The 2019 Acura MDX is a three-row luxury crossover SUV as stylish and sophisticated as it is capable on the road. The MDX comes in a traditional engine or a hybrid option with available AWD. Edmunds.com notes that “convenience and efficiency play a big part in vehicle utility and the Acura MDX capitalizes on the space it occupies.” The design, safety features, and driver-assistive technology make the MDX one of the safest SUVs on the road, with the highest safety ratings from the NHTSA and the IIHS.
Safety in the MDX begins with the Next Generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body Structure. The innovative design utilizes a complex network of structural elements that distributes frontal crash energy evenly around the MDX and around the occupants sitting inside the cabin. It also minimizes the amount of force transferred to the other vehicles involved, keeping everyone on the road safer.
The MDX includes important safety features including airbags and seat belts. These features might go unnoticed at first glance, but are there to keep you safe when you need them most.

AcuraWatch is a package of driver-assistive technology that includes systems that warn, prevent, and mitigate incidents on the road. The package is standard on every model of the MDX and includes the collision mitigation system that helped the MDX earn the Top Safety Pick+ title from the IIHS.

Starting with the Technology Package, the MDX comes equipped with a Blind Spot Information System with Rear Cross Traffic Monitor.

If the driver activates the turn signal and there is a vehicle in that zone, the icon light will flash to notify the driver that it is not safe to change lanes.
