2023 Acura MDX vs. 2023 Volvo XC90 Performance
If you're a driving enthusiast craving punchy, athletic performance in your three-row SUV, the 2023 Acura MDX easily gets the nod over the new Volvo XC90. Indeed, the latest MDX packs a 3.5L V6 engine with a whopping 290 horsepower, and you can treat yourself to even more brawn with its available 3.0L direct-injection V6 with 355 horsepower. A 10-speed automatic transmission comes standard in the 2023 MDX with paddle shifters, with Super Handling All-Wheel Drive enhancing your traction and handling whenever you need it. In addition to its punchy powertrain, this Acura SUV boasts agile handling and responsive acceleration for a model of its size, but the 2023 Volvo XC90 isn't nearly as fun to drive. Indeed, this Volvo SUV's electrified hybrid powertrain packs over 40 horses less than the new MDX, and its drive isn't nearly as engaging or athletic as our Acura SUV's.
2023 Acura MDX vs 2023 Volvo XC90 Technology
When it comes to cabin technology, the 2023 MDX boasts a more comprehensive suite. This new Acura SUV comes standard with a 12.3-inch infotainment display, while the Volvo XC90 only offers a nine-inch touchscreen. Wireless smartphone integration, 4G Wi-Fi hotspot capability, Bluetooth connectivity, and wireless smartphone charging all come standard in the latest Acura MDX, with available navigation simplifying your family trips, and an in-cabin PA system allowing you to communicate with the family without taking your attention off the road. The 2023 MDX lineup also offers a variety of premium sound systems ranging from nine to a whopping 25 speakers. The 2023 Volvo XC90, by comparison, includes a user-friendly infotainment system and smartphone integration of its own, but functions like Wi-Fi hotspot capability come at a premium.
2023 Acura MDX vs 2023 Volvo XC90 Design
The new Acura MDX goes big and bold with its design, as it arrives with a striking front end including a Diamond Pentagon grille and Jewel Eye LED lighting, as well as sleek bodywork and a variety of aluminum-alloy wheel designs. The 2023 Volvo XC90 doesn't stand out like the MDX, with its clean bodywork and mature front end combining for an attractive, yet understated exterior. On the inside, the latest Acura MDX offers ample room across three rows and leatherette or genuine leather seating options, as well as comforts like climate-controlled and power-adjustable front seats, ambient lighting, heated second-row seats, and an available front massage function for upscale, personalized support and comfort on long drives. The 2023 Volvo XC90's interior is nothing to sneeze at, but while it includes a clean, elegant dash design and upscale appointments and materials, its third row is a little snug, and you'll have to pay a much heftier price than the new Acura MDX for it.
