that has crowned the MDX the best-selling three-row luxury SUV
of all time. Such is the power of Precision Crafted Performance.

21 \ PERFORMANCE
MDX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD with Advance Package shown in Performance Red Pearl.
YOUR FAVORITE ROAD IS WAITING
Everyone has their favorite road, and usually, that favorite road is full of twists and turns and is empty of traffic.
The next time you visit, bring along the perfect ally: the MDX with category-defining available Super Handling
All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD). Through an innovative torque-vectoring system, power is instantly distributed to the
wheels in relation to the driver’s actions and available traction at each wheel, providing a stable platform for
superior performance and control during high-performance driving. Should your favorite road surprise you with
a rainstorm, a gravel corner, or a dusting of snow, SH-AWD is capable of making sure the road remains a favorite,
no matter what challenges Mother Nature might add.
Cornering
When cornering on dry surfaces, up to 70 percent of
the torque is distributed to the rear. Torque vectoring
allows up to 100 percent of that power to distribute to
the outside rear wheel, improving control and helping
rotate the MDX through the turn.
Slippery Road
Under slick conditions, SH-AWD actively sends power
to the wheel with the most traction.
Lane Change
For increased stability during lane changes, the
SH-AWD system transfers power to the inside
rear wheel.
Highway Cruise
For better fuel efficiency, up to 90 percent of the
power is sent to the front wheels when cruising in
a straight line.

SPORT
HYBR ID
SH-AWD
Cornering
When cornering, the rear Twin Motor Unit (TMU)
allows for instant torque transfer side to side in the
rear, independently applying positive or negative
torque to each wheel. This torque-vectoring effect
directly controls the yaw (rotation around a vertical
axis), twisting the MDX through corners, tightening its
line, and precisely tracing the driver’s desired path.
Slippery Road
Sport Hybrid SH-AWD monitors speed, wheelspin,
driver input, and more to actively and instantly
distribute power to the wheels with the most traction
or send negative torque to a specific wheel to act as
a stabilizing force.
Acceleration
From a standstill, Sport Hybrid SH-AWD uses
the rear electric motors to deliver torque instantly,
translating to dramatic acceleration off the line.
During light acceleration, only the rear twin electric
motors operate; under more aggressive acceleration,
the gasoline engine and all three electric motors kick
in simultaneously to maximize performance.
Highway Cruise
At low cruising speeds, the system can operate in
electric-only mode, with power being sent to only the
rear wheels. At higher speeds, up to 100 percent of
the power is sent to the front wheels when cruising in
a straight line.
MDX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD with Advance Package
shown in White Diamond Pearl.
Regeneration
When braking, coasting, or cornering, the ever-
efficient system captures kinetic energy and uses
it to recharge its advanced lithium-ion battery.
PERFORMANCE KNOWS NO LIMITS
And neither does the MDX Sport Hybrid, thanks to our groundbreaking, electric-torque-vectoring Sport Hybrid
Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system born from NSX supercar technology. So passionate we are
to innovate past what we think is possible, we took the same SH-AWD technology we developed for the NSX,
including the Twin Motor Unit (TMU) and battery pack, and engineered it into the MDX. Powered by a V-6
engine and three high-output electric motors perfectly mated to an incredibly responsive 7-speed Dual-Clutch
Transmission, the electric Sport Hybrid SH-AWD system does what almost no other AWD system can do:
It optimizes power distribution, even when the driver is not on the throttle. It’s instinctive performance that
creates an intimacy between driver and road most likely unmatched in any other SUV.
MAKE THE MOST OF ALL THE HORSEPOWER
Choose your desired driving mode—Comfort, Normal, Sport and, additionally,
in the Sport Hybrid, Sport+—and the MDX’s Integrated Dynamics System (IDS)
personalizes its technology for you. In Sport mode, the SH-AWD system and
throttle are put on notice to offer up much more aggressive responses. In the
MDX Sport Hybrid’s Sport+ mode, EV-only operation is paused, and maximum
launch is achieved through full, unrestrained battery power. Additionally, in the
MDX Sport Hybrid, in both Sport and Sport+ modes, the Active Damper System
limits body roll for a stiffer and more precise reaction to the driver’s desires.

WHEN IT
MATTERS
MOST
ADVANCED COMPATIBILITY ENGINEERING
The safest collision is the one you avoid. That’s reason enough to consider the high-performance MDX with
standard AcuraWatch advanced safety and driver-assistance technology; however, some collisions are unavoidable.
That’s why Acura’s next-generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure was designed
to absorb and disperse frontal impact energy more evenly around the vehicle, so less of it transfers to what really
matters: the car’s occupants. Moreover, frontal crash compatibility is designed into the structure, so in the event
of a collision with a smaller or larger vehicle, the occupants of both vehicles, not just those in the Acura, are more
protected. But we didn’t stop there. We innovated the structure around the doors, making them four to five times
stronger than traditional-grade automotive steel through laser welding, hot stamping, and the use of ultra-high-
strength steel, all to improve cabin strength and the chance of literally walking out the door after impact.
The MDX received the highest possible overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA)* and is a 2018 Top Safety Pick from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).

OWNER BENEFITS

the same caliber. After all, a premium automobile is only part of the ownership experience. With Acura, you also
get a commitment: to personalized care, to attentive service. This commitment is apparent the moment you first
enter an Acura dealership and for years down the road. It comes from a belief that every aspect of owning an
Acura should be an enjoyable and rewarding experience.

All Acura vehicles and any Acura Genuine Accessories
installed by the dealer at the time of vehicle purchase
have a four-year/50,000-mile limited warranty. Acura
