Acura RDX for Sale with Turbo Performance and SH-AWD Capability
Finding a luxury compact SUV that handles Long Island's coastal weather, manages daily commutes to NYC, and delivers weekend family adventures takes more than checking boxes. At Acura of Huntington, we help professionals and families discover how the new Acura RDX balances turbocharged performance, intelligent safety technology, and real-world practicality.
Our team knows what local drivers need, and we'd love to have you browse our new Acura RDX inventory to see which configuration fits your lifestyle.
Why Long Island Drivers Choose the New Acura RDX
Long Island residents keep coming back to the RDX because it solves specific local driving challenges. The standard SH-AWD system delivers confident handling during unpredictable coastal weather, redistributing torque to individual wheels for better traction on wet roads and during surprise winter conditions.
Commuters love the 272-hp turbocharged engine's responsive acceleration for highway merges, plus the 27 MPG highway rating keeps fuel costs manageable during regular Manhattan runs. Families value the 31.1 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats. When the 60/40 split rear seats are folded, it expands to a maximum of 79.8 cubic feet. This makes it ideal for sports equipment, beach gear, and weekend supplies.
The comprehensive AcuraWatch safety suite provides extra confidence in busy parking lots and heavy traffic, while the RDX's strong resale value makes it a smart long-term investment.
Performance, Comfort, and Technology That Fits Your Lifestyle
The 2.0-liter turbocharged VTEC engine produces 272 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission that delivers smooth power whether you're navigating suburban streets or merging onto the LIE. The Integrated Dynamics System lets you adjust throttle response and transmission behavior, switching between Comfort, Normal, Snow, and Sport modes depending on your needs.
Standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration through the 10.2-inch HD display keeps you connected without cable fumbling, while the available ELS STUDIO 3D premium audio system transforms your commute. Every RDX includes blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alerts, essential when navigating crowded shopping centers and tight residential neighborhoods.
Commuter-Friendly Features and Ride Quality
Daily driving comfort starts with refined suspension tuning that absorbs road imperfections without sacrificing responsive handling. Heated front seats come standard for winter morning commutes, while available ventilated seats in higher trims provide relief during humid Long Island summers. Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow manages stop-and-go traffic, reducing fatigue during rush hour crawls on the Northern State Parkway or Route 495.
Cabin sound insulation keeps road noise minimal even at highway speeds, letting you enjoy podcasts or phone conversations through the hands-free Bluetooth system. The RDX achieves 21 MPG city and 27 MPG highway, translating to roughly 460 highway miles per tank.
Family-Ready Space and Safety Technology
The RDX's 104 cubic feet of interior volume accommodates five passengers comfortably, with 38 inches of rear legroom so teenagers can stretch out. The 31.1 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats handles weekly grocery runs, while folding the 60/40-split rear seats opens up 79.8 cubic feet for larger items like furniture or sports equipment.
AcuraWatch comes standard across all trims, including Collision Mitigation Braking with pedestrian detection that can automatically apply brakes if it senses an imminent collision. Road Departure Mitigation helps keep you centered in your lane, while Lane Keeping Assist provides gentle steering corrections. These systems work together to create multiple layers of protection for your family.
