2022 Acura MDX vs. 2022 Infiniti QX60

As far as upscale three-row SUVs go, you'll be hard-pressed to find a more attractive option than the 2022 Acura MDX now available at Maple Acura. This stunning new Acura enters the 2022 model year with a sporty, elegant exterior design, a spacious cabin with plenty of amenities, a robust powertrain, and loads of safety technology. Now that it's joined our new inventory, we've taken the time to compare the latest MDX to a redesigned rival in the Infiniti QX60. Whether you're based in Maple, Mississauga, Vaughan, or North York, Ontario, find out how Acura's new MDX fares against its Infiniti foe below before visiting Maple Acura to make it yours.

Interior Comfort & Convenience Comparison:

The 2022 Acura MDX's style is as compelling on the inside as it is on the outside. This refined SUV boasts a completely reimagined design, offering a cabin with available metal, open-pore wood, and piano black accents, as well as a French-stitched leather dash for the MDX's upper trims. Not only is the 2022 MDX generous in quality, upscale materials, it also seats seven passengers comfortably across three rows of supportive seating. This Acura SUV also offers plenty of standard and available creature comforts, including a memory system for its power-adjustable front seats, tri-zone synchronized automatic climate control, interior accent lighting, and leatherette or genuine leather upholstery.

The 2022 Infiniti QX60, by comparison, gets a redesign of its own for the new model year. This SUV also seats up to seven passengers, although its third row is a little cramped, and while the QX60 offers upscale materials and various comforts, it finds itself a step behind the MDX. Indeed, this Infiniti offers standard dual-zone automatic climate control as opposed to the Acura MDX's tri-zone system, as well as front seats with less power-adjustable range than the MDX.

Performance Comparison:

A standard 3.5-litre V6 engine powers the 2022 Acura MDX with a solid 290 horses, with an available turbocharged V6 packing a whopping 355 horsepower. A smooth and responsive 10-speed automatic gearbox replaces the nine-speed transmission of old, while Acura's patented Super Handling All-Wheel Drive ensures that you enjoy a surefooted ride and optimal stability under various conditions. This Acura SUV also comes with an Integrated Dynamics System that allows you to tailor the MDX's ride to your mood and needs. Whatever your preferences and driving habits, the 2022 MDX will treat you to swift acceleration and exceptionally athletic handling for a model of its size and segment.

As for the 2022 QX60, this Infiniti SUV packs a good bit of power in its base V6 engine, which pairs with a new nine-speed automatic transmission. Unlike the Acura MDX, you'll have to pay a premium for all-wheel drive in the Infiniti QX60, and while it has a knack for comfortable cruising, its ride lands a little on the stiff side, making it better suited for parents and errand-runners than driving enthusiasts.

Safety Features Comparison:

This year's MDX carries on the Acura tradition with a varied and comprehensive suite of safety and driver-assist features. In addition to popular functions like Forward Collision Warning and a Collision Mitigation Braking System that detects pedestrians, the 2022 Acura MDX safety suite boasts a Lane Departure Warning system with steering wheel feedback, Road Departure Mitigation, Traffic Jam Assist, and a Blind Spot Information system. If you want nothing more than a comfortable cruise, the Acura MDX can oblige with Adaptive Cruise Control, which comes with Low-Speed Follow and maintains a pre-set speed and distance from vehicles ahead. As for its Infiniti rival, the 2022 QX60 offers the basics in terms of safety technology, but you'll have to go out of pocket to enjoy functions that come standard in the MDX, namely Adaptive Cruise Control.
