even better. As far as the driving dynamics, the Acura is better IMO. Acura is for a boy and Lexus is for the dad. Both refined but for a bit different generation of anthusiasts

That's interesting because if I were to calculate the cost of a fully loaded A-Spec RDX, it comes down to 52k USD. Similarily, The NX 350 would come down to around 47k if I optioned it out similarly to RDX. Maybe they are more expensive in Canada. Just an FYI, I am referring to the 2022 NX F Sport 350. The Plugin Hybrid models are going to be nearing the 60k mark but then again, the whole tax breaks plays a part in that.

Yep in Canada the NX 350 fully loaded vs the Elite A spec RDX. The RDX is almost $10,000 cheaper. I find that in Canada the RDX is way more for your $ than it is in the USA; and in Canada the difference between trims isn't huge. Only downside.. is aspec+ has heated steering and thats almost a need in Canada. If the tech package had it, it would be the best value hands down.

How the hell in the us the price is only $1000 yet in Canada the difference is 10 times bigger

Lexus also missed the point by not making it 2-3” longer.

Love the RDX. But it’s a gas guzzler.

I'm sorry but that $10K difference in price is worth it. It's reliability is 10% higher in Lexus, retained value after 5 years is higher for Lexus, the tech and engine choices are much more for Lexus. You get more for your money in Lexus than RDX. 😉

As for the engineering, it's a matter of "what have you done for me lately?". No question, HMG is banging out better products than Honda these days.

When you look at the US prices, the RDX and NX are pretty close together, but once you go Canadian, there is a huge discrepancy between the RDX and the NX. What's up with that?

Crazy pricing!

Acura for me

But the NX hybrid is cheaper than the NX350, with a bit less power but much more efficient. That's the one to get.

Hybrid is going to be more expensive to insure and repair. And doesn't retain their value as much. It's similar to that of electric vehicle problems. Sad to say because I would love to see the push for electric cars but still at this time.. its not financially worth it yet.

The RDX base is Leatheretteit, All the above trims have real leather and the A-Spec has Premium full-grain Milano Leather seating surfaces with Ultrasuede. Toyota is notorious for using Leatheretteit, because it's less maintenance, durable and cheaper.. Now please get your fact straight also the RDX has a bigger cargo area 30 ci versus the NX with 22 Ci. I have a 2019 A-Spec so I know what I purchased. I love Lexus don't get me wrong, I have a 92 LS 400 mint condition. It has real leather in it. Now for real city driving not that Canada city. The RDX is crap 8 to 12 in NYC. Highway the care get 28 to 31. I have a very light foot and leave the car in comfort mode. Don't need to jet from red light to red light and the speed limit is now 25 MPH with red light cameras all around. Now for the real truth good luck on getting and deals on any car. A good deal is now s MRSP, all are over way over MSRP. There are not cars.

22 Acura is good-looking. Lexus front always is the ugliest among all cars or suv.

RDX hands down. Much quicker, more space inside and costs a lot less. Lexus is very overpriced for what you get.

@K R because NX has 250 trim (200t in older gen) to start from. The NX350 starts with higher price than a base RDX

I like NX cos it looks better than the RDX😀

That is a reason I got the NX, but I realize that you don’t drive the car from outside the car. Actually, if I had to do it over, I would get the CV 70. The RDX pipes even more fake loud engine noise though the inside compartment. The Acura is a bit more fun to drive, a little bit quicker, a little bit roomier and a little bit cheaper. So that is why on a do over, I would not get the RDX. The Genesis is a better handling (I hate the front wheel drive bias on both the Jap cars, especially the RDX), quicker and overall more fun to drive. Granted, it will depreciate faster and it might not be quite a reliable.

AWD system is very important if you leave on snowing areas Toyota system no thanks on crossovers

RDX 👍✌️

Difference is still the same between Honda and Toyota sporty vs classic

Rdx then Rdx

The Buick Envision 2.0T is putting down a faster 27.5s figure-8 time vs 2019 CX-5 2.5T and 2019 RDX 2.0T at 27.7 in Motor Trend testing. That continues in an Emergency Lane test by Consumer Reports that has the Envision 2.0T doing 55.5 mph while the CX-5(non-turbo) did 54 mph and the RDX 2.0T can only go 52.5 mph. For 2019 Envision 2.0T gets a new 9-speed and 295 lb-ft of torque, 316 lb-ft of torque on overboost. The twin clutch and torque vectoring AWD is something that Mazda cannot match only able to use brakes on a single on a wheel for torque vectoring. The Hiperstrut, as also seen on Honda Civic Type-R as dual axis strut, eliminates any torque steer under accleration. At a discounted $35K the Envision Prem ll offers heads up display, adaptive high beams and articulating HID, adaptive cruise control with full stopping, tri-zone climate control, sliding rear seat, 12-volt outlet, along with Buick's longer warranty than Mazda.

It’s worth $10k ($5k USD 🤗) to not use the RDX trackpad. 😬 When I look at longevity of use and enjoyment -the RDX is not it. Which is disappointing because I’ve been waiting on the 2022 RDX in the hopes of them phasing out the track pad. 🥺 Needless to say, I have preordered the NX.

Base NX350, $41k Full loaded RDX, $48k How can you get fully loaded RDX with the same money as Base NX350?
