"If you can deal with the limited amount of cargo space, then you should look at the RDX just from a performance perspective. In road tests, we've found that the Acura RDX drives like a sport sedan. It's quick and extremely nimble through corners. The turbocharged engine is a thrill and makes the RDX exciting to drive, providing 0-60-mph times in the high-6-second range. On the downside, the RDX's EPA fuel estimates are barely average for this segment, and the turbocharged engine requires 91-octane fuel."—Edmunds.com review³

"The 2008 Acura RDX is a sharp-looking compact crossover SUV that offers a phenomenal all wheel drive system, an appealing upscale contemporary style interior and a powerful turbocharged engine-all of which present an interesting challenge to the likes of the BMW X3."—Car Seek review⁴
