2019 Acura RDX vs 2019 Lexus NX 300 in Montreal

Since its inception in 2006, the Acura RDX has become one of the references in the luxury compact SUV category on the West-Island roads from Montreal and those from Laval. However, everything is going to change with the 2019 Lexus NX 300, as it is pushing all the previously known limits even further. Spinelli Lexus Pointe-Claire, your premier Lexus dealership from the West-Island area in Montreal, tells you everything you need to know about the 2019 Lexus NX 300, and why you should select it over a 2019 Acura RDX.

And the very first reason to choose one of our 2019 Lexus NX 300 at Spinelli Lexus Pointe-Claire, located in the Montreal West-Island, is its exterior styling. With its aggressive-looking headlights, its iconic and large Lexus front grille, its raked rear window, and its higher ground clearance, the SUV from Lexus has a very distinctive and charismatic presence on the road. As for the 2019 Acura RDX, its curvy lines, smaller grille and less athletic headlights feel much more conservative when it comes to its exterior design. So if you are looking for bold and sporty lines, then the 2019 Lexus NX 300 is the SUV you want for your drives in Laval, on the Montreal’s North Shore!

Under the front bonnet or the Acura RDX, you will find a 272-hp 2.0-liter turbocharged V-TEC 4-cylinder unit, which delivers more power than the Lexus engine, which features the same architecture and displacement, and its 235 hp. But the additional power of the RDX also has its drawbacks, one of which is an inferior fuel efficiency when compared to the Lexus. Indeed, the latter has a gas consumption of 10.7L/100 km when driven in an urban environment (11.0L/100km for Acura’s SUV) and needs 8.5 liters for 100km on the road (2019 Acura RDX: 8.6L/100km). But as both luxury compact SUVs spend most of their time being driven in the streets of the Montreal West-Island, fuel-efficiency is crucial. Secondly, Lexus offers better powertrain and corrosion perforation warranties (powertrain: 6 years/110 000 km, corrosion perforation: 6 years/unlimited) when compared to the ones for the Acura (Acura’s powertrain warranty: 5 years/100 000 km - Acura’s warranty against perforation due to corrosion: 5 years/unlimited). Hence, thanks to the amazing aforementioned warranties from Lexus, your 2019 NX 300 will give you the utmost peace of mind during each and every one of your commutes between Montreal and Laval on the Montreal’s North Shore!

Inside, the difference is also striking. While the 2019 RDX relies once again on a curvy design, the NX prefers horizontal lines and minimalism for its dash board, and a vertical centre console, which goes right up to the middle of the dash.  If you choose the NX, you will then be able to experience all the Lexus technologies you expect when driving your Lexus SUV between the Montreal West-Island area and Laval, with, for instance, a leather steering-wheel, two-zone automatic air conditioning, heated and power NuLuxe front-seats, and the 8-speaker Enform Audio system and its 8-inch multimedia screen.
