RDX Engine, Transmission, & Fuel Economy
When you could get an automobile with undeniable performance, sporty handling, tons of high-class features, and solid crash scores all for a relatively low price, why would you choose any other vehicle? That is why you should buy or lease a 2012 Acura RDX, available in West Palm Beach, FL. And you can find this vehicle here at Napleton's West Palm Beach Acura, serving Delray Beach, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami, FL. |

| Available in base RDX, RDX SH-AWD, RDX with Technology Package, and RDX SH-AWD with Technology Package trim levels, the 2012 RDX gets its power from a 2.3-liter DOHC i-VTEC turbocharged and intercooled inline-4-cylinder engine that puts out 240 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque. The lone transmission available to drivers is a 5-Speed Sequential SportShift Automatic transmission with Paddle Shifters, Shift Logic Control, and Grade Logic Control. Drivetrains include standard front-wheel drive (FWD) or optional Super Handling All-Wheel-Drive (SH-AWD). With the second-row seating up, cargo space comes in at 27.8 cubic feet; however, with the second-row seating folded down, that number increases to 60.6 cubic feet. Speed tests conducted by Edmunds concluded that the RDX can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in only 6.9 seconds, thereby making it one of the fastest crossover SUVs on the market. Yet this vehicle still manages to have a healthy respect for the environment: The RDX is rated an Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle-2 (ULEV-2) and gets fuel economy of 19 MPG city/24 MPG highway on FWD-equipped models and 17 MPG city/22 MPG highway on models with SH-AWD. |
