High Performance, High Adrenaline

Unlike anything we’ve built before, the 2023 MDX is an SUV with performance so high it can be ranked a Type S. Featuring a 3.0-liter turbo V-6 that cranks out a whopping 355hp, 354lb.-ft of torque*, the MDX Type S delivers power where it matters with rear-biased Super Handling All-Wheel Drive™* (SH-AWD^®) . A double-wishbone front suspension, 21” wheels, and front Brembo^® brakes deliver handling with exhilarating precision.
