2002 Acura MDX Preview summaryImage

In its sophomore year on the luxury SUV market, the 2002 Acura MDX saw few changes. The base engine remained a 3.5-liter V6 rated at 240 horsepower and 245 lb-ft of torque. The interior retained its plush leather feel, complete with what some consider to be excessive wood trim.

The width of the 2002 MDX remains quite wide, at 77 inches. When driving this SUV, be sure to keep a close eye on those around you...not much room for error when your car is over 6 feet wide.

The drive is quite smooth, and drivers love its combination of luxury and off-road capability. Some criticize the mileage estimates, reporting that it gets well under the advertised 17/23 city/highway. Of course, the problem is that the engine feels peppy enough to make you want to floor it at times, which burns a lot of gas. =)

Great car, comfortable. Off road capable. The more you drive it the more you love it! Still looks new when clean. Photo is after going up Pike's Peak in a blizzard with five people and no issues. Great all-around vehicle.Aug 14, 2010

horrible shifting more lights on than park o2 sensors vtm4. light this car is truly a rip off. cost a lot and works to get around but the fake o2 SR and vtm4 sensors are not worth fixing cause they come back in in another 1500 miles laterJan 27, 2010
