2022 Acura MDX

tire

my 18 tlx a-spec V6 had zero 80,000 trouble free miles the only thing I replace was batteries and tires.

but it controls engine and wind noise so well that you hear a lot of droning tire noise which gets annoying.

What I don’t love is the crazy amounts of tire noise on some surfaces on the OEM tires.

The Bad: Tires are louder than they should be.

radio

The radio will just stop working for no reason.

So when I am a passenger in the car, I can not use the phone at all, otherwise the XM radio turns off (I’m not trying to play any audio or video on the phone, just checking email will turn off XM).

battery

I ended up disconnecting the battery to do a hard reset and it seemed to work fine after that.

Nothing would get it to open again except disconnecting the battery and trying again.

The auto heating and cooling is not so great with comparison to my 2016 highlander

Either way, very cheap vent parts that will definitely break off if a knee hits them sliding in/pushing on them from the middle seat.

mileage

the mileage is 19-21 since I like to drive with a little pep.

milage on 2022 not as good as 2020. much quieter and stiffer than 2020.

Vehicle travels a lot lower per gallon estimated mileage than shown on the window sticker.

It is constantly searching for the right gear at speeds under 55-60 mph.

- Panoramic roof is gorgeous 

Cons:
- Gas mileage isn’t that great,

While I miss the gas mileage @5-27 regularly, and overall power of the Hybrid (it was definitely faster) I LOVE the ride of my 2022.

turn-handling

As for handling and ride, Acura has always excelled,

Latest model handles better, more safety features and best sound system i've ever heard in any vehicle.

You will have to turn the car off, and restart for it to work.

It's plush without feeling too floaty and when you change your drive mode, you can still whip this thing in and out of corners with ease.

I also like the cargo area flexibility and in particular love how you can turn the area behind the third row into a deeper cargo well rather than one that is flush with the door or turn it into secure storage for camera equipment or a computer, etc.

I had to turn off the car and turn it back on with the key.

but after you drive it for a while you will realize it handles extremely well for a large vehicle, but it makes you comfortable as it performs.

The touchpad is a learning curve and isn't the best.

ride

Wife has a 2017 MDX and the '22 has a significantly upgraded interior with all the latest technology, while improving on the ride and driving experience.

The ride is super smooth and reasonably quiet.

Purchased a 2022 MDX Advance SH-AWD a week and half ago and I have to say that this is by far the most comfortable ride I have been in.

Cabin is very quiet, comfortable ride, and tech is great for the segment.

I love the technology, the ride, the looks, and how practical the cargo space is.

This car is beautiful and its rides excellent .

comfortable

The seats are insanely comfortable, excellent for highway cruising or around town.

but also performed great, comfortable and enjoyable to drive.

Seats on the leather suede combo very comfortable.

We want to feel comfortable driving anywhere in any weather.

The rear sitting areas are equally comfortable.

It’s plush, comfortable, and feels solid.

interior

The interior (with the exception of all the piano gloss black trim is stellar).

The leather interior is a big improvement.

I think the car looks beautiful and modern inside and out which is why we bought it.

I really do love the look of the car inside and out.

Interior mood lights pretty cool and the headlights and fogs are very bright.

A Hyundai Tuscan has a nicer interior and better tech than this.

We really like the new aesthetic redesigns on the exterior and interior--dramatic improvement.

I think they could have done a better job of creating interior storage for small items.

The pros to the SUV is it looks nice from the outside and it looks great on the inside.

2021 Honda Civic

I, bought this car just to get good gas mileage and to have a nice car that is low maintenance cost.

Really nice car that handles great, and has a good value reputation.

fuel

It's a fun car to drive being a small turbo type of car.

Nice stereo system with apple car play to enjoy the music.

Definitely affordable and it's a fun car to drive.

This car is fantastic and it's been fun driving it.

These cars are alot of fun driving around.

Nice interior, cool side view mirror camera.

Classy look with nice interior design inside.

2022 Hyundai Tucson Plug-In Hybrid

phone

Haven't been able to get Android Auto to work more than once, and dealer wasn't helpful in figuring out the issue.

From what I read the only real negatives should be the upgraded 10.25 touchscreen info system which will not have wireless apple Carplay&#47;Android Auto.

It is wonderful for us and the planet to average the equivalent of 60+ MPG.

Gas mileage is advertised at 29 mixed driving.

So far, getting 37 mph city , and 35 mph highway.

I own gas version not hybrid and put premium gas per manual and getting excellent gas mileage per gallon and smooth transmissions.

I really enjoyed the gas mileage and the fact that I didn't have to fill up often.

Headlights are bright and consistent, and stretch wide enough to see the sides of the road without blinding others or turning on the brights.

The rear turn indicators are low and the bumper.

It handles well, is quiet at lower speeds;( with exception of noisy backup alert).

The car felt very stable cornering (sends power to rear wheels when cornering) even fully loaded.

but would have been nice to have adaptive headlights or fog lights for better cornering at night.

feature

For the price, value, and especially the maintenance package and warranty, I would definitely do it all over again.

Have the SEL premium package gas Tucson since November and I love the interior features of the car!

Selected this over the RAV4 mainly for the technology, features, and design.

Wireless CarPlay and all convenience package features are worth it.

Features, style, comfortable ride and performance.

The panaroma sunroof and safety features make it so enjoyable to drive.

The features bring you enjoyment to keep you in the car a long time.

The Blue trim Wireless AndroidAuto &#47; AppleCarplay is a beauty (AndroidAuto has more features)

Easy to drive, like all the new to me features.

This car also has “smart park” which is a cool feature

The car is very comfortable, has great tech and safety features, and looks so stylish and sleek on the exterior.

Leather seats are super comfortable and the heat and ac features work in minutes.

I am really enjoying my new  Hyundai Tucson SE front wheel drive, it is so smooth on the road and really comfortable.

Quiet, comfort, power, space, general fit &#38; finish are all very well done.

Tall people will not be comfortable in the RAV4.

Luxury, safety, comfort, roomy, great warranties and a fun ride.

The entire trip was amazing, smooth, quite, and comfortable.

I did shop around some other brands and this new model was a lot more comfortable, quieter, and spacious than most of its competitors.

It’s beautiful, has plenty of power, and has enabled us to cut our fossil fuel use and cost by more than 50 percent.

Fuel economy has slowly been improving as it get further along its break in.

Other point 9ve noticed is that fuel economy suffers in the colder weather.

It’s very annoying to have to constantly feel like you’re having to get gas on long trips.

2022 Mitsubishi Outlander

noise

Another reviewer said something about the hood vibration.

Electrical issue 
Door panel coming off 
Suspension noise
Stop on middle of the road

Only issue we have ran into with the vehicle thus far is the rattling&#47;moving hood while on highways.

Like the previous review about the hood vibrating at high speeds, took it to the dealership and already had the rubber cushioning correcting kit to fix the issue.

speed

I did find it seemed to be underpowered coming off ramps to merge at highway speeds, again it's just fine in normal mode, or Sport (Tarmac).

If you don't drive at highway speeds and you live where the wind never exceeds 15 miles per hour you'll be in love with this car.

but great for city living with great gas mileage and really great space with all seats down.

This car is very fuel efficient, I been doing an average of 29-32 MPG which is quite similar to my last fuel efficient mirage .

As for me, I live in a windy area and drive the 75 mph interstate every time I leave the house.

If you don't take the wheel, it will turn off any auto "things" you may have turned on (cruise, adaptive lane control, ect) and will start decelerating (great safety feature for those who fall asleep at the wheel).

but it’s more safe on curve and look good.

The handling is good and responsive and the ride is smooth

To get everything you want on this ride, in the colors you want is a needle in a haystack.

No bad cvt transmission, almost drive like automatic transmission , big wheels filling more the ride

I wanted the AWD launch version, with the super cool seats and interior stitching,

Mitsubishi made the interior very classy and clean, &#38; the exterior looks amazing as well, especially with the word  'outlander' written above the grill&#47; frontof hood.

The interior is very comfortable, it almost looks luxurious.

In these modes it does a great "giddy up go", and can accelerate impressively, with a deduction in your fuel (from the instant fuel gauge monitoring).

2022 Kia Sorento

On the positive side:  It drives beautifully smooth, does get good mileage

The mileage is good for an AWD, at 22 city and 27 highway.

This feels more solid on cornering than the 2018 Tiguan I had, which was much lower to the ground.

Handles the 1.5 mile hilly dirt road to my house, even in the rain and mud, with no problem.

I got Sx trim with the white pearl paint and man do I regret not getting the top trim for more features.

Moon roof is huge, which I absolutely love, all the safety features are great, really really love the look of this car, very aggressive and sexy looking!

The 2022 Sorento has memory seats, which was missing from the 2021 model and is a great feature when you have multiple drivers.

But the comfort of this car is wildly insane.

Inside is very comfortable and well thought out!

It’s so fun to drive and the seats are super comfortable for trips.

The 100,000 mile limited powertrain warranty gives me comfort, as does the bumper to bumper 60k warranty.

Very comfortable and roomy (even the third row if you’re a kid!

safety

Safety features are number one for me because I’m driving around with my new born on the back.

The most notable is the heads-up display, which I find to be a great safety feature on the Telluride.

2021 Toyota Venza

But I wasn't crazy for the stiff rides and the wind noise due to the height.

It is almost like metal piece rattling in the cargo area.

On highways, I noticed very little wind noise,

It make very very little sound or vibration when the gas motor starts/stops.

A little more road noise than I would;d like.

I noticed that when I play the radio a little too loud, the bass makes the dashboard buzz.

I am very disappointing with the 2021 Venza Driving Feel, I bought my Venza in December 17, 2020 and from the very beginning I heard the noise produced by the hybrid system (dealer technician said),

I have had  my car insulated to cut down on the road noise, thinking that was the issue.

Other than that the interior started squeaking after less than 3 months and 3k miles.

engine

though this car is a 4 cylinder, it does not feel underpowered at all and it zips around town with no issues.

I like how the engine shuts off coasting, braking, or stopped at a light.

no clunk when the engine turns off at a light like my wife's E350.

Perhaps the biggest compliment other than a droning engine when pushed hard is that you don't even realize you're driving a hybrid most of the time.

The start/stop of the engine does not bother me at all,

Not powerful or refined engine under hard acceleration as my 2014 Toyota Highlander XLE.

I have the 2021 Venza XLE I cannot get anymore than 41 liters of gas in it, and I run it down to where it says 20 KL left, anyone else have this problem, Toyota is doing nothing

navigation

Poor POI, tricky routing compared to smartphone, and sometimes hazardous paths: it led me to an UNBUILT ramp in Corpus Christi on 65mph which could be fatal if I was driving at nighttime and trusted the navigation.

The voice activated navigation is problematic at times.

The touch screen for the map does not appear on the entire 12” screen like in world like for it to.

Also, nav & upgraded audio not worth the upcharges.

It’s NOT as quiet as a Lexus  

Cons:
#Worst navigation system I’ve ever seen.

brake

We love everything about our Venza except , occasionally upon applying the brakes we hear a loud sound like metal banging.

The wind noise breaks into the interior just after 40mph and driving 70 on a highway in addition to buzzing from the wheels on a large-fraction asphalt or whistling on a concrete will make you head blow in just couple of hours.

After several failed attempts and the brake pedal going to the floor, I got out of the car, locked it, then re-entered and this time it worked properly.

A few times the Venza does not going to gear and I had to press the brake pedal again.

From the first week I had the BMW, I had issues with the brakes, the electronics, total engine shutdown, and the list goes on.

In the owner's manual, it says that the Venza is not designed for off-roading (off-road only if unavoidable) and that snow chains cannot be mounted (mine has the bigger tires).

It's not bothered by extreme cross winds, snow, ice, slush, heavy rain - if you have the right tires.

It may be the Bridgestone eco tires, which I’ll eventually switch out to a better riding tire.

Although I got 55 mpg, in eco mode, going 7 miles to my grocery store in flat terrain, it was a boring ride.

Great gas mileage, avg 39 miles per gallon

It’s a comfortable ride, gets phenomenal gas mileage and love my stargaze roof.

It is quiet, rides exceptionally smooth, 45.4 MPG, Sirius XM radio, 1st class power hatch, nice wheels, very comfortable seats, nice leather steering wheel, ect. .

Buy it because it's a hybrid, love it if you're willing to give up some gas mileage and have some real fun.

Great mileage so far, do not visit the gas station every week.

My overall gas mileage is 46.7 which is outstanding.

Learning curve with all of the technology.

You can feel the engine turn on and disengage periodically when you are driving the car,

The front turn signals on the other hand are really nice looking.

It handles well and while Toyota’s safety features can be annoying, it’s practically self-driving on cruise.

The car rides very well - probably as good as a Lexus - and better than my wife's 2019 RAV4 XLE Supreme, which is extremely nice, and handles fine.

The Venza handles well - very predictably - no surprises.

It handles good and has plenty of pick up speed.

The styling is great and love the way it handles.

the inside is luxurious, so comfortable and very quiet.

The heated, ventilated seats are comfortable the vehicle is sharper in appearance than a Lexus and I just can't get over how much fun it is to drive.

The front seats are very comfortable and I love the ventilated seat option.

Smooth ride, comfortable with great features.

Feels roomier inside than the Limited Rav and most definitely a more comfortable ride.

The interior looks amazing and feels comfortable.

The seats are the most comfortable I ever sat in.

A comfortable and quiet ride was a priority, as we were coming from a Lexus RX350.

You have three options economy 39.8 miles to the gallon without trying.

I knew I would never use moonroof, I was really happy to find a car with so many features without moonroof.

This vehicle is packed with luxury features like parking sensors, power folding mirrors, and memory seat.

Many of the tech features are easier to understand after reading the manual and/or watching the tips/tricks videos online.

The Car Rides Very Well Nothing like A Toyota RAV4 .

Overall, this is an excellent SUV in quality, comfort, ride and style.
